Now the party of John Murtha, forgetting its own history, wants us to "redeploy" out of Iraq and, like Vietnam, declare victory and abandon our allies.

Dunkirk was not a redeployment.

America's ally, the shah of Iran, was one of his first targets, with Carter chastising him for his human rights record and withdrawing America's support. When Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the shah in February 1979, he established the first modern Islamic regime, a role model for the Taliban and the jihadists to follow.

It’s only a few words, yet it says it all.

I wish I knew how to put it on a bumper sticker.

Great article. Thanks for posting it. I liked the phrase about Carter's creation of a "habitat for inhumanity" by his abandonment of the Shah of Iran (I really think Carter is one of our very worst presidents) and the way the article highlights Jamie Gorelick's involvement in preventing us from connecting the dots.

Good piece, but almost too short for the scope of what it's trying to relay.

but during the administration of Jimmy Carter. On taking office in 1977, he declared that advancing "human rights" was among his highest priorities. America's ally, the shah of Iran, was one of his first targets, with Carter chastising him for his human rights record and withdrawing America's support.

Brilliant piece. Every dim in the country should read it, but they won't. Truth is such an inconvenient bother to them, don'tcha know.
