Jimmy Carter has reached a new low in stupidity. Hamas would be that group of Islamofascist terrorists that has vowed to wipe Israel off the map. On what grounds is it "criminal" for Canada to withhold assistance from a group of terrorists hostile not only to Israel's existence but to the West? Coming from the man who writes of Israel as practicing apartheid, this is entirely in keeping with his views about the Jewish State.

Carter is beginning to make Buchanan look like Prime Minster of Israel material. He's been over the edge for a long time, but now he just seems desparate for attention or a serious slap-down.

It's blind intellectual equivalence at work in JC's mind. TO him, any election must be fully honored by the international community, especially by other demcoracies like Canada. Even if terrorists are elected into power, Jimmy thinks the need to respect the will of the voters is more important than punishing terrorists. He does not believe choices have consequences. I believe that voters who elect terrorists are terrorists themselves and a collective punishment like witholding funding is appropriate.

Hamas recently called for Muslims to attack American targets anywhere in the world. So... fund Hamas, fund attacks on Americans. I guess that's what Jimmy Carter wants.

It seems to me the former President is the criminal, making up his own history as he goes and working against the interests of his own country. Thankfully the Harper government in Canada seems to know what the right thing to do is.

Carter could care less if Israel went away tomorrow. The caller to cSPAN last week was totally correct in what she said to him (before being cut off by the moderator).

Jimmah is a old fashioned communist of the Marxist school. No individual or nation owns anything.

Everything is the "Peoples" property.

What would be Jimmy's reaction be if one of his neighbors, with the means to do so, publicly and loudly announced that they were going to wipe the Carters off the face of the Earth?

I'd bet they'd quickly find hundreds of heavily armed federal agents at their doorstep hauling them away to jail.

I'd also bet that Jimmy would not be complaining when his neighbors declined to fund the neighbor intending to wipe him off the face of the Earth.

He's going lower...

Carter: Universities blocked book promo - December 9, 2006

Jimmy Carter said universities with substantial Jewish enrollment have blocked him from discussing his book "Palestine: Peace not Apartheid."

"My most troubling experience has been the rejection of my offers to speak, for free, about the book on university campuses with high Jewish enrollment and to answer questions from students and professors," Carter said in an Op-Ed published Friday in the Los Angeles Times.
