Carter in NK accusing US and SK of human rights violations: Useful Idiot: While in North Korea Jimmy Carter Accuses U.S. of “Human Rights Violations” He’s really fighting hard to retain the title of “worst president ever.” [ Yeah, but just wait till Obama is out telling the world how much he really loathes America. After losing the election, Obama will pardon Mumia and for all we know every non-white imprisoned in the US. Will come out as a reborn Muslim. And will denounce the US. ] (Politico) — Wrapping up his visit this week to Pyongyang, former President Jimmy Carter says relations between North Korea and South Korea are “currently at rock bottom.” Nonetheless, he said he believes the North is committed to getting talks underway. Carter was joined on the three-day trip by former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari, former Norwegian Prime Minister Gro Harlem Brundtland and former Irish President Mary Robinson. …Carter also used his trip to North Korea to observe the country’s food rationing system. That the United States and South Korea have chosen “to deliberately withhold food aid to the North Korean people because of political or military issues not related is really indeed a human rights violation,” he said. weaselzippers.us
