The article from Jacobin discusses former U.S. President Jimmy Carter's evolving perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, particularly his criticism of Israel's policies towards Palestinians.

His 2006 book, "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid," controversially likened Israel's treatment of Palestinians to apartheid, sparking significant backlash.
