The inveterate anti-Semite cackled with delight at the thought of Holocaust redux.

Neo, thanks for the clarification. Your paragraph two says the rest of what I was thinking but was unable to articulate well enough to include it in my comment.

Carter is a deeply flawed human being and one demonstrably incapable of self-examination. He’s in for quite a shock, when he meets St. Peter at the gate.

Someone says to Carter: “You’re going to die on a Jewish holiday.” Carter asks: Which one? Answer: Doesn’t matter: whatever day you die on will be a Jewish holiday.

At least the Jews in Israel can defend themselves, and not rely a Gendarme on a bicycle without a gun to show up.

Sarah Rolph:

At the moment, I think he is correct that Jews are safer in France than in Israel, or at least not too incorrect. I’ve never seen any statistics, but I don’t think he’s far off—that is, in terms of the chance of attacks that lead to death. In terms of atmosphere and a general feeling that Jews get in the country itself, there is no comparison: of course Jews feel more at home in Israel.

However, my point is that Carter himself has worked hard to make the Jews of Israel unsafe. He wrote an entire book of propaganda accusing them of all sort of heinous acts, based on falsehoods. And he has been strongly against the security fence that has afforded the Jews of Israel a modicum of safety. If the Jews are safer in Israel than in France, it’s in spite of Jimmy Carter’s efforts.

Israel refuses to exterminate the Palestinians, preferring live for whatever political reasons. That’s been the case for some time now. That, by itself, leads to American well wishers like Carter and Hussein Obola to sabotage matters. It ends up that Jews in Israel get bombed and rocketed all the time, so some of them moved to France because of that. And now they’re moving back.

Whether they are right or now, really depends on if they survive this century.

I disagree with Neo that the laughter is the only issue here. I don’t think his point is fine.

It’s an insult to Israel to say that Jews are safer in France. For goodness sake, the entire point of Israel is to have a haven where Jews are safe. Carter’s implication is that Israel is useless in that regard. That’s certainly not true.

Carter got visibly depressed or sad or emotional on one interview when a caller came in and started attacking Carter as a Jewish hating something or other.

It’s hilarious how Carter’s face changed, like his feelings were hurt or something. Those killer rabbits must have really hurt him, and he was told it came from the Jews, probably.
