Carter's Big Lie Campaign in High Gear

Carter's tongue has been unleashed by the powers that be in the US electronic media. He is being invited onto talk shows in order to give him the opportunity to smear Israel as "racist" and as an "apartheid" state. Carter --as an anti-Jewish racist-- denies the right of Jews to live in parts of the ancient Jewish homeland, which were recognized in international law as belonging to the Jewish National Home. So the racist Carter is calling Israel "racist." Somehow he is not bothered by the Nazi-like anti-Jewish agitprop coming out of the Arab mass communications media, such as "Jews are the sons of apes and pigs." His recent "book" has been widely criticized for gross errors of fact. But that does not deter him nor does it deter the media from giving him a platform. It is no longer only the "leftist" fringe groups that call Israel "racist." Establishment voices --like Carter-- and Establishment institutions are doing the same. It is interesting how the smear of "apartheid" began on the "Left" and then passed to Establishment tongues. Now, just as Carter's immense funding [donated to the Carter Center in Atlanta] by super-rich Arabs in Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf ought to be researched and brought to public attention, the sources of funding for many of the "Leftist" groups and grouplets ought to be researched. The results might be interesting, even surprising in some cases.

Funding by the Saudi Bin Ladin Group and other Arab Sources for the Carter Center Published in the Carter Center's Annual Report for 2003-2004 [this is a pdf file; see page 33]

Since the Arab-Muslim world has a history of oppressing and exploiting Jews in accord with Muslim law, in a manner similar to apartheid [based on religion and ethnic descent, rather than skin color], and since Saudi Arabia and the Gulf emirates continue to treat non-Muslims in an oppressive, discriminatory way [particularly the millions of foreign workers in those places], it is extremely hypocritical of Carter to accept funds from them in order to smear Israel.

Here is a previous post on this blog about Carter.

The Jewish National Home and the right of Jews to live throughout that area [called the Land of Israel in Jewish tradition; called Palestine in the West] were recognized by the San Remo decision and by the League of Nations endorsement of the Jewish National Home in 1922].
