Response to Original message |
| 20. Here is my take on this - I think he knew that W was seriously talking about war with Iran |
|
and Carter thought if he let this out that it might give some weight to the argument that Iran needs to back down and so does the U.S. and talks should go on, not war!  |
| -Jimmy Carter says Israel had 150 nuclear weapons |
