u were worst ,   president EVER   (10.19.10)
2. Let me be the first to say it...
J K ,   NYC, USA   (10.19.10)
I've said it before and I'll say it again: "Shut up, Carter!"
3. Right again - Make me proud ,...
split   (10.19.10)
4. Old, senile man. It's time to retire for good
Arthur ,   SF, CA   (10.19.10)
That so called "cage" has a back door to Egypt. Ever cared to look at the map? Forget about open borders with Israel. We've had it with the Arabs of Azza.
5. Oh
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.19.10)
Wow. Maybe this idiot is actually growing a brain. He acknowledges that "Palestinians" living in Gaza are being deprived of human rights. Duh. Tell me something I didn't know.
6. "hamas must be included"? who made carter pope? "must"?
dante ,   uk   (10.19.10)
7. Cage
Lioness ,   Israel   (10.19.10)
At the zoo all the animals live in cages. If Palestinians want to be treated differently then they should not kill innocent people with bombs, rockets or even stones!
8. "Peace" is just another word for the DESTRUCTION of ISRAEL!
David   (10.19.10)
9. The "cage" has an opening to the Egyptian border!
Jason   (10.19.10)
someone tell this senile old twit to look at a map! ohhhhhhhhh but he definitely knows this..............what he really wants is to destroy Israel!
10. Carter
Sol ,   Toronto   (10.19.10)
How to respond to Mr. Carter is difficult. On one hand he is an ex-President of the U.S. and the office of the President needs and should be respected. On the other hand he is a pompous, self righteous, self aggrandizing, misinformed, blind, self promoter who abuses his status as ex-President to further a very personal vendetta. I think the best response is to wish him a long and healthy life, just far away from us.
11. western democratic man is free?
tarzan ,   pardes hanna   (10.19.10)
but everywhere he is in chains, and if you escape the cage to the free world then welcome to the jungle
12. Arab States Cage Palestinians
RayS ,   USA   (10.19.10)
Our anti-semite expresident has it backward.. The doors are open for any Palestinians wishing to leave Israel . They can leave thru Jordan or (when the Egyptians are willing) thru Egypt. BUT The surrounding Arab States don't want them and keep those on their territory in 60 year old camps without giving citizenship..No, not the Israelis imprison the Pals..It is their "friends" the Saudis, Syrians, Jordanians,Lebanese,Kuwaitis,etc.
13. Carter Wrong Again
Dave ,   Boulder, CO USA   (10.19.10)
Carter knows full well that Hamas has never asked to be part peace talks since they a) do not recognize the State of Israel and b) their charter calls for the destruction of the Jewish state. Lastly, if they live in a cage, by who's making do they live in said cage? If Gaza were say Sweden, would a fence be needed between the two people?
14. Human Rights?
Max ,   Washington DC   (10.19.10)
What the one term former President failed to say is that "Hamas is being deprived of its Human Rights to Kill Israeli's or try to destroy Israel. I hope he was a better Peanut Farmer than Elder Statesman.
15. The Worst President Title
Brod ,   USA   (10.19.10)
Carter and Obama have achieved the Worst President title. Both are AntiSemites. Both are acting as nanny to the Islamist-Jihadist world. Both have been corrupted with Arab Islamist-Jihadist money. Carter has received millions of dollars from Saudi Arabia. Obama's 2008 Campaign received millions of dollars from Saudi Arabia (see James Manning Report on this in Youtube). Both have worsened and weakened America's economy. Both have weakened America's national security interests around the world. Carter facilitated in dethroning the Shah of Iran-friend and ally of America, and allowed the fanatical Islamist-Jihadist Ayatollahs to dominate Iran and the region. Obama bowed to the Saudi Chieftain at a meeting in Rome (see Youtube on this), oblivious to the fact that Saudi Islamist-Jihadists attacked America, destroyed the Twin Towers, blasted the Pentagaon Building, destroyed 3 American Jet Liners, and murdered more than 3000 Americans in cold blood on 9/11.
16. JC criticizes Pres Obama )) Go away
Ronald ,   USA   (10.19.10)
17. One must understand that Carter
Paul ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.19.10)
is from the old Christian ideology. You know the one of Inquistions, and the obligation of Christians to punish Jews, because G-d wants Jews to be punished. Therefore in his eyes, Jews have no biblical rights, only rights bestowed upon them by the grace of the god-fearing people. Of which Carter considers himself to be of the elite of Christian legacy.
18. Jimmy
Dave ,   US   (10.19.10)
How much did they pay you again?
19. The silly goat makes Obama look good.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (10.19.10)
And that ain't easy.
20. #1
US_Exceptionalist   (10.19.10)
Carter is living proof that only the good die young. But, he is no longer the worst president ever. That spot is now filled by BHO.
21. #10
US_Exceptionalist   (10.19.10)
I appreciate the Anatevka humor but quite frankly, I can't imagine why anyone would wish him both a long and healthy life.
22. OLD BASTARD
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (10.19.10)
23. Gilad Shalit is in a cage
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (10.19.10)
No one else.
24. If the Jordanians feel that they are in a cage...
The White Shadow   (10.19.10)
...I suggest moving to Jordan as an alternative. Yisrael for the children of Yisrael.
25. Paul #17
Brod ,   USA   (10.19.10)
AntiSemites are NOT Christians. They are Pagans. If Carter knows the Prince of Peace and the Bible, he will love Israel. He doesn't. Fake Christians are Pagans!
26. fatah was just like hamas at one point
pini ,   usa/Israel   (10.19.10)
and thats why he thinks he can say what he says, If hamas wants to be part of peace Mr. Carter you need to make sure they renounce violence like fatahs abbas has. But ultimatley we dont care anymore, we just want quiet and if that means making sure pallys dont come into our country than so be it, if their rulers suck install new ones Survival of the fittest. thats life.
27. #3 If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (10.19.10)
28. Senility bites
Paul ,   I   (10.19.10)
A senile old man looking for some attention, resting on his laurels as a failed president. there is a reason why he never got reelected...
29. Mr Carter touring talking rubbish
Anna M Sedda ,   Italy   (10.19.10)
Palestinians do not live in a cange,they vote Hamas to put them in a cage,that's different...Is there not any Palestinian that can run for mayor of Gaza beside Hamas..Our freedom is in our hands when we vote...If you vote Obama -you get Obama...But Carter..who voted him for going aroung talking rubbish?
30. What is it about CARTER That lovs to Hate Israel so much?
chris ,   wales   (10.19.10)
why does CARTER love the Oppressors so much and why does he love to bash the Israelis? Carter and his ilk spend most of their days Demoniszing the Victims of the Oppressors of this world..the guy is Obnoxious!
