The fallout continues over former President Jimmy Carter's book, Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.
ATLANTA (
AP) - Fourteen members of an advisory board to Jimmy Carter's human rights organization resigned on Thursday to protest his new book, which criticizes Israeli policy in the Palestinian territories.
The resignations from The Carter Center board are the latest backlash against the former president's book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid," which has drawn fire from Jewish groups, been attacked by fellow Democrats and led to the resignation last month of Kenneth Stein, a center fellow and a longtime Carter adviser.
Funny, but Carter's book title implies that Israel has the right to control territories the Palestinians claim as their own.
