If you believe the media, President Carter split the Red Sea, won more Super Bowls than Tom Brady, came down from Mount Sinai with the Ten Commandments, and, even though Paul Revere got the credit, was the person who rode through Lexington, and Concord yelling ‘the British are coming.
In the days since he passed away, Jimmy Carter was exalted as a man who brought peace to the world, but while he was President, he helped place murderers into office and took steps to promote the cause of terrorists. Below are some of the examples.
Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s ousted despot, Robert Mugabe, died at age 95, two years after he was forced from office after 37 years of murdering his own people and 36 tears after Carter left office.
Mugabe’s savage rule over Zimbabwe was dominated by murder, bloodshed, torture, persecution of political opponents, intimidation, and vote-rigging on a grand scale, rape of political opponents, confiscation of farms owned by Caucasians (which helped to destroy the economy) and persecution of Homosexuals—but few recall that it was American President Jimmy Carter who put him in office.
The white minority ruled the country despite consisting of only 5% of the population. Ian Smith, the Caucasian prime minister of what was then called Rhodesia, ruled the country. After fighting a guerrilla war and a U.N. security council-led boycott, Smiith’s white government finally reached a peace agreement with the black majority to end 15 years of white rule.
Finally free, the country elected its first Black Prime Minister, Bishop Abel Muzorewa. Well, he was the prime minister until Jimmy Carter got involved.
In April of 1979, the first fully democratic election in Zimbabwe history’s occurred. Of the eligible black voters, 64% participated, braving the threat of terrorist attacks by Mr. Mugabe’s Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front party, which managed to kill 10 people. Prior to the election, Mr. Mugabe had issued a death list with 50 individuals he named as “traitors, fellow-travelers, and puppets of the Ian Smith regime, opportunistic running-dogs and other capitalist vultures.”Nevertheless, Bishop Abel Muzorewa of the United Methodist Church emerged victorious and became prime minister of Zimbabwe-Rhodesia, as the new country was called.
However, Jimmy Carter didn’t want Bishop Muzorewa as Prime Minister because Mugabe’s party was not included in the election (it was his choice), Carter refused to recognize the new government.
[Jimmy Carter’s UN Ambassador Andrew] Mr.Young referred to Mr. Muzorewa, one of the very few democratically elected leaders on the African continent, as the head of a “neo-fascist” government. Mr. Carter refused to meet Mr. Muzorewa when the newly elected leader visited Washington to seek support from our country, nor did he lift sanctions that America had placed on Rhodesia as punishment for the colony’s unilateral declaration of independence from the British Empire in 1965.
Mugabe wanted the government to himself; he told everyone who would listen that he would turn the country into a single party, a Marxist state. The Carter administration knew this but refused to admit it in public. In public, he said that Mugabe was just the sweetest of guys. But American pressure eventually forced Muzorewa to call for new elections. The despot Mugabe was elected.
Robert Mugabe’s iron-fisted rule has subjected Zimbabwe to a reign of terror directed toward all of his people, both white and black. Not long after taking power in 1980, he began his reign of terror by killing about 20,000 people belonging to a minority tribe, the Ndebele. Mugabe has been killing people ever since, perhaps as a tribute to Jimmy Carter:
In 2005, Mugabe ordered a raid conducted on what the government termed “illegal shelters” in Harare, resulting in 10,000 urban poor being left homeless from “Operation Drive Out the Rubbish.” The authorities moved the poor inhabitants to the area in 1992, telling them not to build permanent homes and that their new homes were temporary, leading the inhabitants to create temporary shelters out of cardboard and wood. The UK’s Telegraph noted that Mugabe’s “latest palace,” in the style of a pagoda, was located a mile from the destroyed shelters. The U.N. released a report stating that the actions of Mugabe resulted in the loss of home or livelihood for more than 700,000 Zimbabweans and negatively affected 2.4 million more. (Source: Moore, Charles (March 6, 2005).” Mugabe’s raids leave townships in tatters.”
Veteran human rights activist and author Judith Todd, daughter of former South Rhodesia prime minister Garfield Todd, said in an interview that she was raped by a Zimbabwean army officer after criticizing President Robert Mugabe’s regime. In the rape camps of Zimbabwe, young girls are horrifically abused—often to punish Mugabe’s political opponents. . . . Mugabe has stationed two officers from his feared Central Intelligence Organisation in every village; merely talking to a murungu or white man can lead to interrogation or beatings.

Mugabe enjoyed being compared to Hitler. When someone made the comparison, due to his alleged racist attitudes towards white people, Mugabe responded, ‘I am still the Hitler of the time. This Hitler has only one objective, justice for his own people, sovereignty for his people, recognition of the independence of his people, and their right to their resources. If that is Hitler, then let me be a Hitler tenfold.”
At another time, he bragged about the violence of his regime, saying that he had “a degree in violence.”
He couldn’t have a degree in violence. After all, Jimmy Carter, a man of peace, put him into office.
Iran
Another “achievement” of Jimmy Carter’s that should be part of his legacy is the Islamist zealots running Iran. They want to run the entire Middle East while blowing up the United States and Israel. If they ever get their hands on “the bomb,” the resulting countless deaths will be part of why we remember Jimmy Carter (with Barack Obama and John Kerry)
When the Shah ran Iran, the country was so close to the West that some Arab countries referred to him as the West’s puppet. He was a good friend, and the U.S. guaranteed it would protect his regime.
Not so fast, Skippy
The Jerusalem Post wrote in 2007
Carter viewed Khomeini as more of a religious holy man in a grassroots revolution than a founding father of modern terrorism. Carter’s ambassador to the UN, Andrew Young, said “Khomeini will eventually be hailed as a saint.” Carter’s Iranian ambassador, William Sullivan, said, “Khomeini is a Gandhi-like figure.
The entire [Iran] nightmare can be traced back to the liberal democratic policies of the leftist Jimmy Carter, who created a firestorm that destabilized our greatest ally in the Muslim world, the shah of Iran, in favor of a religious fanatic, the Ayatollah Khomeini. Carter viewed Khomeini as more of a religious holy man in a grassroots revolution than a founding father of modern terrorism. Carter’s ambassador to the UN, Andrew Young, said “Khomeini will eventually be hailed as a saint.” Carter’s Iranian ambassador, William Sullivan, said, “Khomeini is a Gandhi-like figure.” Carter adviser James Bill proclaimed in a Newsweek interview on February 12, 1979 that Khomeini was not a mad mujahid, but a man of “impeccable integrity and honesty.” The shah was terrified of Carter. He told his personal confidant, “Who knows what sort of calamity he [Carter] may unleash on the world
Major protests occurred throughout the country. The Shah declared Marshall Law. The Shah offered the Ayatolla Khomeini to try to make peace, which was rejected.
While that was happening, the good friend of Iran, who guaranteed it would protect his regime, was speaking to the Ayatollah behind his back, according to the BBC.
From his home in exile outside Paris, the defiant leader of the Iranian revolution offered the Carter administration a deal. The Iranian military leaders listen to you, he said, but the Iranian people follow my orders.
(…)Persuaded by Carter, Iran’s autocratic ruler, Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, known as the Shah, had finally departed on a “vacation” abroad, leaving behind an unpopular prime minister and a military in disarray – a force of 400,000 men with heavy dependence on American arms and advice.
Khomeini feared the nervous military: its royalist top brass hated him. Even more worrying, they were having daily meetings with a US Air Force General by the name of Robert E Huyser, whom President Carter had sent on a mysterious mission to Tehran.
The Ayatollah was determined to return to Iran after 15 years in exile and make the Shah’s “vacation” permanent. So he made a personal appeal.
In a first-person message, Khomeini told the White House not to panic at the prospect of losing a strategic ally of 37 years and assured them that he, too, would be a friend.
“You will see we are not in any particular animosity with the Americans,” said Khomeini, pledging his Islamic Republic will be “a humanitarian one, which will benefit the cause of peace and tranquillity for all mankind.”
(…) Only two days after the Shah departed Tehran, the US told a Khomeini envoy that they were – in principle – open to the idea of changing the Iranian constitution, effectively abolishing the monarchy. And they gave the Ayatollah a key piece of information – Iranian military leaders were flexible about their political future.
Thus, Jimmy Carter traded a monarch friendly to the U.S. for the leader of a theocracy who believed the United States was the great Satan.
Today, thanks to the man of peace who refused to see the real world, Iran, via its Revolutionary Guard ( IRGC), is killing people throughout the world, including attacking American troops during the U.S. war with Iraq, attacking Pakistan, assisting Russia in its war with Ukraine, fund and control terrorist groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and others that attack the American Military and Israel. Iran’s IRGC even tried to kill Donald Trump in 2024 when he was running for President and many more killings.
Helping Ayatollah Khomeini fake over is another example of Jimmy Carter’s inability to comprehend the big picture of how each region of the world works.
The Taliban
Carter had his national security advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, successfully lure Russia to invade Afghanistan and create the Taliban (at least partially).
U.S. aid to the mujahideen Islamic insurgency in Afghanistan began six months before the Soviets invaded Afghanistan to make it more likely for the USSR to attack Afghanistan to support its puppet government. Brzezinski admitted as much in a 1998 interview:
According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise. That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Soviets into the Afghan trap…. The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter “We now have the opportunity of giving to the Soviet Union its Vietnam War.”
Carter got his wish, and once the Soviets invaded, he had Brzezinski spring into action. Per Brzezinski:
We immediately launched a twofold process when we heard that the Soviets had entered Afghanistan. The first involved direct reactions and sanctions focused on the Soviet Union, and both the State Department and the National Security Council prepared long lists of sanctions to be adopted, of steps to be taken to increase the international costs to the Soviet Union of their actions. And the second course of action led to my going to Pakistan a month or so after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, for the purpose of coordinating with the Pakistanis a joint response, the purpose of which would be to make the Soviets bleed for as much and as long as is possible; and we engaged in that effort in a collaborative sense with the Saudis, the Egyptians, the British, the Chinese, and we started providing weapons to the Mujaheddin, from various sources again – for example, some Soviet arms from the Egyptians and the Chinese. We even got Soviet arms from the Czechoslovak communist government, since it was obviously susceptible to material incentives; and at some point we started buying arms for the Mujaheddin from the Soviet army in Afghanistan, because that army was increasingly corrupt.
The unexpected result of this policy was the creation of the Taliban and its alliance with al Qaeda. After the Soviets withdrew, the mujahideen, who had received their initial financing during the Carter Administration, began to fight each other for power. After several years of civil war, a new armed force began with the backing of Pakistan. Known as the Taliban, this radical group entered the fray. By 1996, with backing from Pakistan, the Military of Pakistan, and al-Qaeda, the Taliban had controlled most of the country. At the same time, in May 1996 Sudan, which had been the home of al Qaeda, told bin Laden would never be welcome to return, therefore the Taliban offered bin Laden the opportunity to re-locate its headquarters to Afghanistan.
Carter’s mistaken efforts to create the Taliban partially led to a 19-year war, killing American military heroes and ending with an embarrassing pull-out, making the U.S…….. look weak and a target for anti-U.S. countries and terrorists.
The Taliban helped to protect al Qaeda, the terrorist group that conducted the September 11 attacks in the United States, which took the lives of 2,977 Americans. =
As part of the false praise by the media and politicians, Jimmy Carter is described as a man of peace. However, those who take an unbiased look at his tenure as President would find it more accurate to describe him as a creator of deadly regimes.
