Peace with Egypt (1979)

Arafat

April 26, 1979

a Dry Bones cartoon: Egypt, Israel, Carter, White House, Peace Agreement, Peace, 1979,
Today's Golden Odie cartoon was published in the Jerusalem Post on April 26, 1979. Egypt and Israel had just exchanged the Peace documents.

The cartoon is about the American President, Jimmie (one-term) Carter, and "Zbigie" ( my nickname for his National Security Adviser Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzezinski).

The joke was that Jimmy and his top adviser had no real idea about the Middle East and its peoples ... sort of like the current rsident of the White House.
