Jimmy Carter is, quite simply, a whack job

The QandO Blog

The latest from the greatest foreign policy president in a century [/sarcasm]:

<<< The United States, Israel and the European Union must end their policy of favoring Fatah over Hamas, or they will doom the Palestinian people to deepening conflict between the rival movements, former US President Jimmy Carter said Tuesday.

Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate who was addressing a conference of Irish human rights officials, said the Bush administration’s refusal to accept the 2006 election victory of Hamas was "criminal." >>>


Actually, Mr. Carter, the "criminal" portion of that election belonged to Hamas which is a terrorist organization. As you might imagine, that’s colored our relationship, or lack thereof, with them.

Of course, I would assume, given Carter’s point about Hamas that if, say NYC would elect various mafia members to the city council and other elective positions that he would feel compelled to deal with them the same way he would any other elected government because, well, there were elections for heaven sake.

Elections don’t legitimize thugs, criminals and terrorists Mr. Carter, although you spent most of your days trying to prove otherwise.
