Jimmy Carter actually said...

"But in the future the burden of persuasion will be on those who favor a particular arms sale, rather than those who oppose it."

"I believe that the United States must take steps to restrain its arms transfers."

"The United States, as a condition of sale for certain weapons, may stipulate that we will not entertain any requests for retransfers."

"The virtually unrestrained spread of conventional weaponry threatens stability in every region of the world."
