Yeshiva University's Cardozo law school is giving a 'peace award' to one of this generation's greatest anti-Semites: Jimmy the Dhimmi Carter.
The Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution is honored to present President Jimmy Carter with its annual International Advocate for Peace Award. President Carter will speak on "America as Global Mediator." Jimmy Carter served as president from 1977 to 1981. During his time in office, he oversaw significant foreign policy accomplishments, including the Panama Canal treaties, the Camp David Accords, the treaty of peace between Egypt and Israel, the SALT II treaty with the Soviet Union, and the establishment of U.S. diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China.
In 1982, President Carter and his wife Rosalynn reinvented the American "post-presidency" by founding the Carter Center. Actively guided by President Carter, the nonpartisan and nonprofit Center addresses national and international issues of public policy. Specifically, the center works to resolve conflict, promote democracy, protect human rights, and prevent disease and other afflictions. President Carter and the Carter Center have engaged in conflict mediation in countless areas around the world, including Ethiopia and Eritrea (1989), Bosnia (1994), the Great Lakes region of Africa (1995-96), Sudan and Uganda (1999), Venezuela (2002-2003), Nepal (2004-2008), and Ecuador and Colombia (2008).
President Carter's post-presidential peace-building efforts were recognized in 2002 when he was awarded the Nobel Prize "for his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development." He is the only American president to receive the Nobel Prize for work done primarily after his time in office.Oy.... Elder of Ziyon has a list of some of Carter's 'achievements - read the whole thing.
A law professor at another university wrote to me that the university and even the law school likely have little control over this, and cannot stop the journal in question (known as the 'Cardozo Journal of International Conflict Resolution') from doing whatever they please. I disagree. They're using campus facilities and they can be stopped by the university from using campus facilities for such invidious purposes.
Would they give an award to Ahmadinejad? Oh wait, another university in New York did just that....
And yes, I know, not everyone at Cardozo is Jewish (as one of my friends put it, Cardozo represents Yeshiva about as much as Notre Dame represents the Catholic Church). Well, here's the Editor in Chief of the 'Journal of International Conflict Resolution.' Decide for yourselves.
