Jimmy Carter Buys Absurd Story That Woman Beaten In Egypt Was Getting Help Up (Video)
-
How ignorant can former President Jimmy Carter really be? Would he really accept that a video of a woman getting beaten by Egypt’s military was fake or that she was actually getting help up? Sadly, it appears that Carter can be this ignorant. Here is the video in case you missed it.
From the NYT:
In a section of his report detailing “a thorough discussion” with Field Marshal Tantawi, the head of Egypt’s ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, Mr. Carter wrote:
Since the overthrow of King Farouk in 1953, Egypt has been governed by military leaders, who have accumulated and maintained full political and military power and substantial control over economic and commercial affairs. Despite the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak, the military has retained an overwhelming portion of its historic authority. Only pressure from the revolutionary forces on the streets has resulted in grudging concessions.
I was received with a friendly welcome as I congratulated the military leaders for what seemed to be a successful election, and then asked a number of questions. It seemed that the SCAF had full confidence that there would be accommodation to their demands by the Muslim Brotherhood and their coalition partners as the new government is formed. Instead of the reported 12,000 mostly political prisoners being held for trials in military courts, the Field Marshal stated that there were no more than 3,000, all of whom were guilty of criminal acts and being tried in civilian courts. He stated that the widely promulgated videos showing military attacks on demonstrators and a woman “with the blue brassiere” were all falsified. He said the soldiers were actually helping the woman re-clothe herself with what was provocative attire.
Disgusting. And recall this is the same Carter who thinks the Muslim Brotherhood taking over Egypt will be good for Israel.
