Carter stated that the debate over Israel's treatment of Palestinians was skewed by pro-Israel lobbyists, calling for a more comprehensive understanding of the issue at hand.
In an interview, Carter noted that the restrictions imposed on Palestinians were reminiscent of apartheid, stating it creates conditions that are even worse than those experienced in South Africa.
Upon releasing his book, Carter faced significant backlash for using the word 'apartheid' in connection to Israel, leading to resignations from his advisory board in protest.
Carter's intention in using provocative language was to shed light on the plight of Palestinians and the building of settlements in occupied territories.
