Iran is the single greatest source of turmoil and upheaval in the Middle East and it boggles the mind to think of the sort of character the Middle East might have evolved into had the Shah not have been abandoned by Jimmy Carter, a disaster of unmitigated proportions of which is still unraveling with exceeding alacrity towards the Shadow of Armageddon.
I was curious as to the particular circumstances of the day back when, wondering in 20/20 hindsight what might have otherwise arisen in having prevented history from taking the disastrous route it took down the path of worst case scenario with the catastrophic loss of Iran as indispensable ally of the West and the ascendancy of the Iranian Terror State
In researching the event, I came across a most startling revelation, one that would put everything that made Jimmy Carter the absolute disgrace, pariah he still is, pale in comparison to the one single alleged event, that is mind-boggling in its perfidy, treason, betrayal of America, and its people to wholly unprecedented degree.
Just to have this act of utter blasphemy by Carter out in the open, spoken about, publicized would serve its purpose of having Carter impugned as the narcissistic, immoral outcast he is, would be fulfilling enough.
Having gone through events of the time I came across a revelation that boggled my mind, of Carter, as it has been reported having made contact with he Soviet KGB in asking for help in defeating Ronald Reagan.
My question to the Freeper Community is, while there is no proof of any such circumstance wherein Carter made contact with the KGB in seeking their help to defeat Ronald Reagan, on merely the act itself, what are, would have been the political, legal, constitutional ramifications of just such an act, that for Carter doesn't seem to be out of the realm of plausibility for someone of his ilk?
Bout the same as Teddy Kennedy contacting them to help defeat Carter.
Jimmy Carter is a lifelong Marxist traitor!
Well obviously you are as big a moron as he is!
(And that's saying plenty!)
Elect a liberal, the world goes to hell in a hand basket.
The destabiliztion of Iran was funded almost wholly by the Soviets, through the KGB.
And don’t forget, Ted Kennedy also asked the Soviets for help defeating Reagan, as well.
A LOT of today’s Social and political problems, including our now National Socialist Democrat-run Government, and the shadow party infrastructure that put it in power, can be traced directly to Soviet money from the 60’s through the mid-80’s.
The hostage rescue mission failed PRECISELY because of the actions of Jimmy Carter.
He did not have the spine to be Commander in Chief and select the most elite group to perform the rescue. Every branch wanted to participate so they could get some of the glory - a true CiC would have told them all to shut up and sit down, that XXXXXX elite unit was going to do the job - that this was not about glory and acclaim, that it was about American lives PERIOD!
They planned with far to narrow margins for error - according to accounts I read at the time they should have had more, and more appropriately equipped helicopters. This type of planning is what one would expect from a mixed bag of egotistical generals/admirals trying to grab their glory.
Carter did a better job regarding the hostages than did Clinton - LOL - praise so faint it is hardly audible!
The reason that rescue attempt gets no respect is because it should never been necessary, except under the leadership of an impotent fool. The second it became clear that the Iranian government was behind the taking of hostages from an embassy, the Iranian government was at war with us. They should have been scared of their shadows if a real man was running the show. You don't rescue hostages in the dead of night, you tell the rogue government what you are going to do if they don't give them back and then you do it.
And the Iranians knew they were dealing with a pansy, which was why they gave the hostages back the second Ronald Reagan became commander in chief.
While this guy seems to has atoned for his sins in convincing fashion that given the chance would not vote for PPP (Plains Peanut Prevaricator) again, there are those who would vote for Obama in perpetuity.
I hope Jimmy Carter burns in hell. Sitting next to the Kennedy’s (all of them).
I wholeheartedly share your sentiments but no such group is complete without the Abhorrent Abomination that is GayMuzzie, whom I revile without qualification, more than the Kennnedys, Carter combined.
Teddy did ask for Soviet help to defeat Reagan.
It's worse than that, Carter himself was insisting it be a combined service operation. When the Navy helicopter pilots were washed out (the Delta commander wanting to courts marshal one of them for cowardice)Carter insisted with replacing them with Marine pilots, the helicopter pilots are what destroyed the mission at the gathering site and kept Delta from ever even getting started on their mission.
one Kennedy, many Kennedys. No apostrophe.
Kennedy went to the KGB in 1982. When later confronted, one of his staffers replied, “In the quest for world peace, one can’t be choosy about one’s allies.”
My wife & I went to Arlington last year. Kennedy’s grave is guarded 24/7. All the cemetery street signs point you either to the Tomb of the Unknowns or to the Kennedy grave complex.
I must admit, I used to be a Jimmy Carter supporter. I voted for him to be re-elected. I cringe when people always refer to the Hostage Rescue Attempt as "Ill Fated", "Catastrophic", "Jimmy Carter's Disaster", when Carter is to be commended for at least actually going through with the attempt, while someone like Bill Clinton allowed the US to be attacked numerous times, only to respond when Monica appeared on television... The mission did not fail due to the actions of the men or Jimmy Carter, it failed because God did not want us to win that day.Written like a devout muzzie. Also, this dates from the period when GWB was POTUS.
