For those who think that Dhimmi Jhimmi Carter is only interfering with affairs of State because he doesn’t like what this administration is doing, you might want to look at his history of interference.

In 1999, he criticized the Clinton Administration for bombing Kosovo.

“I just hate to see us continue to destroy the lives of totally innocent civilians in Serbia in a fruitless effort,” he said on CNN’s “Larry King Live.” He called the air campaign “well-intentioned but counterproductive.”

In a harsh assessment of NATO, Carter said the alliance should have begun preparing for a ground invasion of Kosovo immediately after Operation Allied Force began “to make sure that (Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic) knew we meant business.”

Carter said sending ground troops into Kosovo would be “a better option” than the bombing he blames for hurting the people of Serbia but not Milosevic. He said he became alarmed when the bombing shifted from military targets to roads, bridges, and water supplies.

Then NATO General Wesley Clark had just given authority to hit broader targets in the bombings in Yugoslavia. Carter sent a letter to then President Bill Clinton who ‘respectfully disagreed’ with and did not respond to Carter’s assessment of the situation.

So Carter’s interference and attempts to promote himself as a peace negotiator is nothing new and not aimed at this particular situation alone. It is his pattern.

Another common thread is his preference for American Soldiers to be sent in with boots on the ground and allow themselves to be killed rather than run the risk of collateral damage in enemy territory.
