Well beyond wrong. 

Pretty much a useless comment without explanation.

Pretty much a useless comment without explanation.

Everytime any nation in the world shows aggression Carter becomes hellbent on appeasement, negotiations, and never pushes military action.  The prime example of this is the Israel/Palestine situation.  He continually fails to support the right of Isreal to defend itself.  He slams Israel everytime a military strike against Hamas accidentally kills civilians even though thats exactly what Hamas does to avoid attack.  And yet, everytime Hamas sends a bomber to blow up a bus SPECIFICALLY to kill women and children he remains silent.

The man is a pushover and has always been terrified to use force or support military action.

Not to mention that he undercut the military of THIS country during his entire administration.  During the Carter years the average earnings of even officers in the service were below the poverty level.

Ask our new Sec of Defense what his role was in keeping Iranian hostages locked up to ensure a Reagan win.  That shit is common knowledge.

hahaha, exactly, it's awfully convenient that they were released within days if not hours of Reagans innuaguration.

Wasn't Carter the most ineffectual and useless president ever?  I don't think he ever had a backbone his entire life.  And service members during the Carter years suffered greatly.  Carter give two shits about defense and still does. 

Exactly..worthless president that would have sunk us deeper into economic depression had he been reelected. The Desert One fiasco was his fault because he didn't do enough to get the job done. I could care less how smart he was..worthless appeaser. he's in love with socialism...Chavez and the Palastinians.

WASHINGTON —  Former President Jimmy Carter faced new criticism Friday over his controversial book on Palestinian lands when a former Middle East diplomat accused him of improperly publishing maps that did not belong to him.

The new charge came as Carter attempted to counter charges from a former top aide that the book manipulates facts to distort history.

Ambassador Dennis Ross, a former Mideast envoy and FOX News foreign affairs analyst, claims maps commissioned and published by him were improperly republished in Carter's book.

"I think there should be a correction and an attribution," Ross said. "These were maps that never existed, I created them."

After Ross saw the maps in Carter's book, he told his publisher he wanted a correction.

When asked if the former president ripped him off, Ross replied: “it sure looks that way.”

Carter's book, "Palestine: Peace, Not Apartheid," was released last week.

"A former Carter Center fellow has taken issue with it, and Alan Dershowitz called the book's title 'indecent.' Out in the real world, however, the response has been overwhelmingly positive," Carter wrote in a Los Angeles Times op-ed piece published in Friday's edition.

Sometimes I don't have the energy to debate some of the great topics on here. So much thanks to Bullldog for pointing out more crap about how useless Carter was. He's done more for the private citizens of the US since he left office. 240...is is obvious that the situation in israel must chang in some manner. The setback by their military this summer has emboldened the Palastinians and Hez/Hamas and the rest. I have no idea what a solution might be but since they lost (i guess) in Lebannon then something new has to happen. They have really screwed things up by losing to Hezboallah(sp).

Well beyond wrong. 

Can you tell us where he's wrong when he says "taking about the extremely powerful, dangerous Jewish/Israeli lobby in this country"?

Have you done your homework?  have you witnessed the close relationship, dual citizenships, backdoor deals, heads ups, financial deals, wars, media blackout, etc that the US has hook up israel with?  They own us!

LOL... during the Isr/leb war, they had a girl call in from leb and they put her on the phone and asked her what was happening.  She started listing the homes and civilian buildings destroyed, talked about her lost fmaily members (exactly what they asked for her), and the CNN anchor interrupted "Young lady, you do realize what these leb/hez did to israel, don't you?  Are you unaware of the terror THEY do?" and cut her mic.  I was shocked.

LOL... people are so fucking stupid.  They deserve to be led by devils.  I can think of about five getbig members who would try to DEFEND the prolonged captivity of innocent Americans so that reagan could get credit.  Fucking evil bastards.

Jimmy Carter is a good man but he was a terrible president. I am 45 so I was growing up in 1977-1981 and couldn't afford to gas up my car. Interests rates even on student loans were sky high.

[The Showstoppa]

As others have said, Carter is a good man.  He just has way too simplistic of a view of the world.  I truly think that he believes if you are honest and forthright in dealings with other countries/leaders, they will be the same with you.  And I think we all would agree, that is not the case in many instances.

Wow, just like a liberal you bring up some tear jerking "poor child" story, and ignore the other 99% of what's going on over there.

So we have a lot of Jews in this country, what about that is "dangerous?"  And they happen to be concerned about thier homeland especially since everyone and thier mother hates them and wants to destroy it.  The fact that they lobby just shows how well organized they are.  They've go thier shit together for thier cause, which is to protect thier homeland.  Kudos to them.

"have you witnessed the close relationship, dual citizenships, backdoor deals, heads ups, financial deals, wars, media blackout, etc that the US has hook up israel with?  They own us!"

-This statement is a perfect exapmle of tryiing to undercut another group in this country while ignoring the real and obvious problems and issues.  I guess if you can imagine a conspiracy then you can say whatever you want about them and claim everyone else "doesn't know anything." You have already proven yourself to be a lunatic.  ALL jews ANYWHERE can claim dual citizenship.
