02-07-07 - Carter enters lions' den By Paul Findley At the age of 82, Jimmy Carter entered the lion's den. With the publication of his latest book, "Palestine: Peace not Apartheid," he did what a patriot would do: rally Americans to vigorous debate of a critical issue that affects our future.

John McCain (R-Ariz.), who joined the conference by video hookup from Washington.....Israel lacks the capability for a sustained offensive that might be needed to strike the bulk of Iran's facilities.

The fact is, Israel is not in imminent grave danger. That's why it's telling its own people ONE thing, and us quite another.
