Carter Leaks Data

Former President Jimmy Carter said Israel held at least 150 nuclear weapons, the first time a current or former American president had publicly acknowledged the Jewish state’s nuclear arsenal. Asked at a news conference in Wales on Sunday how a future president should deal with the Iranian nuclear threat, he sought to put the risk in context by listing atomic weapons held globally. “The U.S. has more than 12,000 nuclear weapons, the Soviet Union has about the same, Great Britain and France have several hundred, and Israel has 150 or more,” he said, according to a transcript. The existence of Israeli nuclear arms is widely assumed, but Israel has never admitted their existence and American officials have stuck to that line in public for years.

There is a reason why no current or former president discussed Israel's nuclear arsenal.
Once again Jimmy Carter's need for attention supersedes America's interests. But was it criminal or just dangerous?
Either way, on the Left it's forgiven... In fact it's in vogue.

It's errant as well. Much like his last book, which resulted in most of his staff walking out on him because of his blantant written falacies. It was anti-Israel as well.

I wrote more on this yesterday at my blog. In all honesty, I question Carter's ability to be any type of "ambassador" anymore.
