“They compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.” (Psalms 109:3)
Former US President Jimmy Carter weighed in this week on recent events in Paris, telling interviewers perhaps the “Palestinian problem” is partly to blame. Speaking to television personality Jon Stewart Monday night, he said the situation in the West Bank and Gaza “aggravates people” with any connections there. he also told Huffington Post Live host and college professor Marc Lamont Hill these events could be seen as “a positive turning point in some respects”.
Speaking to Stewart on The Daily Show, Carter speculated, “Well, one of the origins for [this extremism] is the Palestinian problem and, you know, this aggravates people who are affiliated in any way with the Arab people who live in the West Bank and Gaza, what they are doing now, what’s being done to them.” Carter spoke of a “new evolutionary development in terrorism.”
Sympathizers with European passports travel to Syria, “stay there for a few months and learn how to be a terrorist and then they come back through Turkey and you know they have been there and you know who they are. And I think this event in Paris is going to waken up the people in charge of security to watch those people more closely than they have in the past – and not single out all of the Muslims in the country,” he said.
The 34th President of the US regaled Stewart with stories from the Camp David Accords, where he negotiated a peace agreement between Israel and Egypt in 1978. Stewart asked Carter to compare the mood then and now. Carter acknowledged that he is “disheartened” with the current tension between Israel and the Palestinians, but while he called it “distant”, he said he still has hope.
For peace to happen, though, “Israelis have to withdraw from the West Bank and Gaza and East Jerusalem as well,” Carter said, adding, “The Palestinians have to make sure that they commit themselves without equivocation to the freedom of Israel to live in peace alongside of them.”
Jimmy Carter, with his wisdom on “the Jewish problem”.
Only an idiot like Jimmy Carter could look at mass murder and think its “a positive turning point”.
It’s the “Jeeeeewsss” fault! Right Jimmah? Jimmah would have made a great Nazi.
Yeah, Jimmy overlooks the whole Middle East problem HE STARTED by getting rid of the secular Iranian leader and putting in the radical Islamic ones.
That was the start of this cancer, not Israel.
Look in the mirror Jimmy, it was YOU that birthed this.
Then Clinton refused Bin Laden several times when offered to him which caused Clinton to let thousands die in New York. Because Clinton didn’t kill Bin Laden or take him in the several times he could we have the War on Terror and the extra trillion or so in expense from war and having security enhanced in our country.
I’m saying if Carter and Clinton didn’t F it all up we would not be in this mess today, and France could say the same for them. If Carter and Clinton didn’t F it up there would have been none of this in France either.
Guys if you want pure video gold go to YouTube and look at the 1980 concession speech Jimbo Carter made after Ronald Reagan crushed his sorry behind. He looked like a man who was utterly destroyed and frankly he deserved it!
Carter is as anti-Semitic as Obama.
Jimmah hates the Jews from way back.
I wish he would just shut up.
When he and the Castro brothers shed their mortal coil, I’ll have to break open some Billy beer.
Yes he is. So much so, if he could get away with it, all those Habitat for Humanity houses he built would have covenants and deed restrictions forbidding them from being sold to Jews.
This clown, like Clinton, won’t go away. Former Presidents with class, just faded into their retirement. But not these jagoffs, they need to be front and center. We can’t get rid of them, they are like gum on your shoe.
Do we know sure he isn't one? Actually, I am thinking he probably was more of a fan of the Soviet Union.
:-)
A DUMBA$$ back then.. an even bigger DUMBA$$ now.
Even better, one can find network news coverage of that election night on youtube....they were absolutely stunned.
carter is an America-hating incompetent. He loves our enemies and hates our friends.
I wish congress would pass a law putting a gag order on past Presidents who are no longer in charge but continuously undermine the current President.
This is bad-—The end days for Israel might be at hand. Like the Christian Kingdoms of the Crusades (they lasted 200 years) the Jewish state may well be doomed. In time the Islamic population will swarm over them. Israel must win every war—one failure and they will be slaughtered. We should make plans to transport the whole population to America before that bloodbath. When they leave they can detonate Atomic weapons over Jerusalem and blow it into a crater. Let the Islamic people win—they will never stop til they do.
