Abraham MaslowI think what’s going on in Guantanamo Bay and other places is a disgrace to the U.S.A. I wouldn’t say it’s the cause of terrorism, but it has given impetus and excuses to potential terrorists to lash out at our country and justify their despicable acts.

I’m an artist too.
Jimmy CarterThe Middle East is hopeful. There’s hope there.
