Just when you think that Carter couldn't sink any lower, he proves you wrong... again.

(INN) A former U.S. Justice Department official disclosed to Arutz-7 that former U.S. President Jimmy Carter’s advocacy extended beyond the Palestinians, when he interceded on behalf of a Nazi SS man.
Neil Sher, a veteran of the U.S. Justice Department’s Office of Special Investigation, described a letter he received from Carter in 1987 in an interview with Israel National Radio’s Tovia Singer. The letter, written and signed by Carter, asked that Sher show “special consideration” for a man proven to have murdered Jews in the Mauthausen death camp in Austria.

Cooperation - yes. But it wasn't a scheme, they simply had similar goals.
Check out this post and this video about Islamonazism then and now.

THE HISTORY OF MARTIN BARTESCH
Martin Bartesch was a Volkdeutscher living on a farm in Romania. When he was 16 years old, in 1943, he entered the S.S. under great pressure to avoid service in Russia. He was never a member of the Hitler Youth or any Nazi organization. In September and October 1943 he received training outside of Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria and was then moved about 60 miles away to Linz III. This camp was a work camp (Arbeitslager) run by civilians under SS control and was not the site of beatings or atrocities. Testimony also showed that Bartesch had shared his cigarettes with his charges while on road building assignments and obtained extra food for them. While Mauthausen had been the site of atrocities, Linz III had not. In 1945 Bartesch was transferred to the eastern front. He served against the Soviets and was captured by them at the war's end. When the Soviets overran Romania he lost his home and country. In 1958 Martin Bartesch came to America as a refugee, raised a family here and was a model citizen. While Bartesch was stationed outside of the Mauthausen he did serve as a perimeter guard for three weeks and did shoot an escaping prisoner, named Max Ochsbron. The matter was recorded in the camp records and clearly showed that the prisoner had been trying to escape. Ochsbron appears to have been arrested for forgery.
THE HISTORY OF THE DEPORTATION CASE OF MARTIN BARTESCH
Sometime in 1985 this single entry on camp records was discovered by OSI investigators looking for leads. A computer match was made with the name of Martin Bartesch on immigration files. It was on this weak evidence that the OSI filed its lawsuit against Martin Bartesch. It also issued press releases which, as mentioned above, accused Bartesch of being a mass murderer. The attorneys at OSI did this despite their having a list of those S.S. who had been stationed at Mauthausen (Bartesch is not on them) and the list which shows he was at Linz III. A second OSI list also reveals that Bartesch was never stationed in Mauthausen. The OSI attorney directly in charge of the case was Michael Bernstein, who acted with the consent and approval of OSI director Neal Sher. It was only after the filing of the lawsuit that the OSI started to look for evidence against Bartesch. Advertisements were run in various newspapers stating "OSI urgently seeking Mauthausen witnesses." Investigators combed record files in Prague, Vienna, and Berlin. Bernstein and his aide (named Betty Shave) took several expensive trips to Israel and Paris to interview possible "witnesses." Despite an exhaustive search, the OSI did not discover any evidence of any kind which implicated Martin Bartesch in any crime. As one Department of State telegram put it, "All that could be established from documentation is that the French Jew (No. 14582) Max Ochsbron, born August 20, 1916 in Vienna died on October 28, 1943 at 9:55 A.M. while trying to escape (Auf der Flucht erschossen)."
Indeed, the OSI search only uncovered evidence which exonerated Bartesch. Various interviews with ex-prisoners state time and time again that the interviewees never saw any beatings or killings of prisoners by SS guards at Linz III or even heard of other prisoners complaining of beatings or killings. Linz is mentioned as being "relatively nice." The reports of many interviews are ended with OSI comment, "Interview not useful. He [interviewee] paints a rather easy picture of life at Linz III." Despite this clear evidence of Bartesch's innocence, Neal Sher did not drop the case, or even retract the more extreme and heinous accusations against Bartesch. The discovery requests of the immigration attorney for Bartesch were avoided and Michael Bernstein, with the approval of OSI director Neal Sher, concealed exonerating evidence from the Bartesch family. The declarations regarding mild conditions at Linz III were "forgotten". Even worse, documents were translated in a manner which increased the father's appearance of guilt (omitting the fact that Bartesch had disclosed that he had been in the S.S. in his entry documents and by adding "Concentration Camp Mauthausen" to the list of names of the Linz III guards implying that Linz guards served at Mauthausen. The OSI never admitted that the original charge of killing ten of thousands of persons was incorrect. During the Bartesch deportation suit various citizens wrote protest letters to the White House and Congress supporting Martin Bartesch. The leaked documents reveal that the OSI collected these protest letters and proposed taking administrative and legal action against the letter-writers. Michael Bernstein requested the immigration files of the letter writers in order to investigate them and a memo was circulated at OSI saying that the letters were "irritating" and discussing subpoenaing the protesters for depositions.
The OSI files were filled with collected newspaper articles and letters to the editors of various publications. Director Sher was careful to monitor the publicity OSI cases generated and the OSI evidently worked with private organizations to influence public opinion. A single tragedy put Martin Bartesch's name on a list which the Office of Special Investigation used to find possible Nazi war-criminals. Without any investigation, the OSI leveled the most serious charges against him and ruined him. That was irresponsible conduct for our government. The case was continued after the truth was known because the OSI couldn't admit that a mistake had been made. OSI hasn't had the decency to retract the original charges or to apologize to the Bartesch family.
