Khatami and Carter

As a followup to Rusty's previous post, there are some 'behind the scenes' efforts to get former Iranian President Mohammad Khatami hooked up with former President Jimmy Carter.

From Radio Free Europe:

There has been talk that Khatami's U.S. visit could eventually lead to a meeting with former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, whose presidency was marred by the taking of U.S. hostages in Tehran following the Islamic revolution in 1979.

"The Washington Post" reported that Carter has agreed in principle to host Khatami. There has been no official reaction from Khatami, but the "Financial Times" quoted Iranian sources today as saying Khatami would be unlikely to accept such an invitation.

Even so, some people are hopeful. In particular, Professor Houshang Amirahmadi of Rutgers University and the Iranian-American Council believes Khatami's presence is positive and a meeting with Jimmy Carter could be a real icebreaker.
"Before traveling to the U.S., Mr. Khatami should discuss the issue with Iranian leaders, with Ayatollah [Ali] Khamenei, and tell them that after meeting with Mr. Carter he would invite [Carter] to visit Iran," Amirahmadi says.
So, if birds of a feather flock together, I'd guess that Khatami and Carter would make the perfect anti-American pair of flocking caucusers.

1 Just be sure you check your wallet. Carter will give it away with our freedoms. He is a subvert. Sadly, I think he really believes he is doing the right thing.

2 This so-called "Iranian-American Council" is, as far as I can tell, the Shiite Mullah's equivalent of CAIR. In my opinion these bastards are nothing more a Mullah mouthpiece/propaganda machine and are traitors to both countries.

And as for Carter, when is this guy going to stop embarassing himself?

3 Yes, SeeMonk, Carter is sadly one of the worst creations in the Universe, a liberal Christian. They believe groveling and butt-kissing of tyrants to be the highest form of worship, and along with a fuzzy belief in a Being of some sort, they seek happiness through appeasement of evil. A more worthless and dangerous creature does not exist in the West.

4 Carter has been an idiot since before 1979 when he tried to get me killed (I was on the was to Iran as an advisor) or captured. Folks, 444 days is a long time in captivity. Someone needs to put him in a windowless cage for the rest of his miserable life.

6 Watch noe organizations like AIC (Amirahmadi) his new creation NIAC )Titra Parsi) thier counter parts NIPOC in orange county California and IMAN center through (Namazighah) and IABA (Iranian BAR Association) through Babaie and alike all of a sudden start talking dialouge between cultures.
Culture assumes history and something positive Khatami and his gang are not Muslims, they are not Iranians they are nothing more than evil executioners who were handed a country.

Iran and Iranians survived the sord of Islam some 1500 years ago, and again Iran is occupied by Arabs and Iranians held hostage, except the sords has been change with a Russion made machine Gun.

There are no negotiations to be had, when will these politaticions get it, No one can make a deal with the devil and thses Mullah's will and have put one over the devil. The key are the true Iranian people who love the west and its culture and when supported will over turn these good for nothing bastards.

7 I lived through Carter's "presidency" and the damage he did to our country then is still haunting us.
Sadly, he is still doing active damage to us.
Wish he would just go on back to Georgia and raise his peanuts.

8 Maybe Khatami could take Carter HOSTAGE and take his sorry ass back to Iran. Put him in the same cell as the U.S hostages were in. Never let him see daylight for oh, say the next hundred years.

Works for me.

9 Just like when JIMMY CARTER went over to lick castros boots he is going to be licking khatamis boots as he always has done boy what a worthless little fool

10 To say Jimmy Carter is a bad president is like saying the Titanic got a little wet. He is an embarassment to the United States. I find it astonishing that anybody in this country can find a single worthwhile thing to say about a worthless ex-president.

No joke.

Really.
