The film the world never viewed:
Fahrenheit Jimmy Carter

By Judi McLeod
Wednesday, May 31, 2006
Ex-U.S. President Jimmy Carter is in league with Osama bin Laden.
A paper trail shows that more than $1 million has been funneled from Bakr M. Bin Laden on behalf of the Saudi Bin Laden Group to The Carter Center.
That’s an impressive bit of investigative journalism that comes your way, not courtesy of the New York Times and company, but from Melanie Morgan, Chairman, Censure Carter Committee (Censure Carter Committee ).
"An investigation by the Censure Carter Committee into the financing for The Carter Center of Atlanta, Georgia founded by President Carter and his wife to advance his "Blame America First" policies reveals that over $1,000,000 has been funneled from Bakr M. Bin Laden for the Saudi Bin Laden Group to the Carter Center," says Censure Carter.Com in a mainstream media-ignored recent media release.
"In fact, an online report accuses former President Carter of meeting with 10 of Osama Bin Laden’s brothers early in 2000, Carter and his wife, Rosalyn followed up their meeting with a breakfast with Bakr Bin Laden in September 2000 and secured the first $200,000 towards the more than $1 million that has been received by the Carter Center."
These facts take a back seat to `shockumentary’ maker Michael’s Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 accusations of President George W. Bush having close bin Laden ties.
Don’t wait for Hollywood to set the record straight.
"If you think this news troubles Michael Moore and his friends in the liberal, anti-war crowd, think again," says CensureCarter.com. "You see, they’re not interested in the truth–they only seem interested in advancing their defeatist political message: "America is almost always wrong–America is the source of many of the world’s problems."
Still basking in the limelight of Fahrenheit 9/11 during the 2004 Democratic National Convention, the Carters hosted Michael Moore in the presidential viewing box, while ex-President Bill Clinton addressed the flock.
In terms of risking American national security, doesn’t the continuing Carter pattern show shades of Benedict Arnold?
Getting in a lather won’t stop the peanut farmer or the shockumentary meister.
With help, Melanie Morgan and Censure Carter Campaign will,
The campaign is about to launch its second wave of television ads on national television networks asking Americans to rebuke Carter’s efforts in North Korea, Iraq, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba and elsewhere.
The mainstream media is pretending that the Carter-bin Laden story is a non-issue, so the Censure Carter Campaign is out raising the money to air the facts in TV ads.
"The more money we raise, the more airtime we can purchase," say campaign organizers.
"A typical spot on CNN or Fox News during the daytime will cost us about $4,000-$6,000. We must collect the contributions of thousands of people who can make a $25, $50, $100 or $250 contribution.
"Or we can make up our goals with fewer people contributing a more generous amount–say $500, $1,000, $2,500 or even the full $4,000 or $6,000 to buy each spot that will be seen by people all across the nation,
"No matter what you can afford, please make your contribution now, and help us get the message out."
Michael Moore notwithstanding, the truth really matters.
Meanwhile, not all peanuts growing in Georgia are in the ground.

[eek.]

Bloody hell, even Jimmy Carter is a traitor.
George Bush sends f-16s and advanced missile technology to Pakistan.
Even those great American Patriots Ronald Reagan and Oliver North did arms deals with Iran and Iraq.

You guys should all just convert to Islam.

If you are going to talk about financial connections of Americans with Bin Laden's than i'm sure you would want to ignore those of George W. Bush and his family.


The Bush-bin Laden Connection
BY ANDREW WHEAT

n intriguing sideline to the War On Terrorism lies in the murky Texas ties that existed between the Bush and bin Laden clans before September 11th. According to the official story, the rest of the huge bin Laden family has disowned Osama. While this argument creates a moral firewall for anyone dealing with the other bin Ladens, the firewall is undermined by circumstantial evidence to the contrary. The U.S.-led effort to freeze Osama-linked assets reportedly is probing financial transactions of the wider bin Laden clan, which is closely tied to the Saudi royal family. In fact, as Seymour Hersh reports in a recent New Yorker article, it is far from clear that the royal family, which has thousands of princes, has forsaken Muslim extremists. Indeed, some members of the royal family itself are said to bankroll Osama bin Laden. The Saudi monarchy, Hersh reports, has also quietly resisted U.S. efforts to conduct background checks of Saudi suspects in the wake of September 11. While much remains to be learned about these shadowy connections, it is clear that any investigation of the bin Laden’s family’s U.S. investments will lead to some well-placed Texans.
Like George W. Bush, the fortune of Osama bin Laden is rooted in oil and his family’s government connections. Before his death in a 1968 plane crash, Osama’s father, Mohammed bin Laden, made a fortune off construction contracts awarded by the Saudi royal family. The $5 billion per year construction conglomerate, known as the Binladin Group (the company uses another spelling of the name) remains closely tied to the Saudi royal family.
After the death of Mohammed bin Laden, control of the company passed to Salem bin Laden, Osama’s half brother. The roots of the first known Bush-bin Laden convergence date back to the mid-1970s, when the two clans were linked by a Houston businessman named James R. Bath. Bath had befriended George W. Bush in the late 1960s, when they both served in the Texas Air National Guard. By 1976, when Gerald Ford appointed the elder George Bush as CIA director, Bath was acting as a business agent for Salem bin Laden’s interests in Texas. (Texas and Saudi Arabia were well-connected by this point through U.S. oil companies and related industries with operations in both locations.) In 1991 Time magazine and later other publications reported on allegations by Bath’s former business partner that the Bush CIA hired Bath in 1976 to create offshore companies to move CIA funds and aircraft between Texas and Saudi Arabia.
After W. lost a bid for Congress, he decided to launch an oil company in Midland in 1979. For $50,000, Bath bought a 5 percent stake in W.’s Arbusto (Spanish for "Bush") partnerships. At the time, Bath also served as business agent for several prominent Saudis, including Salem bin Laden. In exchange for a percentage of the deals, Bath made U.S. investments for these clients in his own name, according to Time. Although Bath has said that he invested his own money in Arbusto, not Saudi money, the fact that he was Salem’s agent at the time has fueled speculation that Osama bin Laden’s eldest brother was an early investor in W.’s first oil venture. It was around the time of this investment, incidentally, that Osama bin Laden made his first trip to the Khyber Pass, where he would soon join the Mujaheddin and the CIA in the holy war that expelled the Soviets from Afghanistan. (Salem, for his part, owned a house in Marble Falls, and died in a 1988 plane crash near San Antonio.)
The bin Ladens cemented clearer-cut financial ties with the Bush clan in 1995, when they invested $2 million in the Carlyle Group. Carlyle specializes in the buyout of government defense contractors, and many of its principals were heavyweights in the Reagan and Bush administrations. Carlyle’s chair is former Reagan Administration Defense Secretary Frank Carlucci. Former Bush Secretary of State James A. Baker III is a Carlyle partner and the firm’s senior counsel. Ex-President Bush himself is a Carlyle board member and its senior Asian advisor. In recent years, Carlyle has dispatched Carlucci, Baker and Bush to Saudi Arabia to butter up the bin Ladens. Amid controversy over the relationship last month, Carlyle and the bin Ladens severed their ties. The bin Ladens’ departure coincided with Carlyle’s announcement that it expected to raise approximately $300 million by taking its privately held United Defense Industries public. Among other things, this defense contractor pro- duces missile launch systems that are currently aboard U.S. war ships in the Arabian Sea.
Current President Bush has his own connections to Carlyle and the bin Laden family. Carlyle appointed W. in 1990 to the board of its Caterair subsidiary, an airline catering company. W. stepped down from this board in 1994, the year he was elected governor. With W. as governor, Carlyle landed at least two business deals involving Texas government funds. In the same month that Bush was elected president, the Teacher Retirement System of Texas selected Carlyle to invest $100 million of its pension funds. In 1996, the quasi-public University of Texas Investment Management Company (UTIMCO) began awarding lucrative contracts to private firms to invest portions of UT’s $14 billion endowment. The Houston Chronicle reported that UTIMCO’s board (which is appointed by the governor’s handpicked UT System Regents) awarded many of these contracts to firms close to W.–including Carlyle. As of May 2001, Carlyle controlled more than $15 million of University of Texas public endowment funds. This includes $10.5 million that is commingled in the same Carlyle Partners II Fund where the bin Ladens parked their money.
It is a daunting task to unravel the ties between Texas and Saudi oil money, as well as the ties between the Saudi royal family, the bin Laden clan and Osama bin Laden. In this regard, the people of Saudi Arabia and the United States may share a common fate. We may never know the half of it.

That was supposed to say "wouldn't want to ignore" although mabye it was correct the way I wrote it.

An investigation by the Censure Carter Committee into the financing for The Carter Center of Atlanta, Georgia founded by President Carter and his wife to advance his "Blame America First" policies reveals that over $1,000,000 has been funneled from Bakr M. Bin Laden for the Saudi Bin Laden Group to the Carter Center,"

I love how this makes it look like there was this brilliant piece of investigative reporting which revealed this "funneling" of money. If you go to the Carter Center website, in their annual report you will find listed under donors who have given over 1 million cumulative Bakir M. BinLadin for the Saudi BinLadin Group. You will also find such terrorist organizations as Home Depot, BellSouth, and IBM.

 

[davidbird]

The Carter Center were given their first donation by the Saudi BinLadin Group before 9-11. To their credit, they did not stop listing their donation after the name became infamous. Carter Center does charitable work all over the world, including Saudi Arabia. It would have been odd had the largest business in Saudi Arabia, the BinLadin Group, not donated. Osama is one of over 50 siblings of this family. They broke all known ties with him in the early 90's after he was expelled from the country. BinLaden Group has donated millions to charities and colleges all over the world including the U.S.

Judi McLeod, the author of the article accusing Carter, gave us the theory that the mafia, not terrorists, was responsible for 9-11.

Carter was probably the last truely decent man involved in politics, so this thread makes complete sense.

He was one of the worst presidents in history - the guy did everything possible to alienate his own party - he was a one term president for a good reason!

BB, I never said he was a good president, just a good man.
