Former President Jimmy Carter said: "The overt reversal of America's basic values as expressed by previous administrations, including those of George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon and others, has been the most disturbing to me. We now have endorsed the concept of pre-emptive war where we go to war with another nation militarily, even though our own security is not directly threatened, if we want to change the regime there or if we fear that some time in the future our security might be endangered. But that's been a radical departure from all previous administration policies. And I think the almost undeviating support by Great Britain for the ill-advised policies of President Bush in Iraq have been a major tragedy for the world."
Comment by Boris Tiraspolsky:
Dear former President Jimmy Carter, I am glad "that's been a radical departure from all previous administration policies." Thank God! Modern terrorist warfare actually had begun on your watch. You had a chance to prove that you were not "the worst in history". Therefore, making assessments for President Bush being worse then you had been, looks like your attempt to rewrite the History. The undeniable truth is that you had done literally nothing having a historical chance to stop Islamic Terrorism in its cradle in 1979. Because of your questionable "values" President Bush and his Administration have to combating Global Islamic Terrorist System 2001- 2008.
