Malignancy is as Malignancy Does





My wife's medical practice in the States entailed more than just a few patients who have certain forms of cancer, and so, her face was not unfamiliar in the Oncological areas of the hospital where she practiced.  She is soon slated to begin her new job here in Israel (she has already gone in unofficially for some paperwork and for some seminar training sessions), and will likely have at least some patients with cancer issues. 

Between the stories my wife tells me, and firsthand observation of more than a few friends and relatives, I appreciate cancer for the horrible affliction it is.  Accordingly, I do not wish cancer on anyone.

And so, I shall not celebrate, jubilate, or gloat over ex-President Jimmy Carter's announcement that he now is battling cancer.  I only ask that he stay true to his principles by seeking treatments for his malady from his friends the Arabs, and by boycotting any cancer treatments or medications that were developed in Israel, the country he unabashedly despises and whose eradication he still actively pursues even in his retirement from the Oval Office.

Remember the Passover Story

So now, former President Jimmy Carter is calling Israel's restrictions upon the entry into Gaza of materiels that can be (and in fact are being) used to kill Israeli civilians an atrocity.

No doubt, other real Americans will point out One-Term Jimmy's hypocrisy in his failure to condemn (and indeed, his support of) even greater atrocities, such as thousands of rockets, launched on an almost daily basis, into the civilian town of Sderot. And, no doubt, other real American bloggers will speak out about his other acts of treason.

I only wish to point out two things here:

(1) Everyone seems to have forgotten Jimmy Carter's piss poor record with Muslim terrorists, specifically, the Iranian Hostage crisis. It took a Ronald Reagan to get the American hostages released, after Carter was unsuccessful for well over a year.

(2) As I write this, Carter is now in Cairo, cozying up to the Hamas terrorists. But where is Cairo? It is in Egypt! And what Jewish holiday is coming up in less than 48 hours? Remember that we have been commanded to remember how G-d saved us from our enslavement in Egypt! Hey, Jimmy! Remember what happened to the Pharoah!!!
