Weakness, appeasement and surrender are never a good look, but Jimmy Carter and the Carterians have never caught on to this.
“Carter Center calls for Gaza cease-fire, draws comparisons to Jimmy Carter’s 1979 Iranian hostage crisis,” by Ari Hoffman, Post Millennial, November 1, 2023:
On Tuesday, former President Jimmy Carter’s human rights nonprofit organization The Carter Center called for a cease-fire in Israel’s war against Hamas terrorists. Hamas attacked Israel on October 7 and Israel responded by declaring war on the terror group. Hamas is also calling for a cease-fire, which would give the terrorists time to regroup amid the war.
The organization, founded by Carter and former first lady Rosalyn Carter, said in a statement, “This weekend, Israeli forces moved into Gaza and intensified their devastating attacks. Israel, like all nations, has a right to defend itself; it also has the obligation of proportionality under international law. Violence will only beget more violence.”
The statement continued, “We urge all parties to agree to a cease-fire. We ask for the opening of humanitarian corridors into Gaza and the reinstatement of essential services to the area. We urge the immediate, safe return of all hostages, and we call on both sides to abide by international law.”
The organization called “…antisemitism, Islamophobia, and anti-Palestinian sentiments around the world,” a dehumanization “gateway to violence and must be condemned wherever it arises.”
It continued, “Collective punishment is contrary to international law. So is the murder of civilians. The violence must stop now. There is no military solution to this crisis, only a political one that acknowledges the common humanity of both Israelis and Palestinians, respects the human rights of all, and creates a path for both societies to live side by side in peace.”
Reaction came swiftly on social media, with many drawing comparisons between the over 200 hostages, including Americans, taken by Iran-funded Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7 and Carter’s botched response to the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979….
Hoi Polloi says
The same Carter who concerned himself with elections all over the world but told Americans to put up and shut up.

the smartleck idiot said a lot of bad things about Israel. The “center” is just following in his footsteps. And, let’s not forget, carter was afraid of a little bunny rabbit.
A few days ago, to take my mind of off stuff, I watched a cheesy movie titled, “Alien Invasion.” It was about some scientist who captured an alien egg and had it contained. Some young people trespassed and one of the two guys opened the container, letting the alien escape and grow into a terrible…and very ugly…creature who moved like an insect.
The scientist was killed by the creature….the guy who let it loose was aware of this….and the guy who let it loose, began talking soft and kindly to it, calling it something like “nice puppy.”
Too much like some people and mozlums. Spoiler: the alien, and the new arrivals on a space craft, killed all of the people who made up the cast.
Keys says
I like your alien analogy, somehistory. It also reminds me of quotes from the movie, “Independence Day”.
“Peace? No peace.” – The Alien reply through the top scientist’s dead body after the US President says, “I know there is much we can learn from each other, if we can negotiate a truce. We can find a way to co-exist. Can there be a peace between us?”
“Die…die.” The alien reply after the President asks, “What is it you want us to do?”
The President after the alien attacks the Presidents mind:
“I saw… its thoughts. I saw what they’re planning to do. They’re like locusts. They’re moving from planet to planet… their whole civilization. After they’ve consumed every natural resource they move on… and we’re next.”

Iran/Islam is the Mothership that wants Israel and all Jews to die. No peace until all the world is for Allah.
somehistory says
Thank you, Keys.
And thanks for the bit from the movie.
I recall something similar from “Mars Attack.” The Martians pretended to be friendly, until they were ready to take over. Even Tom Jones was fooled, singing to welcome them.
The authorities were taken in until it was too late.
Kind of funny that so many Hollywood people are blind to the Truth of islam. (not as in laughing, funny)

First, Hamas is Islam. Can anyone deny that?
Second, yes they want all Jews to die, but I’m surprised that someone who has been reading this site for years, left out the fact that they want Christians, Hindus, LGBTQs, Atheists as well as any other breathing American or Western nation and peoples – DEAD! So, in other words – We’re ALL NEXT.
Honestly, it’s astounding listening to media and videos both here in the U.S. and UK, and other western nations that have the SAME problem with Islamic terrorism, yet they seem to separate themselves from it because they’re calling death to Israel and Jews, but not their country or religion yet! This appears to be a test to see how much sh-t they can get away with when they attack the rest of us. They’ve been planning to attack us and have been emboldened so it wasn’t far off.
somehistory says
No one who comes here often, or for any length of time, is denying that mozlums want all *infidels* dead if we reuse to be threatened into bowing to their devil god.
We don’t all make every comment that shows that fact. But, we know it.
We all have targets on our backs. The proof is in the fact that Christians in Africa and mozlum majority places are being murdered by mozlums. Hindus and Christians in India.
In mozlum nations, those who are homosexual are thrown off roofs or hanged.
No one is denying that.

Kind of OT

“Obama has ‘always’ had ‘a deep hatred of Israel in his heart’: Alan Dershowitz”
Expressing outrage over former President Barack Obama’s call for an end to Israeli “occupation,” Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz expanded on why he’s never talking to the Democratic president again.
“I think he always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart. He hid it very well. He called me to the Oval Office and he said to me, ‘Alan, you’ve known me for a long time. You know I have Israel’s back.’ I didn’t realize he meant to paint a target on it,” Dershowitz said on “Mornings with Maria” Friday.”
“He’s never been supportive of Israel. And finally, his true feelings have come out now that he’s no longer president and doesn’t have to be elected,” the professor continued. “He has contributed enormously to the problem because he is respected among young people. And if he says the occupation is unbearable and that anything can be done to stop it, he is encouraging people to engage in their antisemitic, anti-Israel and anti-American attitudes. He should be ashamed of himself. He should apologize, but he won’t.”
Dershowitz’s commentary comes after he claimed Thursday that any relationship with Obama is “over” following the 44th president’s on-stage statements about the Israel-Hamas war.”

James Lincoln says
somehistory,
For the life of me, I cannot understand why a brilliant and very decent man like Alan Dershowitz still remains a Democrat.
somehistory says
James, it’s like that thing about a mystery, inside a conundrum, a riddle, hiding within an egnima….or something like that.
James Lincoln says
Sounds about right, somehistory.

Tanya Notkoff says
Jimmy Carter has always hated Israel and the Jewish people and frankly, he’s guilty of what amounts to Jewish Blood Libel, since he maintains the lie that Israel is imposing “Apartheid”–this is an evil lie. Of course, Carter and his center are well endowed by the Arab nation, so is it any wonder where his loyalties lie. Perhaps, he won’t die because he knows he’s going to Hell! Yeah, I said it–I share a birthday with Anne, so I’ve just gotta be frank!
tgusa says
James Earl (death to America) Carter Jr. They just never go away no matter how badly they screw things up. I would think they would have the decency to crawl under a rock somewhere and be out of our lives forever. But, no.
James Lincoln says
tgusa,
Just like all of the Leftist celebrities that vowed to leave the United States if Trump became President.
I know of none that actually left.
tgusa says
None left. Ain’t it a shame James?
tgusa says
They stayed here. Went on strike. Want higher pay for crap no one wants to watch. Might as well have left.

There is still a Carter Center?

He means that israel stops shooting. Too cowardly to tell the moslems.

Ray Jarman says
The world must remember that had not Carter pulled the Shah from the seat of power in Tehran, the Middle East would not have evolved as it has to this day. Had the Shah remained on the throne, Sadam would not have attempted to take what he considered Iraq from Iran. This cost Sadam a tremendous amount of money and embarrassment when he failed. In an attempt to regain some of his lost revenue, he attacked Kuwait and the Americans became involved. One could say that 9/11 would probably not have happened nor would the so-called Arab Spring and so forth. With no Mullahs in Tehran organizations such as Hamas and Hasbullah would not exist and Lebanon would be without Iranian domination. Thousands of people would still be alive. I could go on but I blame Carter and his idiot, Brzezinski for most of the tragedies of the Middle East.
somehistory says
Ray, the arrogant idiot carter, pushed over a domino because he believed, erroneously, that he knew best.
Ray Jarman says
Somehistory, Thanks and I bet that history will prove he was only an idiot that led to complete failure and should have remained a simple peanut farmer.
Elizabeth Honaker says
Dear Heavenly Father! Protect us from “peaceniks” like Jimmy Carter! I lived in England during the Iranian debacle, and spent a terrible 444 days agonizing over Carter’s absolutely CRAZY reaction to Iranian terrorism! His insistence that “peace was the only way” only made his fellow citizens’ ordeal worse and more terrifying! His so-called “faith” approach was an absolute embarrassment — something the Iranians have capitalized for all these years.
somehistory says
Evidently, elon musk is of like mind. He wants Israel to be nice to hamas.
