Carter a rare peacekeeper

This is in regard to the editorial ``Carter in Bosnia,'' and the repulsive political cartoon [``Mr. Karadzic says, after this is over, he would love to teach your Sunday school class.''] Dec. 20.

Do you recognize a fellow American Christian who is a widely acknowledged international peacekeeper? Such people are few and far between; we should support, not disparage and distort their efforts, even though they are not diplomatically sophisticated. Henry C. Fitpatrick, North Plymouth, Mass.
