Perhaps. Negotiatiations were underway before Carter got involved. Some say Carter pushed his way in. I don't know, the historians can sort it out. It's likely the credit goes to Sadat and Begin.
.. It’s likely the credit goes to Sadat and Begin...
No Carter fan here. Credit to Begin and Sadat, yes. But, it was done in a neutral setting hosted by a US President.
Sadat and Begin WANTED a peaceful solution. Are you insinuating HAMAS can be a similarly upstanding negotiating partner? And let’s not forget .. Kissinger’s shuttle diplomacy in the earlier part of the decade laid the groundwork for Egypt-Israel deal.
