DUBLIN, Ireland -- Former President Jimmy Carter accused the U.S., Israel and the European Union on Tuesday of seeking to divide the Palestinian people by reopening aid to President Mahmoud Abbas' new government in the West Bank while denying the same to the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize winner who was addressing a human rights conference in Ireland, also said the Bush administration's refusal to accept Hamas' 2006 election victory was "criminal."

President Jimmy Carter should quit pretending to be a foreign policy specialist. We can just be thankful that he isn't president today.

Left unsaid is that he wants Israel to either dissolve or be annihilated.

Dear Jimmuh,

Nobody cares what you think.

Sincerely,

Jimmy Carter is an idiot. To think we ever elected him President. He has a lot of experiencing in favoring Islamofascists. Why, he gave us Khomeini and the Iranian mullahs.

Mr. Carter, you are very observant! We usually give those we like our money, not the ones who are involved with killing us. No Mr. Cater, you’re no longer the incumbent President. Now, please sit down and let me feed you some more soup.

Carter is wrong about everything he says and does, but both of these are terrorists groups and we should not favor one over another.

So Mr. Carter. You want the Western world to treat Hamas just like we treat anyone else? I don’t believe we are used to dealing with “government” spokespeople who come to an interview with black hoods and AK’s and C4 vests on. Would you say the same about treating the NAACP and the KKK the same?
One of those groups USED to wear hoods!

To think we ever elected him President.

It was the Seventies. Men were wearing platform shoes and leisure suits at the time. Electing him wasn't the only dumbazz thing we did then!

"Is he brain dead" I don't know, but what is obvious is that he never met a dictator or terrorist he didn't like. Jimmuh, aka The Worst President in US history, did these things and more:

Gave the Middle East over to the fanatical mullahs.

Gave away the Panama Canal.

Encouraged US's enemies by his fecklessness.

During his Presidency gave us runaway interest rates.

Has been and stil goes on proving to be a dishonest and anti-US ex-pres. Contributed to Murphy's Law Corrolary--Anything bad will get worse, when he stuck his nose into No. Korea foreign policy. And the above is just for starters.
