Even in Carter’s long history of post-presidential grandstanding, this book sets fresh standards of irresponsibility. Purporting to give a balanced view of the Palestinian–Israeli conflict, Carter effectively shrugs off such highly germane matters as Palestinian terrorism. The hypocrisies are boundless, and include adoring praise of the deeply oppressive, religiously intolerant Saudi regime side by side with condemnations of democratic Israel. In one section, typical of the book’s entire approach, Carter includes a “Historical Chronology,†from Biblical times to 2006, in which he dwells on events surrounding his 1978 Camp David Accords but omits the Holocaust. Kenneth W. Stein, the founder of the Carter Center’s Middle East program, resigned last month to protest the book, describing it in a letter to Fox News as “replete with factual errors, copied materials not cited, superficialities, glaring omissions, and simply invented segments.†As this article goes to press, more protest resignations, this time from the Carter Center’s board of councilors, appear to be in the works.The Holocaust doesn't rate a mention in a chronology of events leading up to the current unrest in the Middle East? I suppose that means Carter didn't bother to mention the SS brigade that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem raised for Hitler, either.

I tell you Bluto, I regularly find myself having to dispel anti-American propaganda and Carter's name always comes up in conversations with Iranians. In other words, it's my belief that Carter's deeds are responsible for a lot (of course not all) of anti-American senstiments in the world.
I tell people NOT to equate America with Jimmy Carter or vice versa.

But please don't take his assertions as truth, he lies with a straight face.

Carter's omission of the Holocaust perhaps he is in line with
the new paradigm which doesn't use it to excuse oppression
which is ongoing.

then it's not much of a paradigm if it requires erasing history to support it. But Leftists have never had a problem lying to achieve their goals. Your lies are blessed by goddess because it's for a "good cause."

Did the dreaded Jabotinsky put wogs in ovens?
The only reason the NAZI party is portrayed in Hollywood as being the epitomy of evil is because they were White, and practiced racial eugenics. Ironically, they were big-time socialists, and promulgated the same agenda the modern left does.
The majority of Holocaust victims were Jews, not Christians, so your attempt at misdirection and Christian bashing wont work.
Using your idol Uncle Joe to disguise your anti-Semitism was especially vile.
America is the greatest world in all of history. Your personal weakness and self loathing cant change that. suicide is always an option. No more pain and humiliation. You could rest, and unlike those who die of old age, you would receive an adoring eulogy and much sympathy. It's O.K. You'll be at peace, and people will care about you in death.
