SIDEBAR
A Letter From Uri Avnery to President Jimmy Carter
Tel-Aviv, April 13, 2008
Dear Mr. President:
I am writing to you on behalf of Gush Shalom,
The Israeli Peace Bloc, to congratulate you
on your wise and courageous decision to meet
in Damascus with Hamas leaders and talk
with them on the ways to promote peace
in our region.
I believe this is an act
whose time had come-or rather,
is already long overdue-and I
would have liked the government
of Israel to avail itself of your
position,
