Thompson BS: Lucky to have Jimmy Carter (233* d) RE: BS: Lucky to have Jimmy Carter 23 Feb 24

Wasn't Carter actually successful in the hostage release, but they were released during Reagan's swearing-in?
Carter is right about Israel; its war has destroyed Gaza's education system; more and more I'm reminded of the actions of the 16th- to 18th-century English in Ireland, where they targeted poets and made all non-English education illegal (resulting in the "hedge schools" in which educated people would secretly teach Irish literature, Latin, Greek and mathematics to pupils, with one child keeping a lookout).
In Gaza, Israeli bombing, sniping, etc has so far killed some 100 academics, hundreds of teachers and thousands of students; this piece is from a couple of weeks ago so the numbers are probably larger.
