On Sunday, Carter attended St. Andrew's Church and later paid tribute at the Yad Vashem memorial to the 6 million Jewish victims of Nazism. Wearing a yarmulka, he placed a wreath at the memorial and observed that it was impossible to understand Israel without recognizing what was symbolized there...
