A new op-ed by Linda Stamato reflects on the legacy of Jimmy Carter, highlighting his pivotal role in the 1978 Camp David Accords which forged a historic peace agreement between Egypt and Israel under challenging circumstances. Following the former president’s passing at age 100, Stamato emphasizes his courage, humanity, and unwavering belief in the possibility of peace, even when others doubted.
