ATLANTA - Fourteen members of a Carter Center advisory board who worked to build support for the human rights organization started by former President Jimmy Carter and his wife have resigned in protest over Carter's latest book.
The resignations, announced Thursday, are the latest in a 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 Carter Center fellow and a longtime Carter adviser.

Is that a North Korean beer? Do they have grain to brew beer in N. Korea?
This could get very interesting. The Carter Center has raised 100's of millions of dollars over the years. I bet some of these folks know about things that they have done that might have a negative bearing on the nonprofit status of the center.
There's got to be something more to this. You can't tell me that they're just now finding out who Jimmuh Cahtah really is.
Wow! Who knew Carter was an anti-Semite?
Carter and his friend Fidel Castro.
True. Here's hoping Carter's karma is coming around the bend...
Good news.What's ironic is that so called "academics"(PhD's) support Jimah's book.Why haven't we heard from these folks?
The Cahtah Centah receives taxpayer monies too. They're constantly in the hunt for federal grants and the like.
Jimmy Carter having a few laughs with Venezuela's Marxist Leader, Hugo Chavez...
For years, I have held Jimmy Carter in even worse regard than I do for Bill Clinton.
And every time, he never fails to disappoint me with his third-party foreign policy meddling and his anti-American commentary, verbally and in writing.
I do detest that man. I would never hope for his death - but I do know that when's he gone, it won't bother me too much.
Jimmy Carter drinks toilet water.
Maybe they use fermented rats.
LOL!
LOL!
This is brilliant. Did you do it?

How many advisers were there to begin with?
Anyone have any idea?
14?
140?
