Jimmy Carter Speaks Against Israel

I seem to have degenerated into name-calling (at least I tell you why) when it comes to certain Marxist Celebs and Elected Critters. Well, former President Jimmy Carter has spoken to Der Speigel, of which I have a snippet below:






SPIEGEL: You also mentioned the hatred for the United States throughout the Arab world which has ensued as a result of the invasion of Iraq. Given this circumstance, does it come as any surprise that Washington's call for democracy in the Middle East has been discredited?

Carter: No, as a matter of fact, the concerns I exposed have gotten even worse now with the United States supporting and encouraging Israel in its unjustified attack on Lebanon.

SPIEGEL: But wasn't Israel the first to get attacked?

Carter: I don't think that Israel has any legal or moral justification for their massive bombing of the entire nation of Lebanon. What happened is that Israel is holding almost 10,000 prisoners, so when the militants in Lebanon or in Gaza take one or two soldiers, Israel looks upon this as a justification for an attack on the civilian population of Lebanon and Gaza. I do not think that's justified, no.





While researching what others had to say after I posted the above, I found this response. This guy is spot on.
Here is what The Blogosphere is saying about this article.


I am starting to see that these people are more dangerous to America than the terrorists. Their words and ideas need to be shared with the general public, so that they and their ideas may be fully discredited.


I think I can point to Jimmy Carter's attitude toward Israel to be very revealing about his innermost motivations.

Jimmy carter is an old man living in an alternate reality where he is the hero. He is a pacifist stuck in a bankrupt ideology and, as long as so called journalists keep giving him creedence, he is more than happy to use his ex-POTUS status to interfere in world affairs. He is a meddling old fool and cannot be seen by anyone with a lick of sense as anything but.

Jimmy Carter is an old man. However, he could live until he is 200 and people would still remember his grossly incompetent and culpably negligent tenure as president. He has no cred. in the US and should have little to no cred. outside the US. I personally have issues with the current administration. However, Bush can manage to get America's wildly expensive military machine to work in a desert. That was a task the hapless Carter could not achieve.

What really scares me is that alot of people hold him up to be a hero.
I can still remeber tha day in 7th Grade when the hostages were released. That was the first step I took toward conservatism.
As to this administration, their ignorance on the illegal alien situation and big spending are gonna bite the Republican Party in the butt.
