Diplomacy: Former President Carter claims his brilliant peacemaking had it all solved in North Korea until George W. Bush's warmongering ruined it. He's forgetting a decade's worth of communist cheating.
Our 39th president, during whose tenure the Soviets invaded Afghanistan and Islamofascists came to power in Iran, was preaching on foreign policy Wednesday from the pulpit of the op-ed page of the New York Times.
According to Carter, "it is unlikely that the North Koreans will back down (from their nuclear weapons program) unless the United States meets this basic demand" — a declaration that we have no hostile intent toward North Korea.
The U.S. giving in to bloodthirsty tyrants: For Carter and congressional Democrats, that's always the answer that will bring us world peace. Carter now wants President Bush to go back on his pledge not to have direct talks, and secretly send someone like former Secretary of State James Baker to sit down with Kim Jong Il.
