FORMER US president Jimmy Carter has attacked outgoing British Prime Minister Tony Blair for his "blind" support of the Iraq war, describing it as a "major tragedy for the world".
In an interview today with BBC radio, Mr Carter was asked how he would describe Mr Blair's attitude to US President George W. Bush. He replied: "Abominable. Loyal, blind, apparently subservient.
"I think that the almost undeviating support by Great Britain for the ill-advised policies of President Bush in Iraq have been a major tragedy for the world."
Mr Blair, who arrived in Baghdad today on an unannounced visit, has suffered politically and personally since declaring his support for Mr Bush after the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.
His backing of the war despite massive public opposition divided his governing Labour Party while the absence of weapons of mass destruction - the basis for war - and apparent manipulation of intelligence eroded trust.
There was further discontent last year when he joined Mr Bush in refusing to back international calls on Israel to stop its bombing of Lebanon.

The greatest dangers facing America today in this new time of war:
1) IRAN with a Nuclear Weapon
2) The GULLIBILITY of the American People
...Political Columnist THOMAS SEWELL on Salem Broadcasting Conservative Talk Radio-May 2007
“It is time for the World to start imagining a World without an America in it”
...IRAN recently stated publically
“There might not even be an America around in 300 Years”
...Former President CLINTON stated publically after the Attacks of 9/11
And thus,
...THE Battle for the 21st Century has been publically defined...
...by our Enemies both Without & Within.

As long as God’s seems to be in the mood to lift people up to the bosom of Abraham (the Rev. Falwell), could we all put in a special request that he take this wrinkled old gasbag Carter off our hands and planet?
ENOUGH ALREADY.
AND MORE THAN ENOUGH!
Carter is a traitor to freedom/
Cuck Farter!!!
I can get to LA easily but may need instructions from there...;-)
A big reason the world in in the middle of world wide terrorism is because oh him.Shut the F up Jimmy ..go away !
LA is a start anyway,just go east about 2500 miles and you’re in the neighborhood.
Carter has spent the last 27 years trying to convince us that he was not the worst President. He has failed. History will remember Carter was a joke as president.
Stupid old fart! GO AWAY!
You know what I would LOVE George W. Bush to be able to do?
Preside over the state funeral for this miserable washed up wrinkly fraud of a failure, Peanut-Farmer Jimmy Carter!
Now THAT would be justice!
We need six bonafide certified certifiable old farts as pallbearers:
Dan Rather, Walter Cronkite, Mike Dukakis: there’s three.
The funeral could be concelebrated: The Rev. Jesse Jackson and the Rev. Al Sharpton!
Music: Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young (whichever of those waste-oids is still alive); Barbara Streisand doing a solo of AVE, PARIAH . . .
This has possibilities . . .
I think Jimmy Carter is experiencing the Toxic effects of too much Peanut dust!
Jimmie was a major deciding factor in my being a conservative so he had his good points in a backhandsed kind of compliment way.
Well, when it comes to any “major tragedy for the world”, all I can say is that Jimmah can certainly offer an expert opinion.
true, but he is just pure evil.
I wonde if Jimmy still consults Amy on his Nuclear policy....
Mate, you could be director - or floor manager, at least!
