Menachem Begin was awarded the 1978 Nobel Peace Prize, together with Anwar Sadat, for their work in laying a foundation for future peace in the Middle East. The framework, reached at Camp David, was facilitated by President Jimmy Carter. The Nobel award called Carter the masterbuilder responsible for the bridge that had to be built between Egypt and Israel. Carter would have won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 with Begin and Sadat but for a missed nomination deadline. Jimmy Carter was later awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.
