Global War On Terrorism: Jimmy Carter says it's "inhumane and counterproductive" for Israel "to punish civilian populations" for Hezbollah's aggression. If you hadn't helped overthrow the Shah of Iran, Jimmy, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Our former president made this statement in a Washington Post op-ed in which the man who helped midwife the habitat for inhumanity that is Iran spouted the standard liberal dogma about cease-fires and something called "lasting peace."
He forgets that Hezbollah is the spawn of Iran, and Iran is the spawn of his failed foreign policy. Carter, upon taking office in 1977, 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.
When Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the shah in February 1979, he established the first modern Islamofascist regime, a role model for the Taliban and the jihadists to follow, such as al-Qaida and Hezbollah.
While Carter claims it is "inhumane" for Israel to "punish" civilians, he forgets it is a war crime to use them as human shields. Hezbollah is guilty of war crimes, and Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's chief terrorist, is a war criminal for the indiscriminate killing of Israeli civilians and for using Lebanese civilians as human shields.
As Israeli Defense Force videos show, Hezbollah likes to park its Katyusha rocket launchers next to apartment buildings like the one destroyed in Qana. The IDF showed the world press footage of Hezbollah rocket launchers being driven into Qana, parked behind and alongside civilian buildings, from where they would launch their rockets against Israeli civilians in Kiryat Shemona, Afula and Ma'alot.

Carter is despicable. Even terrorists are defended by Jimmy.
Way too kind to Carter.
Jimmy, you ignorant slut.
Jimmy Carter was a cancerous bowel movement that grew out of the 1960s and 70s malaise in this country.
Ronald Reagan was the radiation treatment.
bttt
Carter is not only one of the worst Presidents the U.S. has ever had, he is hands down the worst ex-President we have ever had.
Although he was never quoted, I wonder if Jimmy, like McKinney, blamed his defeat on the Jooooos?
bump
LOL, how true!! One of my supreme wishes is that SOMEBODY would stick Jimmah and Madeline Albright would end up together as shut-ins with Helen Thomas having to change their bedpans!
I like your thinking
BTW, welcome to FR.
What a maroon!
When Carter ran against Ford, my Dad put a President Ford bumper sticker on the front bumper of my brother's (high school social studies teacher) car. He always pulled into his parking spot facing the school. It took him several weeks to figure out why none of the other teachers wouldn't talk to him. He was the loneliest guy at his school.
Jimmy has no other option. If he criticizes terrorists then he criticizes his failed presidency, which the author aptly reminds us ushered in the modern terrorist nations. If you haven't noticed, Jimmy spends all his time convincing the world he's not the incompentent POS he really is.
It's amazing how little time we had to relax and enjoy the end of the soviet empire before we had to take on the religon of peace. Jimmah can go to he!!.
Jimmy Carter is a dangerous fool who has harmed the cause of freedom everywhere. Whether or not he's also paid off by international terrorists makes him no less a fool.
