#MayBookFowers A fascinating and in depth account of the thirteen days spent at Camp David , Maryland in 1978 where US President Jimmy Carter arranged & brokered a #Peace accord between Egypt and Israel. Lawrence Wright did a phenomenal job researching and providing background information on all the key players. He made it very clear what each individual, as well as each country had to gain and lose by agreeing to undertake such a momentous task.
Izai.Amorim So sad to see that the lesson has been forgotten. Two-state solution seems dead and this is no good news for the parties involved. 8y
Cinfhen This particular peace accord has actually remained ~ so hopefully our present leaders can look to our past leaders for guidance and recognize the value and importance of compromise 💜💜 @Izai.Amorim (edited) 8y
Libby1 I agree, @Cinfhen and @Izai.Amorim . It's sad but we have to hope. There are many unseen and unsung people working for peace. Let's hope they can break through. 8y

Izai.Amorim @Libby1 @Cinfhen Yes, we should never stop hoping. And respecting people's right to make mistakes and learn from them. Europeans killed each other for centuries. It took many small and 2 big wars to make them see the light and realize that there better ways to live their lives. 🤞 8y
Cinfhen @Izai.Amorim @Libby1 I'll never stop hoping & praying for peace ✌🏽 ☮️ 8y
Reggie Have you ever seen Adam Sandler's Don't Mess With the Zohan? Its a funny/dumb movie about an Israeli counterterrorist agent who fakes his death to go live out his dream. There's this behind the scenes thing where the extras that were from Egypt and Israel hated each other on set but during breaks got to know each other and realized they were just people trying to live lives. It was nice. 8y
Cinfhen The Zohan was ridiculously funny 😂😂every single stereotype rolled into one movie! But I did not see the outtakes... really nice to know the actors bonded @Reggie Maybe Adam Sandler can handle the peace negotiations 8y
Reggie I'll never look at Lanie Kazan the same way ever again lol. 8y
Cinfhen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 @Reggie 8y
