A human rights crime (Jimmy Carter blames Jews for anti-Semitism)
The Guardian ^ | 5/8/08 | Carter

Posted on 05/08/2008 12:43:18 PM PDT by pabianice

The world must stop standing idle while the people of Gaza are treated with such cruelty

The world is witnessing a terrible human rights crime in Gaza, where a million and a half human beings are being imprisoned with almost no access to the outside world. An entire population is being brutally punished.

This gross mistreatment of the Palestinians in Gaza was escalated dramatically by Israel, with United States backing, after political candidates representing Hamas won a majority of seats in the Palestinian Authority parliament in 2006. The election was unanimously judged to be honest and fair by all international observers.

Israel and the US refused to accept the right of Palestinians to form a unity government with Hamas and Fatah and now, after internal strife, Hamas alone controls Gaza. Forty-one of the 43 victorious Hamas candidates who lived in the West Bank have been imprisoned by Israel, plus an additional 10 who assumed positions in the short-lived coalition cabinet.

Let the Muslim nations take them in. If it’s so oppressive, let their fellow Muslims absorb them, just like the USA has done (Vietnamese, political asylums, etc.)

IMO, Jimmah is a prime example of Liberal human waste. He’s a disgrace to the American people and to this nation. He, and his fellow Liberals, are a national disgrace beyond words.

I once supported this guy...back when I was a young idiot. Now I am older and no longer an idiot.

You see, I am a Recovering_Democrat.

You mean that, other than its small population, it's just like Cuba, North Korea, and other Communist hellholes that Jimmy Carter adores?

The Cahtah Centah is on the Arab payroll to the tune of millions of dollars each year. Jimmah is bought and paid for.

That’s almost like blaming Georgia for Jimmy Carter.

Only 41 out of 43? Hmmm, the IDF is slipping.

Or...the other two are dead or in Gaza...under "house" arrest. Hehehe.

In seriousness, look Jimmy, we punished the German people for creating Hitler and waging war, and not just their soldiers. We firebombed their cities and killed many tens of thousands of them until they wanted no more. Did the same to the Japanese. Now those two countries are "good" Germans and "good" Japanese and have been for decades.

It's time we made some good Islamics.

About all I can say for Carter, is that he leaves this loyal U.S. Citizen fumbling for the right words to describe what he really is.

Normal terms fail when it comes to his treachery.

If Carter was a wife beater he'd blame her also.

Don’t pick on poor Jimmy.

He’s just trying to be a role model for Obama.

It is one thing for other leaders to defer to the US in the crucial peace negotiations, but the world must not stand idle while innocent people are treated cruelly. It is time for strong voices in Europe, the US, Israel and elsewhere to speak out and condemn the human rights tragedy that has befallen the Palestinian people.

Ol' Jimmuh's really obsessed with the Jews. There are Christian Sudanese being murdered by the thousands by Muslim Sudanese but Jimmuh doesn't worry about that. In fact, any Muslim group can kill Christians all day long and Jimmuh won't say a word.

However, if it involves Muslims vs. Jews then Jimmuh springs into action. Don't ever look for him in an Israeli hospital visiting innocent Israeli children bombed by his beloved Palestinians, he's too busy cheering on the Palestinians for whatever they want to do to the Israelis.

Carter needs to be put in an Argentina nursing home with hopefully a few other Nazi anti-semites because he really hates Jews.

"Carter is revealed as just another vicious anti-Semite and America hater."

Revealed as? He always has been. The worst part is that to add insult to injury, he plays the "Who, me? What did I do" game when the Israeli government complains about his anti-Semitic screeds.

"being imprisoned with almost no access to the outside world"

What do they mean? Is Israel somehow blocking their access to the outside world? I thought Israel was simply shutting them out of Israel. And Egypt was shutting them out of Egypt. Do they not have sea access? And communications? And if they don't have communications is that because they spend their money on weapons to attack Israel instead of communication systems?

Muslim nations don’t want that trash inside their borders. Hell, their “fearless leader” Yasser was there because his home country, Egypt, KICKED him out.
