The United States registered an official protest with Israel against its ambassador to the United Nations, Dan Gillerman, for calling former U.S. President Jimmy Carter an "enemy of Israel" prior to Carter's recent visit to the region.
A senior Foreign Ministry source said Saturday that the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv asked that Gillerman be made aware of the U.S. administration's dissatisfaction with the disrespectful comments about the former U.S. President.

Why? It’s the 100% Gospel truth!
call a spade a spade. jimmah has been an enemy of government since he was potus
Calling a kettle black ! The Israeli diplomat is correct.
How about the disrespectful actions of the former U.S. President?
Who’s behind that official US protest? Certainly not many if not most of the American people.
How many other former US presidents have had to be defended against Israel? Probably. . . NONE! Jimmah is a stupid old moron.
Seems Jimmy has once again succeeded in doing what he does best: worsen relations between the US and Israel.
Oy gevalt! Did he call Bill Clinton an old letch too? Lemme at him, lemme at him!
“U.S. fumes after Israeli envoy to UN envoy brands Carter ‘a bigot’”
Um, I’m not fuming.
He’s a stupid idiot POS!!! Fume some more.
As an American, I withdraw our protest.
I doubt any part of this episode will dissuade Carter from embarrassing himself and the United States wherever he goes. Actually, that isn’t quite right. No amount of stupidity can ever embarrass a liberal.
I’m fuming alright...but not at the Israeli ambassador who only spoke the direct truth. I am fuming at the likes of Carter and his enablers in and out of government. What an absolute disgrace.
Uh, I’m in the US and I’m not fuming about someone calling Jimmuh Carter a Jew hating, muslim terrorist loving, blame America first scumbag communist. If the shoe fits.....
It’s about time Carter was outed for what he really is. Now lets look into his financials!
Who can I email in Israel to express my STRONG support for the Israeli ambassador’s position.
If anything, calling Carter a bigot is far to kind.
“A senior Foreign Ministry source said Saturday that the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv asked that Gillerman be made aware of the U.S. administration’s dissatisfaction with the disrespectful comments about the former U.S. President.”
The US should be made of my extreme dissatifaction with the state department.. the only thing that they have accomplished in 60 years is that they make good passports, other than that, they have accomplished nothing. Oh, not so, they have caused the death of millions of Americans by their arrogant stupidity.
I don’t know anyone that’s “fuming”.
Sometimes the truth hurts.
It seems to me that Carter is doing "W"s bidding to start WWIII
