Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter is calling for an international conference to convene on alleviating the damage done by the war in Iraq.
Carter told Voice of America that such a conference would provide reassurance to the Iraqi people that the international community cares about them.
He said participants in the conference would include the countries surrounding Iraq, European nations, the United States and others.
Carter in particular said he believes Iran and Syria should be brought into the process, although he said this may not involve direct talks between the two nations and the U.S.
Carter also called for an expedited, phased U.S. withdrawal from Iraq. He said he hopes the recommendations of a bipartisan U.S. panel on policy toward Iraq will be followed.

I don't like Jimmy either, but if he wants to try to negotiate with these people, let him try.

Rumor has it that an Iranian dirt road leading to nowhere has been named after Jimmy Carter in gratitude for his efforts in supporting Ayatollah Khamenei's takeover of Iran.
It appears Jimmy is now shooting for a highway.

Here is the south - Jimmy Carter is reincarnation of Ashley Wilkes.
A woman in a mans body.
Sorry ladies - we see of lot of this down here.

When will somebody tell this guy that he was thrown out in one of the biggest landslides in history and is therefore in no position to offer "advice" to a two term winner ?

Too bad people forget.
Maybe he has an inferiority complex -- the reason he meddles so much now. He is trying to make up for a very poor performance as a president.

Well, it Carter said it, you know it has to be wrong.

There will be conferences, but feelings are not high on the list of problems to be solved.
