Jimmy Carter Just Issued A Chilling Warning To Trump About Syria
Authored by Jessica Corbett via CommonDreams.org, ZeroHedge
Former President Jimmy Carter has added his voice to those urging President Donald Trump to refrain from launching an illegal military attack on Syria, warning of the serious dangers – including nuclear conflagration – that could result.
“I pray that he would keep our country at peace and not exaggerate or exacerbate the challenges that come up with North Korea, in Russia, or in Syria,” Carter told The Associated Press about Trump’s recent threats.
“I hope he realizes very profoundly as I did, and as other presidents have done,” Carter continued, “that any nuclear exchange could involve catastrophe for all human beings.”
Carter pointed out that even a military attack that doesn’t escalate into a nuclear exchange “is a dangerous thing” that can unleash unpredictable consequences.
Anti-war activists are also pressuring Trump to proceed cautiously.
“There is no proof yet of a Syrian government gas attack,” noted Veterans for Peace President Gerry Condon. “Even if the reports are true, a military response will only lead to more death and destruction, and dangerous escalations.”
Condon also pointed to nuclear concerns—considering Russia’s support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
“We are talking about a direct confrontation between the two nuclear superpowers,” Condon said.
“Why would the U.S. risk nuclear war over dubious chemical weapons claims?”
Pleas for restraint from peace advocates, members of Congress, international law experts, and at least one former president come amid mixed messages from Trump and an alarming report by Russia’s state-owned television station about possible war with the United States.
In a news segment on Wednesday, as Common Dreams reported, one Russian anchor “explained to viewers how to prepare for a potential war by stocking a bomb shelter—while images of nuclear explosions were shown behind him.”

Malachi 4:1 For, behold, the Day cometh, that shall burn like an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the “I AM” Lord of hosts, that it shall leave of them neither root nor branch (nothing).
I’ve had enough of this nation building in the middle east. I’m a hard-core conservative, but I believe we should have left Iraq & Libya alone. It takes a brutal dictator to keep those people under control, they’re barbarians, and brutality is all they understand. As far as Syria and this “chemical attack” (real or faked) goes; it’s just muslims killing muslims. Let’s stay out of their way, and let them do what muslims do, kill each other. That way, we won’t have to.
well said
since 1950, 10 MILLION muslims have been slaughtered by other muslims in the name of the same fairy-tale character
i am saddened by this, i was hoping the number would be over a billion
how does quoting fairy-tales help? this has nothing to do with your religious delusions and EVERYTHING to do with the petro-dollar
pretty simple stuff, simple enough even for you religious imbeciles
I agree with the former President. If Trump is naïve enough to fall for this False Flag, then the Deplorables, who truly wanted to see a CHANGE in our nation’s government in DC & Foreign Policy, have made a grave mistake. (May still be better than Globalist Traitor HRC though.)
He still has to go through Congress. And they’d better not be so stupid as to authorize a strike. Putin is NOT playing a game here people. And since the MSM won’t tell us that he and China are putting their Navy’s together at sea as I type this, (the order came from Putin for Russian ships to join Chinese ships on April 10), we may be in for a huge surprise!
So, how do We The People stop our leaders from making a terrible mistake that could get us nuked off the face of the earth????
I have no power alone. But we have ALL the power TOGETHER!!!!
you are deluded, you have no power, singularly or collectively – aside from ONE power
the power of revolution
Eretz Israel includes Lebanon and Syria. We must die to make that happen.
Foreign entanglements are to be avoided warned the founding fathers.
Russia is clearly on the right side on this one. Anyone with two brain cells knows Assad did not gas his own people just when everything was going his way. Just goes to show you how dishonest the people in dc are. They lie about everything to push their masters goals. They want a pipe line thru Syria and likely a Rothschild banking system of fiat dollars and want to protect the petrol-dollar so they can stay in power.
Also no one wants to see out men and woman in the military die over this false flag attack and even if it was true, it is none of our business. Likely a hoax brought to by the well funded terror organization called the white helmets.
But what are you advocating? That the nation should stand for any counter aggression from Russia? Remember, the U.S. was bombing over there, first, has dibs on it. Get it straight, get it clear. When the U.S. decides to bomb brown people, that don’t even have a working air force and didn’t actually do anything, themselves, that’s for Jesus, of course, not like some Godless commie, Russian Orthodox, like Putin, and I don’t want to hear Syria is a Russian ally, that invited Russia and has legal treaties with Russia. That’s not for Jesus, of course. And treaty, smeaty, like all them red skinned Injuns: we don’t need no stinking treaties! It’s also called “protecting our freedoms” from the likes of people, six thousand miles away, that sell felafels on the corner. Next thing, McDonald’s bottom line goes straight to hell, if you don’t ride herd on these things. And what if Putin does the unthinkable, says something like The Apprentice wasn’t good enough for YouTube? Do you expect the U.S. to simply roll over? No, we need to take it to the mats, for God, country and the Carlyle Group, that is, for Jesus, of course.
As I had informed you all in my earlier comments, Putin is not playing around in the seas! This article is on beforeitsnews in case you missed it.

Honestly, what does Carter know about foreign policy? He was a peanut farmer from Georgia. This is his foreign policy legacy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_hostage_crisis. He was a do-nothing… SMH
Honestly, what does Animal Trump know about foreign policy? He was a reality TV star and a questionable businessman (Trump U). So, I guess Carter is in good company.
He is the only President to have had the insight to warn us about the importance of getting out from under the clutches of big oil in order to stop 911 from happening, which President Carter did indeed emphatically warn us of.
When he was in office, the thought of terrorist attacks on our lawn was thought to be absurd.
But he knew it was not only not absurd but inevitable.
That simple minded bad actor reagan completely undid the things Carter put into place that would have taken the teeth out of OPEC , then helped bring Osama and Hussein into the world of power.
Persident Carter not only knows foreign policy, but warned the very congress that fought him tooth and nail as well as warning all american Citizens that what is going on today was on the horizon.
Right before the religious right who got Carter into office seen to it that he didn’t serve a second term because he refused to jack them off.
Jimmy Carter was defeated by Ronald Reagan because he tried to destroy America
It is claimed that Syria has multiple Stargate portals, which of course if true, the Zionists would ABSOLUTELY insist on having full control over.

This stupid peanut head help cause all of this down the road. Just wait a few years or even days for what the other stupid moron – the illegal Negro and sodomite obama did.
All of this effects us years and even days later and a Republican has to correct all the damage these stupid morons do.
Hey man, its’ only war.
It’s what we do.
Thought he died years ago??. WoW
Jimmy Carter at an old age done much real good I must say, he is better now than he was as a President .
I hate it when I agree with Carter.
Few people realize that the US is STILL at war with Iran. Iran has held the US Embassy hostage in Tehran since 1979 hostage crisis. That event was an act of WAR against the US.
That US property is STILL hostage.
Carter is not good or bad….he’s just a complete ignorant fool.
OLD MAN TALKING.
I can still remember Carter looking into the TV brainwashing camera and telling the nation we were about to run out of gas and oil and would need to park our cars. He said this so people wouldn’t mind those sky rocketing gas prices. As far as I am concerned he was just another lying Puppet like the Orange One.
By the time he left office, he was as despised as all the rest.
There is NO comparison between Carter and Trump. Trump is a towering genius compared to no brain Carter.
