Jimmy Carter

I and about 25 others saw something in the air that changed colors and was round.

That our country for the first time in my lifetime has abandoned basic principles of human rights.

I recognize that Israel is a wonderful democracy with freedom of speech and equality of treatment under the law between Arab Israelis and Jewish Israelis.

The book is about Palestine. And most of those reviews are referring to Israel. The book is not about Israel.

I don't think so. Maybe he'll change his mind when he sees the recommendation of the upcoming committee Monday morning.

I don't agree with that at all.

I would prefer a much more rapid withdrawal myself and I don't know what the, you know, what the recommendation will be until I see the written report.

I think that sends a clear signal to Maliki that we won't be there indefinitely and my hope is that they'll be a commitment by the world community including the controversial nations of Syria and Iran.

But my hope is that there will be some clarification of what the United States is doing now and what they will be doing in the future.

The federal, state and local government process to get the money appropriated to the families so they can start rebuilding their homes is a total disaster.

I hope that this book, which is -- has a provocative title, but I don't consider provocative to be a bad word.

I don't think the administration has ever picked up the ball, much less dropped it.

But inside Palestine, outside of Israel, where the Israelis occupying forces are there, the persecution and deprivation of the Palestinians is horrendous.

I think the last report I saw was that 28 loans have been made for people to rebuild their own homes.

Inside Israel, there's no semblance of apartheid. It's a wonderful democracy, with everyone treated the same.

The title was very carefully chosen by me. And the first word is the most important. It's Palestine. The land of the Palestinians. It doesn't refer to Israel at all.

The Israeli government has rejected all the key issues that are included in the road map for peace.

I respectfully disagree with what President Bush had to say. I don't think that the safety of America depends at all on the extended presence of U.S. troops in Iraq.

Let's just let this go.

It is valuable for the world to see two Democrats and two Republicans assembled together, all honoring the great nation that has permitted us to serve.

We cannot lead if our leaders mislead.

I take full responsibility...

There was no reason for us to become involved in Iraq recently. That was a war based on lies and misrepresentations from London and from Washington, claiming falsely that Saddam Hussein was responsible for the 9/11 attacks, claiming…

Georgia would be ridiculed if the proposal goes through.

Turmoil in Iraq and Afghanistan are fair game issues for Democrats in the 2004 campaign. He also criticized the White House for a quote, "overly optimistic assessment of Iraq."
