Former president Jimmy Carter is back at his favorite pastime of bashing Israel. Just a few months ago, Carter issued a public apology stating that he did not mean to offend anyone in his criticisms of Israel and announcing his support for the Jewish state. At that time it was speculated that the letter was designed to help Carter's grandson in a political contest in a heavily Jewish district in Georgia. That election must be over, or else Carter just couldn't contain himself anymore. His latest -- "There's no doubt that in general the United States government has been much more attuned to the sensitivities of the Israelis and has yielded excessively to the circumstances in the Holy Land as Israel has confiscated several lands within Palestine," Carter said at the opening of a two-day conference on US-Arab relations.
What a schmuck! In the last month, the USA has criticized Israel for having the temerity to authorize construction of apartments for Jews in Jerusalem while saying nothing about the rocket attacks from Gaza that killed a worker in Israel. After all, what is more important, setting up Jew-free zones in Jerusalem or the sensibilities of Israelis who are distressed when innocent people are killed by terrorist attacks from Gaza. Clearly, Obama thinks that the apartheid regimen that creates Judenrein areas wins out. So does Carter. Let me say it again: What a schmuck (and I mean both Obama and Carter).
