How did this turkey ever get elected?

It is no wonder the American people returned him to the private sector in 1980.

Whoever coined the term "useful fool" must have had Carter in mind.

Pipe down Peanut Carter! When Carter was prez, interest rates were over 22% and rising by the time he left and the crazy fanatic Ayotollah Khomeini captured our citizens. And if Carter had done his job in the first place in the early 90's, North Korea wouldn't be nuclear capable. For all this bungling, Carter receives the Nobel prize. What wasted effort!

With this incident Carter may have changed New York to one of the red states.

1980 Presidential Election:

Ronald Reagan 489 Electoral Votes. Jimmy Carter 49 Electoral Votes (Georgia, West Virginia, Hawaii, Minnesota, Maryland and Rhode Island).

Would somebody please tell Jimmeh it's over and Reagan won?

Carter said that peace prevailed after the Oslo Accord was signed in 1993, but the peace was extinguished by suicide bombers and house demolitions.

Some 'peace' ...

1993 : (BIN LADEN, IRAQ, SOMALIA) Osama bin Laden had dealings with Iraqi Intelligence as early as 1993 in Somalia. During that period, various militant Islamic groups, to include bin Laden and Iraqi intelligence and military operatives, were in Somalia to organize, train and mobilize radical factions within the Somali populace. - Youssef Bodansky, “Bin Laden; The Man Who Declared War on America,” Prima Publishing, Roseville, CA, 2001, page 323

1993 & and in 1992 : (SOMALIA, ATEF) Mohamed Atef travelled to Somalia on several occasions for the purpose of organizing violence against US and UN troops stationed in Somalia. On each occasion he reported back to bin Laden at his base in the Riyadh district of Khartoum.

1993 : (IRAQ : HUSSEIN DRAINS SWAMPLANDS IN AN EFFORT TO DESTROY THE OPPOSITION) The Iraqi government began draining the swamplands, where the Shiites lived. This made it so they could not grow rice, which was an important source of food.

1993 : (SOUTH AFRICA, AL QAEDA, WMD, NUKES) Bin Laden operatives reportedly also tried to buy enriched uranium in South Africa in 1993

-2001 : (911 HIJACKER ATTA, CZECHOSLAVAKIA TRIPS) Another lead: reports that chief hijacker Mohammed Atta made as many as four trips to Prague in the Czech Republic, dating from 1993 to 2001. So far U.S. intelligence only has hard evidence of one trip in 1999, when Atta was on his way to the United States. Prague is important because it has been alleged, though again not proved, (* My note : Not proved? We have two named Czechoslavakian officials who have adamantly stated he did meet- this is far more proof than the typical US reporter ever had to claim that militia groups were behind the OK City bombing.) that Atta met there with a senior Iraqi intelligence officer. - "9/11 Bombshell: New Evidence Of Iraq-Al Qaeda Ties?," by David Martin, CBS News Oct. 1, 2002 David Martin

1993 : (GORE : CLIPPER CHIP PROJECT FOR BUGGING TELECOMMUNICATIONS) Al Gore once assured the American public that an Orwellian government would not monitor us. Even today, Al Gore will not claim that he planned to enable the government to tap every phone in the United States if it so desired. Al Gore wanted to be Big Brother. Vice President Al Gore spearheaded a project called "Clipper" which was designed to monitor America. Gore's leadership in this scheme to allow the Feds to have easy access to bug American telephones is all too well documented for him to deny. - "Secret Documents: Hubbell Wanted Federal Access to Phones, " by Charles R. Smith, NewsMax , 8/29/02

1993 : (NORTH KOREA OPENLY BREACHES NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION TREATY : CLINTON ATTEMPTS TO BRIBE THEM INTO COMPLIANCE) By 1993, North Korea was openly in breach of the Nonproliferation Treaty and refusing IAEA inspectors access to its nuclear facilities. President Clinton huffed and puffed about not allowing North Korea to develop the bomb, but in the end he couldn't get the inspectors back in. Fearing a showdown with North Korea, the Clinton administration attempted to bribe the North into ending its nuclear weapons program by promising to build Pyongyang two new (supposedly less weapon-friendly) nuclear reactors, provide it with huge amounts of fuel oil in the meantime, and normalize economic and political relations. Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia Stanley Roth explained the logic behind the administration's policy: "Who knows what actions North Korea might take if it were desperate?" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/771974/posts

1993 +/- : (FORMER YUGOSLAVIA : BOSNIA : MUSLIMS REVIVE NAZI HANDZAR DIVISION - IN TRADITION OF WW2 ERA NAZI SS HANSCHAR BRIGADES) "DOCUMENTS!" shouted a man in a beret with an insignia in green Arabic script outside the UN house in the Bosnian mountain town of Fojnica. He was hostile and demanded our presence at the police station. Later the police chief apologised, but made clear that authority had passed to the men with the Koranic texts hanging from their fatigues. Last summer Muslim and Croat leaders in Fojnica asked the WN to declare it a "zone of peace". Since then war has ravaged the town, bringing murder, mayhem and exile to at least half its original population of 12,000. Different, and alien, forces are now in charge -- some of the toughest in the Bosnian Muslim army. These are the men of the Handzar division. "We do everything with the knife, and we always fight on the frontline," a Handzar told one UN officer. Up to 6000-strong, the Handzar division glories in a fascist culture. They see themselves as the heirs of the SS Handzar division, formed by Bosnian Muslims in 1943 to fight for the Nazis. Their spiritual model was Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem who sided with Hitler. According to UN officers, surprisingly few of those in charge of the Handzars in Fojnica seem to speak good Serbo-Croatian. "Many of them are [Muslim] Albanian, whether from Kosovo (the Serb province where Albanians are the majority) or from Albania itself." They are trained and led by veterans from Afghanistan and Pakistan, say UN sources. The strong presence of native Albanians is an ominous sign. It could mean the seeds of war are spreading south via Kosovo and into Albania, thence to the Albanians of Macedonia. Pakistani fundamentalists are known to have had a strong hand in providing arms and a small weapons industry for the Bosnian Muslims. Hardline elements of the Bosnian army, like the Handzar, appear to have the backing of an increasingly extreme leadership in Sarajevo, represented by Mr Ejup Ganic, Foreign Minister, Mr Haris Silajdzic, Prime Minister, and Mr Enver Hadjihasanovic, the new army chief. The Handzars are working closely with other units around Fojnica, preparing for the long assault on Kiseljak to the east and Prozor to the west, a campaign likely to last years. The first political act in this new operation appears to have been the murder of the two monks in the monastery. Last month Brother Nikola Milicevic, 39, and Brother Mato Migic, 56, were surprised by a four-man squad. After an argument, Brother Nikola was shot dead on the spot. His colleague was only wounded, but finished off by a shot in the neck. Mysteriously, the police guard disappeared a few minutes before. The murder squad withdrew after the killings. The Provincial for the Franciscans of Bosnia, Petar Andjelovic, demanded an explanation. He received condolences from President Alija Izetbegovic and a note from the police in Sarajevo that the matter was under investigation. The Provincial is convinced this was a political murder to deepen the division between Croats and Muslims. He also believes it was sanctioned by Sarajevo. "I can say that for the moment all responsibility for this killing falls at the door of the Bosnian army," he told an Italian Catholic magazine last week. "Somebody very powerful must have organised this." The way the Handzars have settled in Fojnica suggests they are playing for a long war. The town is self-sufficient in meat, vegetables and cereals. The terrain is ideal for guerrilla operations. More significant is the nature of the Handzars, and the influences of the Albanians in their command, and the support from Pakistan. These suggest, politically and militarily, the war in Bosnia has spread - under the dozing eyes of the West. - "Albanians and Afghans Fight for Heirs of Bosnias' SS Part," by Robert Fox, Daily Telegraph, December 29, 1993

1993 : (WTC1 ATTACK, YASIN, IRAQ) Abdul Rahman Yasin mixed and made the truck bomb which wrought destruction and killed six in the first New York World Trade Center attack - then coolly boarded a plane for Baghdad, where he still resides. There is strong evidence that Ramzi Yousef, leader of both the 1993 New York bombing and a failed attempt two years later to down 12 American airliners over the Pacific, was an Iraqi intelligence officer. All this was known in the Nineties.

1993 : (VANCOUVER, CANADA, MARZOUK ARRESTED) Essam Hafez Marzouk was arrested at the Vancouver airport in 1993 for carrying a false Saudi passport. After spending nearly a year in jail, he was released and his claim for refugee status was accepted. Canadian and U.S. intelligence agents later discovered that Marzouk was a veteran of the Soviet war in Afghanistan, where had fought alongside bin Laden. A member of the Egyptian wing of al Qaeda, known as Al Jihad, Marzouk also ran a terrorist training camp in Afghanistan.

1993 : (RAHMAN TAKES OVER NY MOSQUE) At the mosque in Brooklyn, NY, Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman won a vote of the mosque members and defeated the successor of the imam Mustafa Shalabi, who had been mysteriously murdered in 1991. Rahman already had control of another mosque in Jersey City, where some of his strongest supporters lived. But he did not limit himself to the East Coast. He also "traveled around the country . . . up and down the West Coast, where he was welcomed at mosques and greatly admired," the former FBI bureau official said.- "FBI Wary of Investigating Extremist Muslim Leaders: Agency May Rethink Hesitancy on Religious Figures," By Walter Pincus, Washington Post Staff Writer, Monday, October 29, 2001; Page A04

1993 : (CLINTON & AFGHANISTAN) When the Clinton administration took over in 1993, Warren Christopher mentioned bringing peace to Afghanistan in his confirmation hearings for Sec. of State, then never made a significant speech about the country again. ...But there were warnings. Peter Tomsen, a longtime State Dept. official who was a special envoy to Afghanistan, and a few others insisted that the US should help rebuild the country to protect it from extremists. By disengaging, the US risked "throwing away the assets we have built up in Afghanistan over the last 10 years, at great expense," he argued in a confidential 1993 memo to top State Department officials. "The U.S. mistake was to ignore Afghanistan," Mr. Tomsen says today. "We walked away." After the Cold War, the US was "weary of Afghanistan," said Robin Raphel, the assistant secretary for South Asian affairs at the State Department from 1993 to 1997. "It was really a struggle to get attention and resources." Yet to a large extent, the US deferred to Pakistan, its ally against the USSR, as Afghanistan's turbulence dragged on, according to other former officials. "The U.S. had what I call a derivative policy toward Afghanistan," said Elie Krakowski, a former special assistant to the secretary of defense, who has written extensively on Afghanistan. "That is, it had no policy on Afghanistan on its own, and whatever Pakistan said, we bought." The US was reluctant to criticize Pakistan as it further aligned itself with the Taliban after Kabul's fall.

1993 : (CLINTON ADMINISTRATION ENERGY DEPT. DROPS SECURITY MEASURES AT WEAPONS LABS IN THE NAME OF POLITICAL-CORRECTNESS) The Clinton administration removed the color-coded security badges that had been used for years at Energy weapons labs claiming they were 'discriminatory'--as if that makes any sense whatsoever. ... in 1993, the Clinton administration put a hold on doing FBI background checks for lab workers and visitors, an action which helped to dramatically increase the number of people going to the labs who would previously have not been allowed to have access. - "THE CLINTON NATIONAL SECURITY SCANDAL AND COVERUP," Senator James Inhofe (R-OK), Senate, June 23, 1999

JANUARY 7, 1993 : (SOUTHERN EGYPT : JAPANESE TOURISTS FIRED ON)

JANUARY 1993 mid-month : (INAUGERATION FUNDING FROM RIADI) The Clinton-Gore inauguration in mid-January 1993 was another opportunity for the Riady's to open their wallets. James Riady and John Huang each gave $100,000 to cover the cost of the inaugural parties. The Riadys brought a number of friends from Indonesia to Washington for the swearing-in ceremony

JANUARY 1993 : (CIA SHOOTER, VIRGINIA, KANSI) Mir Amal Kansi, a Pakistani, murders two CIA employees in a 'random' shooting outside the Langley, VA headquarters and flees the country. He entered the US in 1990 on a visa issued in Karachi, Pakistan and in 1992, Kansi applied for political asylum in the US and was routinely released with a work permit. Records indicate that he had been involved in anti-US demonstrations in Pakistan. He had purchased an AK-47 assault rifle in Virginia.

JANUARY 25, 1993 : (CIA SHOOTER KANSI SHOOTS FIVE PEOPLE< TWO CIA PERSONNEL) Five commuters in a morning rush-hour jam outside the gates of the CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., were shot by a gunman, Mir Amal Kansi, firing an AK-47 automatic rifle. All but one worked for the CIA. Two CIA employees -- Frank Darling, a communications engineer, and Lansing Bennett, a doctor -- died. Kansi's friends and relatives told U.S. officials that he had been mentally unstable since the death of his father, a wealthy tribal chief, in 1989. It is not known if the attack was politically motivated or if it was connected to the bombing of the World Trade Center, which came one month later. The alleged mastermind of that attack, Ramzi Yousef, followed a similar escape route. The feds interviewed his roommate, Zahed Ahmad Mir, who they said told them that Kansi wanted to use that rifle to attack a symbol of the United States. Kansi's trail had went cold by the time the FBI and the CIA tracked his path from his nearby apartment in Reston, Va., to Dulles International Airport-- the White House or the CIA. - "Man Suspected of Killing 2 CIA Agents Is Apprehended, " By TIM WEINER , NYT, June 18, 1997 via Afgha.com

FEBRUARY 26, 1993 : (WTC1 PLOT, SALAMEH, RAHMAN, YOUSEF) Under the influence of Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, Ramzi Ahmed Yousef organizes Mohammed Salameh and three others in plotting and carrying out a bombing at NY's WTC towers that caused mass destruction, six deaths and more than a thousand wounded. The group is comprised of Egyptians and Palestinians. His companion, a Palestinian named Ahmad Ajaj, who arrived on a fake Swedish passport, was arrested and found to have bombmaking videos and manuals in his luggage. Salameh entered the US in 1988 on a Jordanian passport and a visitors visa issued in Amman, Jordan. He applied for legal residence status [presumably asylee status], was turned down, and continued to be in the country on appeal of that decision. Abdel Rahman, an Egyptian religious leader charged with inciting a 1989 riot in Egypt, obtained a visa in Khartoum, Sudan which had no automated lookout system that would have identified him as a security threat. He entered as a tourist and applied for political asylum and received legal residence. An immigration judge ordered him deported in March, 1993, but he was still in the country four months later when he is arrested for terrorist acts.

FEBRUARY 28, 1993 : (BOSNIA-HERCEGOVINIA) The US begins an airdrop of relief supplies aimed at Muslims surrounded by Serbian forces in Bosnia.

MARCH 9, 1993 : (CLINTON, HUANG, RIADY, CHEN, THE PRC & TIANAMEN SQUARE MASSACRE) John Huang writes a memo to James Riady, regarding "Mr. Chen Xitong from China." Huang is attempting to coordinate a trip to Atlanta by Mr. Chen. Huang assures Riady, "I have already stressed the importance of this visitor to all of us." At the time it was written, Chen was a CCP Politiburo member, ranking 8th in the hierarchy. He was also mayor of Beijing, and Beijing was competing with Sydney, Australia, for the right to host the year 2000 Summer Olympic Games. Short of the late paramount leader Deng Xiaoping and ex-Premier Li Peng, it would be hard to find a more notorious and corrupt CCP official than Chen, or one with more blood on his hands from the June 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. Chen signed the martial law decrees justifying the use of tanks and flamethrowers against unarmed civilians. After the streets had been cleared of blood, Chen gave the official verdict on the massacre in a report to the Standing Committee of the National Peoples Congress. He blamed the murder of thousands of innocents on a conspiracy originated by "some political forces in the West", so it would be extremely difficult for Huang to get a U.S. Visa for Chen. The memo would later be discovered by Senate Democratic staff in John Huang's files.

MARCH 20, 1993 : (IRA BOMB SHOPPING MALL ) Irish Republican Army bomb shopping mall in Warrington, England, killing two children and injury fifty six civilians

APRIL 1993 : (KUWAIT : IRAQI ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT ON BUSH) In April of 1993 the 41st president of the United States - George H. W. Bush - traveled to Kuwait, at the invitation of the Emir. While there he and the Emir narrowly escaped death at the hands of an Iraqi led assassination squad. Shortly before Bush's arrival, Kuwaiti authorities seized 16 people, including at least 2 Iraqis believed involved. The assassination weapon was a potent 180-pound bomb that had been loaded into a Toyota SUV. Authorities also found a remote detonator in the automobile. US intelligence determined that the bomb was constructed by the Iraqi Intelligence Service under the orders of Saddam Hussein. None other than president Clinton – no knee jerk supporter of things Bush - stated that "compelling evidence that there was in fact a plot to assassinate former President Bush” and continued on that this “was an attack against our country and against all Americans." At least one of the Iraqis involved confessed to Kuwaiti interrogators that the plotters were directed by Saddam “to kill Bush." - "Good News From The UN!," by William A. Mayer, PipeBombNews , March 12, 2003

AUGUST 20, 1993 : (OSLO ACCORD) On August 20, 1993, Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Perez signed the Oslo Accord with the PLO through its leader Yasser Arafat. Though not under any compelling threat or necessity to do so, Rabin and Perez did this in hopes of bringing a just and lasting peace with the Palestinians. The Accords provided for a five-year period of progressive negotiations to bring about self-rule in the West Bank (Samaria & Judea) and Gaza Strip. The last and most difficult negotiations over Jerusalem were not to be brought up or entered into until the very end. The whole basis upon which the Oslo Accords were entered was the promise of the PLO to not resort to violence as a tool in the conduct of bi-lateral negotiations. The most essential key of the agreement was to negotiate differences and not to use violence. Yitzhak Rabin would never have signed the Accords without this commitment on the PLO's part.- "THEATRE OF THE ABSURD," By Hal Lindsey, Last Days Chronicles, February, Volume 4, Number 2

SEPTEMBER 13, 1993 : (OSLO PEACE ACCORD SIGNED) - "Did Clinton pardon Arab murderer? Farah on Arafat's campaign for the release of Abu Abbas," by Joseph Farah, WorldNetDaily.com , Tuesday, April 22, 2003

SEPTEMBER 14, 1993 : (ISRAEL : GANOR WRITES LETTER TO DR. KREVATZ : FALSE HOPES FOR PEACE WITH ARAFAT) Dr. Kravetz was a publisher who was interested in one of my manuscripts at the time. Half way to the garbage can, I scanned the letter and my eyes caught the sentence “What if Arafat is killed?” That sentence caught my attention. ...The arduous longing for peace blinded me, making me think that the days of the Messiah had arrived and that, no matter what, peace was inevitable. ...Rereading my letter to Dr. Kravetz, written erev Rosh Hashana, on September 14, 1993, it brought me back to the Holocaust, when we closed our eyes to the naked truth. I actually believed that Arafat was our partner for peace and was worried about his safety. I find my following sentence ironic: "What if Arafat is killed? What if the army leaves the territories and Hamas defeats Arafat? These are only a few of the questions that haunt us. Whatever happens we shall never be the same as we were before the signing. Whatever happens peace is now inevitable. Thank God." (* By January 2003 : Ganor would write "My euphoria and desire for peace with the Palestinians was so strong that I actually believed that peace was inevitable. It was just another shattered dream." ) - Shattered Dreams , Solly Ganor, a Holocaust survivor who has lectured throughout Germany. He can be reached at solganor@netvision.net.il.

Those killed were among of 28,000 US troops in Somalia. US news media covered a mob celebrating the killings by dragging the bodies through the streets.
(* My note : In 1996, the US indicted Osama bin Laden for allegedly training the killers. In 1997, bin Laden admitted involvement in interview with CNN. In 2000, court testimony of al Qaeda defector Jamal Ahmed al-Fadl implicated both Osama bin Laden and Mohammed Atef in planning the killings.)

He took photographs and made sketches which he presented to bin Laden while bin Laden was in Suan.

She announced that 32 million pages of classified documents were now subject to review and possible release to "put the United States out in front as a nation willing to share." She joked: "During the Cold War, I would have been arrested for what I said." No wonder Wen Ho Lee thought the rules had changed. They had.

Carter just produced an excellent political ad for the reelection of George W. Bush.

We can skewer Dean and the rest of the rats with Carter's extremist radicalism for months.

Thanks Jimmy! And say hi to Billy.

Pathetic excuse for a man equates suicide bombers and house demolitions.

"No matter what leaders the Palestinians may choose, Israel must choose between peace and settlements."

Hey jimma, great choices you give israel how about giving the murdering palestinians the same type of choice, peace or death.

"Carter said Israel's settlements in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and the security fence are the main obstacles to peace."

Funny, I thought it was the Palestinian bombings and shootings of Israelis. How very silly of me.

The gall of Farter to be grousing about anti-American sentiment in the world. His administration was nearly as hostile to Israel as Bill Clinton's was, and we saw how the world loved us then. The cold war was in full tilt, and America was thoroughly humiliated by Iran while the whole world laughed at us.

"Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, blamed US President George W. Bush for anti-American sentiment and worldwide terror. "Bush's inordinate support for Israel allows the Palestinians to suffer," Carter said. "This is a source of anti-American sentiment in the world and encourages terror."

Its irresponsible talk such as this, from hypocritical bible-thumpering, blowhards such as Carter and x42, that keep anti-American, anti-Israel sentiment brewing.

What an irrelevant, bitter, old lefty he is. The only aspect of his pathetic admistration to surpass his dismal domestic policy.... (gas lines, theomostats set at 68, skyrocketed unemployment numbers, 19% mortgage rates, the malaise factor, Olympic boycott) ..... were his miserable failures in foreign poliicy. He was clueless then and he still is.

Reason #87,093,104 why he lost to Reagan.

I voted for him...in 76. What I say, We're all entitled to one mistake.

Bill Clinton as President was mainly an incopetent sleeze.

Jimmy Carter, on the other hand, almost destroyed the American economy while president - he also pulled a JFK with the Cuban expatriates and informed Castro of all their movements. Carter turned to Fidel Castro and other communist leaders and became the only ex-president TRAITOR the USA has known who is still determined to obliterate the freedoms that the United States of America demonstrates to the world.
