Blue Star Chronicles

Would someone PLEASE tell Jimmy Carter that he’s not the President anymore??? What is wrong with him? I’m embarrassed for him and I’m not even kin to him.

I originally posted the cartoon above in January 2006, so this isn’t new behavior on this man’s part!!!!

The Washington Post

Former president Jimmy Carter plans to meet next week in Damascus with Khaled Meshal, the head of the Palestinian militant group Hamas, in a direct rebuke of the Bush administration’s campaign to isolate it.

The disclosure of Carter’s plans by the Arabic-language newspaper al-Hayat and subsequent confirmation by sources familiar with his itinerary instantly placed the campaigns of Sens. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) in a political bind.

The campaign of Sen. John McCain (Ariz.), the presumptive Republican nominee, was quick to blast Carter’s plans and called on both Obama and Clinton to condemn the meeting with what the State Department lists as a terrorist group.

Both Clinton and Obama issued statements with milder language, saying they “disagreed” or did “not agree” with Carter’s plans.

Hamas is a terrorist organization that regularly bombs Israel and is an enemy of the United States. They receive assistance from Iran and Syria who have declared they are committed to the destruction of the United States and Israel and who are supplying weapons that are KILLING and maiming American Soldiers in Iraq.

A former President of the United States carries a certain amount of official clout. This meeting by this SILLY man will be used as a propaganda tool for the enemies of the United States and Israel. Former President Jimmah Carter is bringing shame on himself and on the United States though his misguided attempt to salvage some sort of legacy for himself. And I do believe this is all about HIM for him.

Its not wonder that his wife looks so angry all the time.

I can’t think of an example of a former President behaving so badly. T.R.E.A.S.O.N.

BTM with Right Pundits calls him a ‘dangerous coot’. HA!

President Carter is a disgrace to this country. It has gotten beyond the point where he is the crazy old former president who likes to build houses. The guy is now a plain embarrassment and frankly dangerous coot now.

Allahpundit thinks this is just too good to be true … for the election.

The left’s senior statesman, sitting down for a photo op with this degenerate in the heat of an election? After having only just recently quasi-endorsed a guy who, thanks to his associates, is already suspect on Israel? It’s too good to be true. Memo to JC: As an icebreaker, ask him how many Jews really died in the Holocaust.

Something … and Half of Something says this is a real opportunity for Hamas:

This is an outstanding opportunity for Hamas! Is it too much to hope for, that Al-Hayat will realize what a wonderful hostage Jimmy Carter would make? I sure would like to see a video of his sorry ass sitting in front of bunch of jihadis with a flag, some AKs and at least one kitchen knife. Yep, I’d call that a win-win situation, just think! Carter could give his all for his principles and beliefs, and we would be spared having to listen to the happy horseshit that pours out of his mouth every time he opens it. I’d call it poetic justice, and it would surely be a very fitting end to a very stupid man.

Beth at My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy is outraged.

If there were ever any doubt as to where Carter stands on terrorism vs. Israel–and for that matter, the West in general, including us–this ought to settle it. Hamas? I shouldn’t be surprised, but HAMAS? A former President of the United States is going to legitmize this?

ShrinkWrapped says its an unconscious hate.

Jimmy Carter is the Godfather of the modern leftist hater. He presents a pious mien, untroubled by rage or hate. He truly sees himself as a man of peace. Yet Hamas is openly and unapologetically genocidal. Jimmy Carter hates through others maintaining deniability of his own monstrous impulses. His evil is worse than the banality Hannah Arendt described because he should know better. The compartmentalization required to embrace the murderers of innocents while proclaiming their moderation is breath taking yet never seems to give pause to our ex-President. Jimmy Carter is a hate filled and bitter man and every effort he makes seem to support monsters. It is a mystery only to him.

Hyscience says Jimmy Carter is a friend to our enemies.

Slobokan’s Site O’ Schtuff has a pictorial reminder of who it is that Jimmy Carter is meeting with.

This time, it’s worse than overseeing the election in Venezuela for Hugo Chavez. It’s worse than rubbing elbows with Fidel Castro. It’s worse than inviting Robert Mugabe to the White House. This time he is meeting with the exiled head of a terrorist organization.

Pat Condell discusses the film Fitna, the islamic reaction to it, the threats of violence and the dhimmitude of the west under the treat of islamic violence.

More great posts trackbacked below …

There’s just a big brouhaha going on because of the Geert Wilders film, Fitna. Obviously, a lot of people saw that coming and many people and groups tried to stop it from being released from the get-go.

I watched the film and saw acts of terrorism committed by islamic jihadists against the West and Western interest. The film didn’t exaggerate the atrocities and in fact barely scratched the surface of the outrageous behavior of the jihadists. So what’s the problem? The problem apparently is that we are not supposed to acknowledge that jihadists are jihadists. I guess we are supposed to pretend the are a loving group of people who are just badly misunderstood.

Or …. as a few commenters on my previous post have pointed out … we should all just admit that America is the big bad bully in the world and its all our fault for everything the Jihadists do around the world to anyone who does not submit to their will.

I don’t think I’ll do that, thank you very much. The jihadists have made no secret of their goal of destroying us and to pretend that is not true is akin to Chamberlain declaring that Hitler wasn’t so bad after all and there’d be peace in his time. He was wrong and the people who excuse the behavior of these evil doers are just as wrong and are part of the problem.

Its hard to blame the commenters and the ‘moderate muslims’ who refuse to condemn this behavior or who even defend the behavior. After all, look what happens to any muslims who DO speak out against jihadists in the name of islam … if they aren’t murdered they have to go into hiding. Just ask Ayaan Hirsi Ali what happens to muslims who speak out.

The jihadists are pulling out all the stops to intimidat the West into suppressing any information being distributed to the people that reminds them of the atrocities committed in the name of islam.

Its hard for me to believe how badly we are being played. On the one had they openly tell us they will destroy us and make no secret that they are developing the technology and weapons that can and will do just that. The examples of this are almost endless. And still we pretend that they are not a threat and would rather blame ourselves than name the enemy what he really is.

When did we become such cowards????? It is certainly not our heritage to be cowardly, yet we seem to have lost our will to protect our own interests. We tsk-tsk about beheadings, but then are outraged when someone reminds us that the ones doing the beheadings are islamic. Some even feel sorry for them when they are killed by our Troops!

Here’s a little bit of what’s going on now …..

I already posted that the courageous European Union has condemned the movie. They even went so far as to state the the whole concept of free speech is probably over-rated. Oh yeah? Tell our Founding Fathers that and every man who has died in every war defending our freedoms. COWARDS!

Muslim nations condemn Dutch Koran film

Geert Wilders, leader of the anti-immigration Freedom Party, launched his short video on the Internet on Thursday evening, prompting an al Qaeda-linked website to call for his death and increased attacks on Dutch soldiers in Afghanistan.

“The correct Sharia (Islamic law) response is to cut (off) his head and let him follow his predecessor, van Gogh, to hell,” a member of Al-Ekhlaas wrote on the al-Qaeda affiliated forum, according to the SITE Institute, a U.S.-based terrorism monitoring service.

The 57-nation Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) said: “The film is solely intended to incite and provoke unrest and intolerance among people of different religious beliefs and to jeopardize world peace and stability.” [If they didn't blow up people, fly planes into buildings, behead people and kill anyone who disagrees with them they wouldn't be subjected to films about what they do. They are who jeopardize world peace and stability, not a film about what they do.]

Of course the UN had to weight in ….

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned the film as “offensively anti-Islamic” and U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour said it was “hateful.”

Its not surprise that Iran disapproves …

Iran called the film heinous, blasphemous and anti-Islamic, and Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation and a former Dutch colony, said it was an “insult to Islam, hidden under the cover of freedom of expression.”

Network Solutions suspended the website that Geert Wilders had reserved to publish his film.

An American network provider Sunday said it had suspended a website that Dutch MP Geert Wilders had reserved to post his anti-Islamic film, which has sparked wide condemnation and fears of a backlash.

LiveLeak removed the video because of threats to their staff. Their statement is here. Gates of Vienna has a list of sites on which you can still see the video. You can view it at Jawa, LGF, Pat Dollard, Atlas Shrugs and Menorah Blog.

Dutch Leftists Apologize to Islam. They have their problems there too.

Following the release of Geert Wilders’ film Fitna, the European Union is quick to reassure the Islamic world that the whole idea of “free speech” is probably overrated: EU condemns Dutch anti-Islam film……….>>

The Spanish Pundit posted this video of a Russian television newscast (in English) of the soon to be released film by Geert Wilders of the Netherlands. The controversy surrounding the release of Wilders’ film is being presented as splitting the Dutch population between those who support his actions and those who feel it is representing their culture as being intolerant and creating problems with muslims. Some of those interviewed make statements such as ‘freedom of speech is a good thing but only when used responsibly’ and that there’s no point in antagonizing the muslims and making their entire society pay for the opinions of one man.

The general message of the film is that the islamification of Europe has already gone too far and there has to be a line drawn in the sand. The detractors seem to prefer to keep their heads in the sand and pretend there isn’t a problem as long as they don’t say or do anything that tips off more bloody protests by the islamofascists. There are also the usual accusations of racism and intolerance.

The entire idea of avoiding facing the realities of the islamic situation makes me think what happens when we avoid conflict …. we create unavoidable conflict. In order to continue to pretend that the islamists don’t really mean what they say they mean (that they want to destroy us) then we avoid acknowledging there’s a problem. Unfortunately, there is a problem whether we acknowledge it or not. When we can’t say anything negative about the Koran without fear of out of proportion retaliation and yet the Bible is considered fair game because no one expects protestants to start burning, looting and killing if someone defames the Bible or Jesus Christ. But muslims will. So fear drives the unwillingness to face the conflict that is already there.

Just ask Theo Van Gogh … oh, you can’t, they killed him … then ask Ayaan Hirsi Ali how much freedom of speech they are allowed by the muslims in the Netherlands. A tolerant society is only tolerant when the tolerance goes both ways.

You may remember the big uproar created last fall when Columbia University invited Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak there. The university apparently takes some pride in their willingness to embrace psychotic dictators and enemies of our country. Columbia University President Lee Bollinger attempted to redeem himself a little bit by giving Ahmadinejad a bit of a hard time during his introduction, but it was really too little too late. Ahmadinejad was able to use the situation to his benefit in the propaganda he put out upon his return to Iran.

All of that happened last fall and everyone has moved on. Except the liberal professors at Columbia who are still stinging from the incident. Ahmadinejad got what he wanted from the incident and went home quite satisfied. He’s still carrying on about how he’s going to destroy the US and Israel and even sends his little speed boats to try to evoke an incident with US Warships. But these professors are projecting their own feelings on Ahmadinnerjacket and think they have to go apologize to him on behalf of Columbia University and the United States.

From Dhimmi Watch

NEW YORK (MNA) – An academic delegation of Columbia University professors and deans of faculties plans to visit Tehran to officially apologize to Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad.

The delegation plans to express regret for the insulting remarks Columbia University President Lee Bollinger directed at Ahmadinejad on September 24 in his introductory speech, the Mehr News Agency correspondent in New York reported.

Since the incident, the deans and professors from the faculties of history, anthropology, Middle Eastern studies, philosophy, and Islamic studies have criticized Bollinger’s behavior toward Ahmadinejad.

A member of the delegation, who requested anonymity, said the main goal of the visit is to meet the Iranian president and officially apologize to him.

These guys are pathetic. Don’t you just know that Ahmadinejad is loving every minute of this.

We are continuing to appease ourselves into sharia law. Jane, at Armies of Liberation, tells me its called a ‘Civil Jihad’. Its a quiet, almost imperceptible surrender to an enemy most in our country believes doesn’t exist. The Jihadis are here and working their way into our culture while our Soldiers are gone and our denial is in full force.

Empire State Building goes green for Eid

For the first time in its history, the Empire State Building in New York was lit in green in celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr.

It will be green till Sunday.

So far, the landmark tower has been lit in traditional colours every year only on the occasion of Christmas and the Jewish festival Hannukah. From this year on, lighting on Eid too will become an annual event.

At the end of Ramadan, Muslims throughout the world celebrate for three days to mark the end of Ramadan. In Islam, the colour green symbolizes a happy occasion.

Soaring 1,454 feet above Midtown Manhattan, the Empire State Building was recently named America’s most favourite building in the poll conducted by American Institute of Architects.

I guess if the World Trader Center towers were still standing they might be green in celebration of the muslim holiday. Unfortunately, they aren’t and the Empire State Building is left as the tallest building in New York.

Civil Jihad and Sharia By The Inch.

Islamofascism: In a monumental nod to political correctness, the Empire State Building is to be lit up green in honor of the Muslim holiday Eid. The separation of Islam from terror is officially complete.Six years ago, Islamic terrorists screamed “Allah is Greatest!” as they slammed fuel-laden jumbo jets into two other New York skyscrapers. Six years ago, New Yorkers were worried about the Green Menace.

Now, for the first time, New York’s remaining famous skyscraper will be aglow in green — the color of Islam — to mark the end of Ramadan, a month of intense Islamic renewal. Officials say it’ll be an annual event, in the same tradition of the yearly skyscraper lighting for Christmas and Hanukkah.

What’s next, Ground Zero festooned with crescent moons and stars?

Political correctness is running amok. Last week, the White House held a Ramadan dinner for Muslim leaders and activists, even though we are still waiting for them to condemn Islamic terror groups by name.

To their delight, President Bush praised, and even suggested we all worship Allah. “I believe that all the world, whether they be Muslim, Christian or any other religion, prays to the same God,” he said, adding “I believe that Islam is a great religion that preaches peace.”

This President has proven himself to be a huge disappointment in his inability or unwillingness to remain steadfast in his fight against Islamofascism. While we are going about our daily lives as though there isn’t a war, we are ever so quickly slipping into submission.

Worse, we have Soldiers in another country fighting a war, while we give away the homeland.

Pajamas Media:

Nothing yet on Buddhists or Hindus. Or whether Jewish and Christian holidays will be celebrated by similar illuminations in Dubai.

Little Green Footballs:

I don’t know how many people complained about it, but it must have been a significant number.

The managers of the Empire State Building were determined to make their appeasement gesture anyway.

The Winds of Jihad calls it Voluntary Dhimitude

Doctor Bulldog guesses New Yorkers have forgotten that the muslims already had a lighting ceremony in New York - back in 2001.

Velvet Hammer has a Dhimmitude Sharia round-up.

Woman Honor Thyself explains the history of Ramadan and has this to say:

They can make it neon green for all I care..There is only one color New Yorkers and Americans who don’t want Sha-riah will see: …Red.

The Gateway Pundit:

Muslim extremists destroyed the last two tallest towers in New York.
Maybe the owner of the next tallest building thinks this will keep his tower safe?

There is outrage in London over the plans to dig up the ancient graves at Tower Hamlets Cemetery so that is can be reopened as a ‘multi-faith’ 21st century burial place.

Officially it would be known as a ‘multi-faith’ cemetery but it is likely that it would principally answer calls for a Muslim graveyard in the largely-Asian East London borough.

The local newspaper has been bombarded with letters from historians and nature lovers declaring: “There is no way we’ll allow them to dig up our ancestors.”

But the Labour-controlled council’s environment spokesman Abdal Ullah appeared to be in no doubt about the feasibility of the plan when he said: “To preserve the respect and dignity for everyone, I think most of the graves would have to be cleared out and we’d start afresh.”

He said a corner of the cemetery would be reserved for Muslims who are buried in shrouds at a depth of 6ft and on their side facing Mecca.

Remember the ‘inter-faith’ hospital gowns in London named that as a euphemism for muslim. This has the same kind of ring to it.

I have done genealogical research and know the value of tombstones in preserving history. Not to mention the other historical and ecological value of this cemetery.

The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery was opened in 1841 by an Act of Parliament.

During the Second World War it was bombed five times and some headstones still bear the marks of shrapnel hits.

Other markers have gone altogether, torn down when the graveyard was deconsecrated as a Church of England cemetery by another Act of Parliament in 1966 when it was deemed to be full.

The intention was to create an open space for the public, which led to two bomb-damaged chapels being demolished and a swathe of graves cleared.

In 1986 ownership passed from the Greater London Council to Tower Hamlets and in 1990 the Friends of the Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park was set up.

Seven years ago the park became the borough’s first nature reserve and it is now tended by 1,600 volunteers.

It is home to 27 species of butterfly, a rare bumble bee, woodpeckers, sparrowhawks and the elusive firecrest.

Some 8,000 schoolchildren visit every year for outdoor nature lessons.

Professor David Bellamy, who is patron of the Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, said: “Tower Hamlets Cemetery is still a place of peace and reflection as it has been since it was saved from becoming just another part of East London’s urban sprawl.

“Now in its new guise as a local nature reserve and green lung, people of every colour, creed and kind share their humanity with that of other living things.

“I can only pray that the wisdom of all faiths can together discover the right way ahead for this very special part of East London’s heritage.”

All faiths could come together to find a way ahead for this if one faith wasn’t completely dismissive of the others. We’ve ceded the middle east to islam, must we also allow the take over of Europe? The West capitulates without even a squabble.

Let the remains of our ancestors rest in peace.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared there are no homosexuals in Iran when he was invited to speak to the effete elite at Columbia University.

He had them at ‘I hate America and there was no holocaust!’ but lost them at the ‘We don’t have homosexuals’.

Now they are falling all over themselves to explain what the meaning of ‘is’ is …. I mean what he really meant by saying there are no homosexuals in Iran. It turns out that its academically respectable! HEH!

I wonder how the trolls at Sadly, Simpleminded! feel about ‘academically respectable’. They didn’t like Dan Rather’s ‘fake but accurate’ at all. Well, they liked Dan Rather’s ‘fake but accurate’ but didn’t like a conservative depicting anything as ‘fake but accurate‘. Its all about what the meaning of ‘is’ is. See?

To understand the logic you have to twist things around every which away and then twist it back and over the top and then you might have some clue as to how their minds work. But probably not.

The thing is, it puts them in a bind when they have to hate someone who hates America and Israel. It just goes against what they believe in so they have to come up with some sort of justification for his words and actions to keep their own ideologies in tact. How can they hate Mahmoud for hating homosexuals when he hates America and Jews so much! He’s like …. well …. he’s like a mini-little-hairy-hitler!

Self-loathing is a sad sight to see, really it is.

Well, at least the comics at Saturday Night Live found humor in the whole thing. They did up a right nice video spoofing Mahmoud as having found love - of the homosexual variety - while he was in New York.

See the video here. Its HILARIOUS!!

As everyone surely knows by now, Columbia University is giving legitimacy to Iranian President Maumoud Ahmadinejad. Hopefully, you also know that Ahmadinejad is a self-avowed enemy of the United States. So Columbia University is welcoming an enemy of our own country to come and speak to their faculty, staff and students.

Aren’t they just oh so open minded.

Well, if they are so supportive of hate-speech, I suggest the Grand Master of the Klu Klux Klan for their next big event. Too bad Hitler is dead, they could have him over for a nice tete-a-tete to discuss the pros and cons of ‘the final solution’. That would be just fascinating!

I can see them all sitting there with their hands clasped, with bated breath and hanging on his every word. They won’t understand a word, but they’ll never admit that. They will appear to be a captive audience. All for the sake of patting themselves on their collective backs at what good members of the effete elite they are.

Iranians are killing our Soldiers in Iraq. Our Soldiers have been fighting Iranians there for years. Iran is providing increasingly advanced weapons to use against our Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Ahmadinejad had made no secret of his commitment to destroying us and Israel. He calls us the ‘big satan’ and Israel the ‘little satan’. In fact, he has stated he will destroy any Western civilization that doesn’t bow down to allah. He supports Hezbullah in their on-going battle against the government of Lebanon and the murder of Israelis. He support Hamas and any other muslim organization that is committed to creating and perpetuating chaos and destruction against the Western world.

He is an enemy of our country. He is an enemy of our way of life. He is an enemy of Western civilization.

The powers that be at Columbia think they are in control of this event with Ahmadinijad. They aren’t. He’s in control. He drags professors out of universities in Iran and has them hung. He has declared he will rid the world of their kind. He’s been doing just that in Iran. The useful idiots of Columbia think this is an exercise in intellectual debate. What is really is, is Ahmadinijad using them to show the world that he can walk right into an American institution and defy the United States of America. It will give him a lot of cache in his world. It feeds his megalomania. It undermines our image of strength in the world.

It leads us closer to a conflict we won’t be able to avoid.

To give succor to an enemy of one’s own country is the definition of sedition. This is certainly giving succor to our enemy. It is very close to giving aid and comfort to our enemy, which is the definition of treason. Those at Columbia who are embracing Ahmadinejad and his hate-speech don’t care about that. They think its cool to commit sedition and/or treason because there are no personal consequences for doing so against the United States. They don’t see beyond their own arrogance and that naughty feeling of being rebellious against authority. It makes them feel all tingly inside. They don’t see the bigger picture, that its not about them. There is a lot more at stake than their holding court over students who are stuck listening to them so they can get their degrees.

Columbia University should not get another dime of federal funding. Period. I personally do not want a penny of the income tax I pay to go towards this sort of courting the enemy. Any Jewish alumni should withdraw any and all financial support from the university. For that matter, any American should withdraw financial support from Columbia. It is obviously an institution that does not support the country that supports it.

What others are writing:

Here’s one of the best ideas I’ve heard about how to deal with Ahmadinejad.

Columbia University students are organizing.

American Congress for Truth has an online petition to stop Ahmadinejad’s speech here.

The National Press Club is hosting Ahmadinejad. What is WRONG with these people??!!??!!

STACLU advocated some Cowboy Diplomacy. YEEHAWW
