JIMMY CARTER: ISRAEL BASHER Former President Jimmy Carter has weighed in on Israel's war with Hezbollah, and his position really shouldn't come as a surprise. Carter says the situation in the Middle East has now gotten worse, thanks to the Bush Administration's support of Israel in its attack on Hezbollah. But that's not how Jimmy phrased it. He said "...the concerns I exposed have gotten even worse now with the United States supporting and encouraging Israel in its unjustified attack on Lebanon." That's right, the attack on Lebanon. Not Hezbollah. This is significant, and is spoken exactly the way the Islamic terrorists want it. Hezbollah won the propaganda war in its conflict with Israel because of this small detail. They were able to portray, along with the help of a willing mainstream media, that Israel was attacking poor, innocent Lebanon. The fact that Israel was going after the Islamic terrorist killers of Hezbollah, who happened to be in Lebanon...well that's just a small, insignificant detail. But Carter wasn't done there...when asked about the current administration, he couldn't resist a little Bush-bashing. He claims that the United States permitted torture to take place at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib. He also continued to recite the fantasy that the Bush Administration ever said that anyone who doesn't agree with them isn't patriotic. As you read this ...or listen to this .... remember: It as Jimmy Carter who almost single-handedly destroyed our intelligence-gathering capabilities when he was president. It is no stretch to say that if Carter had never been president 9/11 might not have happened, such was the extent of his decimation of our intelligence services. Same old Jimmy Carter. Some things never change. Too bad the former president wasn't asked about the fact that Islamic terrorism was born on his watch. boortz
