Looks like LJAd has gone off to his dream world again. Nighty-Nite LJAd, don't let the nasty Muslims bite.
Jimmy Carter was a peacenik, one of my favourite US presidents. Thinking he was the most true and uncorrupt US politician of the last 100 years. He and hitllary are light years apart. ..One tried to be nicer, the other only speaks those words. Lets see how nice she is tonight.
Carter uncorrupt ? HaHaHA,etc.As corrupt as Hillary . Who was giving $millions for the Carter Foundation ?
A great many it would appear. http://www.cartercenter.org/donate/corporate-government-foundation-partners/index.html
As much as I dislike the JImmy Carter as president, I do think strongly that honesty was one of the few high points for him.
Alan Dershowitz (professor at Harvard and very left wing liberal democrat) would disagree with you : he said that the Carter Foundation received $1 million from the Bin Laden family and $10 million from the Zayed Center . Curiously (or not) Carter became very hostile to Israel . Given that the origin of the money of the Zayed Center were Arab potentates for whom human rights were a joke and that Carter was pontificating about violations of human rights (in Israel), it is evident that the picture is very clear :Carter should have the decency to register himself as a foreign lobbyist .
Not that the other Democrats were better : Clinton,Obama ,Kerry :they all received bribe money . One should look at the following article : 5 democrats and their Middle East donors .
the Bin Laden family and several Arab potentates : I don't care about the origin of his money,but at least, he should have the decency to keep silent about human rights . it is always the same : publicly preaching againsy dictators and villainous capitalists, but secretly accepting their money . Listen to what I am saying,but don't look at what I am doing .
Dershowitz is very left wing liberal...On everything, but Israel. You say anything against Israel, and you are on his "hit list". Once Carter criticized Israel, Dershowitz set his sights on Carter. With Dershowitz, Israel can do no wrong, and nothing critical can be said about Israel. Sorry, but Israeli conduct has done more than a few things that can be highly criticized.
Completely ignores the fact that Arab contributions have amounted to an entire...vast...3% of the donations that the Carter Center has received. Three percent. Yeah, Carter really is being bought by those Arabs...Not.
This is completely avoiding the point : Carter,the self declared defender of the human rights (but not in the Muslim World)accepted money from Arab dictators,for services in the past or future services,thus his credibility is zero : Harvard gave the money of Zayed back;Carter not .
Things as killing 3000 people with high-jacked aircraft,murdering 130 people in Paris, 14 in San Bernardino, ...teaching children of 5 year how to behead people,etc,etc
Attacking a US ship and killing US sailors? How about spying on the US, only surpassed by Russia and China. Some years exceeding them when industrial espionage is figured in. How about selling information gathered by their spying to the USSR, during the cold war, in order to get them to allow Russian Jews to immigrate. Information that led directly to the deaths of US intelligence agents working in the Soviet Union. How about selling US military technology, technology we shared with them, to China? How about US troops being fired on during the 2003 invasion of Iraq by weapons systems, using state of the art optics and sensors based on technology we supplied to Israel, they sold to China who then built the systems and sold them to Iran and Iraq? The Chinese stealth fighter was only possible by using technology developed in a joint US/Israel fighter development program, sold to them by Israel. We GIVE patriot missiles to Israel for their protection, they SELL the performance data from these missiles to China so they can develop systems that can operate outside of the systems operational parameters. All highly classified and confidential information and technology. So Takao is correct, Israel has done more than a few things that should be criticized.
As US are spying on their European allies;why should Israel not have the right to spy on the US.?Why should Israel not have the right to sell US military technology? US military technology shared with Israel is no longer the property of the US .Are the US not selling technology to other countries ?
An entire 3% of the Carter Center's total donations... The Carter Center spent those funds, as they do all donations, on humanitarian projects around the globe. Haa-vaad was going to spend their money on a Muslim religious studies center. Apples to Oranges.
Because it is in the contract. Because it is the law. The buyer does not get re-sell rights, and the intellectual property rights are still retained by the seller. But, as always, money talks. Remember Toshiba & Kongsberg(sp?) back in the 80's.
