Carter pressured the Shah of Iran to recognize more human rights liberalize Iran, which wasn't a bad idea, but when the Islamic Revolution tried to overthrow the Shah, despite the fact that Carter kept promising assistance, it was never given, and we not only didn't help the Shah, we abandoned him and refused to even allow him into the country.

I am sure that this craven, dishonorable behavior encouraged Islamists to think we're degenerate weaklings.

Whatever hateful I may say about Carter, it goes double for Zbigniew Brzezinski, Carter's puppet master in foreign policy.
