Israel this week issued a formal rejection of a recent offer by former US President Jimmy Carter and former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan to mediate a ceasefire between the Jewish state and the Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip.
Carter and Annan sent their proposal to Israel several weeks ago, and noted that South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu and former Irish President Mary Robinson would also be part of the mediation team.
Carter, Annan, Tutu and Robinson have for decades been among the foremost international critics of Israel's right to defend itself against Arab Muslim terrorism and have regularly lent credibility to groups like Hamas that openly reject the Jewish state's very right to exist.
Nevertheless, Israel remained diplomatic in its response to what many viewed as a duplicitous offer of help by explaining that "at this time it would not be right to introduce more players into a diplomatic process that is already in a complex stage."

Let’s vote the whole group onto an island and let them ‘survive’ off of each other. Oh, and there will be no outgoing communications allowed.

Tell Jimmah to go to hell.....a ping bump for Israel....!!
To: Anti-Hillary
What it says:
“offer by former US President Jimmy Carter and former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan to mediate a ceasefire”
What it means:
were going to see if we can get Israel to surrender more land for the (false) promise of peace.
sorry Jimmah-but your Charlie Brown\Lucy with the football act is getting a little tired. Carter needs to go to the mountainous region of Pakistan and build habitat homes for Al Queda-I’m sure they’d welcome his efforts.
