>>So why is Carter, a longtime friend of Israel and the Jewish people, being smeared as an anti-Semite...

Maybe because he IS an anti-Semite!

[concentric circles]

This is some of that fake internet content that we're always being warned about, right?

Israel is an occupying power that for 40 years has been oppressing an indigenous people

I really think this deserves a MEGA barf-alert.

Madison tried very hard to add a sister-city relationship with Rafah to relationships with El Salvador and Nicaragua (cause of Reagan), Cuba and Vietnam, but even Madison residents didn't go for that.

I prefer to think of them as Palestinian-occupied Israeli territories.

Odd, Carter and Clintoon are trying to break off some people from the Southern Baptist using the "judge not" approach. But Carter sure does a lot of judging for someone that condems judging.

Judge Rightly is what the Bible says...

They both know right wing Christians are bigots, they consider that factual, not judgement.

Yep

A Good True History Of PALESTINE

[hinckley buzzard]

We have Murtha Durbin Pelosi Carter et al, Israel has this idiot woman and a few others of their own. Big deal.

LOL< like the judgement you just pronouced?

Jesus promised his followers, "you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. And then many will be offended" (Mat. 24:9-10).

Offending unbelievers is Christlike in the deepest sense, deal with it.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, I suppose it must be a peanut.

What kind of CRAP article is this? You can't be a friend to Israel while at the same time pushing them to give up what is rightfully theirs. Palestine never appears in history until after 70 AD when Rome renamed it to Palestine to mock the Jewish people. the earliest text available refers to that region as Canaan. After that it was always called Israel. Carter is no friend of Israel and the article above belongs on some 3rd rate sinking site like DU.

Hagana...still selling out after all these years.

Israel practices a brutal form of apartheid in the territory it occupies

Yep; the same way the porcupine practices a brutally frustrating form of apartheid against the pack of wolves that surrounds it.

I have reported you SJackson. You're clearly a bigot with a comment like that about people of faith.

[lesser_satan]

Leftists who bitch about "stifling debate" are usually the ones who do most of the stifling. I don't recall a right-wing group ever physically assaulting a left-wing speaker on a college campus, but the reverse happens frequently.

LOL, I just put his quote on my FReeper page as proof for future debates.

Would somebody just please bust Mr. Peanut Breath right in his ugly chiclets?

No, I apologize for advocating violence against anyone, no matter how hateful his views.

Just walk up to Jimmah, before his Secret Service detail can react, and shout,

"You loser! Long live Ronald Reagan!!"

Carter is a socialist from top to bottom, side to side and front to back. Our nation has been fighting socialism since WWII.
I was alive during the Carter presidency. I fully remember the sky high interest rates and double digit inflation. He was a loser as a president and he is a traitor to our country.
