WHAT people would that be?
I don't like THESE TWO PEOPLE. They see themselves, from their own words, in a them versus 'other' conflict with 99% of us. These are neither of them leaders for our country.
I think former President Carter is somewhat wrong.
But once again, Thomas, you thread hi-jack.

Since when is criticizing Netenyahu the same as being anti-semitic? What makes that so? Is then criticizing Obama the same as being anti-american, or anti-white (or black)?
Really?
ROFLMAO. No, Really.
Jimmy Carter did more to advance peace and help the cause of Israel than Ariel Sharon and Benjamin Netenyahu put together, and ACTUAL Israeli heroes, like Golda Mayer and Mosha Dayan knew it, Itzhak Rabin knew it, Menachem Begin knew it. They knew that the hawks would simply be yet another form of despot in a land filled with despots, they opposed the religious orthodoxy in Israel because it was the same sort of intollerent bigottry that the likes of Yassir Arafat represented.
So, unless you are an American-hating traitor (for criticizing Obama) then Carter is doing nothing more than disagreeing that terrorism, totalitarianism and despotism are a long-term solution. Dissent is something we embrace, supposedly, as Americans. Maybe YOU don't get that, maybe you endorse limiting speech through ugly, untrue accusations and intimidation, but that makes YOU un-American, not Carter, and not for criticizing Obama, but for not grasping the differences between criticizing the leadership of a country, and demeaning the country itself.
