IF THEY DIDN'T PULP CARTER'S "PEACE NOT APARTHEID"... At The Corner, Stanley Kurtz writes:

Lets assume, strictly for the sake of argument, that the controversial statements that have led Cambridge University Press to withdraw and pulp all unsold copies of Alms for Jihad are indeed false. Should an entire book be made to disappear from the face of the earth because it contains several false statements? Is it appropriate for the world’s libraries to withdraw all copies of Alms for Jihad from the shelf? Is there any precedent for this sort of response to a libel suit? Are there competing precedents? [emphasis added]

Well, Simon & Schuster didn't do it for Carter's book--and CAMERA helpfully provides a list of Carter's errors: not only the ones he normally makes during interviews, but the ones in his book, with page numbers.
