ACLJ: Every year, the United States government gives money to charities that do work around the world giving aid to those who need it most. Unfortunately, however, one of the pitfalls of this kind of generosity is that sometimes the money can end up in unexpected places, and if it falls into the wrong hands can be used for causes that otherwise go against our nation’s interests.
Investigations from other groups and sources have exposed a very troubling set of circumstances: over the last several years the Carter Center—President Jimmy Carter’s non-profit in Atlanta—may have been diverting some of its funds to provide “material support or resources” to Palestinian terrorist groups like Hamas. In doing so, the Carter Center has not only gone against American interests, but has also very possibly violated federal laws that criminalize the provision of “material support or resources” to such organizations.
18 U. S. C. §2339B makes it a federal crime to “knowingly provid[e] material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization.” The Supreme Court has recently made clear that this goes far beyond providing cash with the intent of directly funding terrorist activities. It criminalizes nearly any support or resources given to a terrorist organization for any purpose, including “‘training’ and ‘expert advice or assistance’” for purportedly humanitarian reasons.
On the outside, the Carter Center has pushed for reconciliation between Israel and the Palestinian people, with the proposed outcome of a two-state solution. However, as recent history and other evidence has shown, the Carter Center – including through its office In Ramallah – consistently exhibits preferential treatment towards Palestinian organizations and groups, to the point of detriment toward the State of Israel. Perceived anti-Israel statements on the part of President Carter have even led many of his long-time advisors to stop their work with him and publicly denounce his actions. read more
SNIP: By the way;
Former President Jimmy Carter said that he believes President Donald Trump “reacted quite well” to an invitation to talks with North Korea. Carter also said that if his help is needed, he’ll be there.- CNBC
Gee, that sounds like a swell idea.
WHY IS IT THAT THE WORST PRESIDENTS NEVER STFU AND GO AWAY??
Agreed. He needs to stop breathing.
Carter has always been viciously antisemitic although he’s still playing that phony “nice guy” act.
Most people, as they grow older through the years tend to temper some of the ill feelings they harbor as they’ve had time to reflect. Jimmie will be a venom dripping jew hater until he draws his terminal breath.
Quite frankly, whatever funds he diverted is a pittance compared to the CGI.
Both appear to be laundering money to benefit terrorist orgs, Carter via the PLA, the Clintons their own pockets.
The poor senile old bastard is 93 years old. Does anyone think he directly controls the Carter Center? I’m not arguing that the center supports the PLO as Carter has always been supportive of them. JC has done this for decades while maintaining a disgusting toothy smile and an anti-Israeli attitude.
Carter is living proof of the old saying that “only the good die young”.
Democrats, doing the work that Sorus won’t do.
Carter could have given $12 Million directly to Hamas for weapons and ammunition. Nothing will come of it, the DOJ would never indict a former President or First Lady (or an IRS underling), even when evidence is overwhelming. The elite take care of the elite.
Strangely enough, Habitat for Humanity will build houses anywhere in the world. Except Israel.
At least Clinton stuck to doing what he did best…
Dickin’ Bimbos
Back in the day, the Trump family must have given money to Habitat For Humanity because Carter is way less obnoxious when it comes to Trump than the entire Bush family, combined.
He’s always been a bit of an anti-jew, a sentiment that’s on the rise recently.
Well, the proof is in.
Brain cancer is just a minor inconvenience when there’s no brain involved.
(see both Jiminy Carter and Juan McCain)
Vast, echoing nothingness between the ears – just the evil of pettiness and lives lived as lies.
“Depart, I say; and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!”
