JERUSALEM – The Hamas terrorist organization has confirmed to WND plans are in the works for former President Jimmy Carter to meet the chief of Hamas on a trip this month to Syria.
Sources in the Gaza Strip office of Ismail Haniyeh, the deposed prime minister of the Hamas-led Palestinian government, confirmed Hamas is in talks with Carter's representatives about setting up a meeting during his trip, scheduled for later this month.
The Hamas sources said no concrete date has been set but that Carter has expressed interest in meeting Hamas chieftain Khaled Meshaal, who resides in Syria.
In a statement to Fox News today, Carter's press secretary, Deanna Congileo, did not deny the former president was slated to meet Meshaal.
"President Carter is planning a trip to the Mideast next week; however, we are still confirming details of the trip and will issue a press release by the end of this week," Congileo said. "I cannot confirm any specific meetings at this point in time."
Earlier, Ahmed Yousuf, Hamas' top political adviser in the Gaza Strip, claimed to WND he wasn't aware of any Carter-Meshaal meeting.
"I don't know anything about any such meeting," said Yousuf, who advises Haniyeh.

Why are we not surprised that this vain nasty man will meet with bloody terrorist murderers?
Hope they give him something nice to take home, as a souvenir.
Preferably, something made of Semtex.
Ping.

I guess nobody told them that Jimah is no longer president.
Oh that was Reagan coming into office that got the hostages free. Or what about that Berlin Wall thing, Oh wait Reagan again.
How about ending that recession with the tax cuts, Shoot that was Reagan again.

I know it’s been said many times before, but it appears that the meddling twit James Earl Carter, probably the worst US president EVER, desires to embrace and extoll as many murderous thugs as possible.
American tradition was that no ex-president would meddle in foreign affairs after his term, and none did, until James Earl Carter.
James Earl Carter was ousted after one term, because the people were outraged at his attempt to destroy the U.S. from within. God blessed us with Ronald Reagan, who soundly thrashed the Carter communist menace, and Carter’s erosive, corrosive plan was thwarted.
But the self-important, arrogant anti-American BIGOT, James Earl Carter is not happy with his lifetime pension and Secret Service protection. On our dime, this maggot has taken it upon himself to continue trying to destroy America by embracing, encouraging and assisting it’s most virulent and violent enemies.
James Earl Carter is a traitor.
He is an anti-American BIGOT.
He is more despicable than even Bill XXX Clinton.
His passport should have been pulled a LONG time ago.
You are spot on!
GMTA!
I was thinking maybe Hamas could talk him into wearing one of those belts they set up those poor Downs Syndrome girls with.
Send him into an adoring crowd of Palis and give his vest a “call”... for the children of course!
Tis will cause Obama big trouble..after the whole Wright mess...
All Meester Jimmah did for America was smile that stoopid smile, inflict his nasty wife on the scene (remember HER comments about Republicans), and then screw up the country royally, and he is still at it today. We can point to the Demoncrat Party and let America know that this is the intention of both B. Hussein and Queen Hillary as well. Appeasement.
World famous opponent of South African apartheid, Nelson Mandela, celebrated his 89th birthday last Wednesday by announcing the formation of a Global council of elders, known simply as "The Elders."
So far The Elders includes Kofi Annan, Desmond Tutu, Gro Harlem Brundtland, Mary Robinson, Jimmy Carter, Li Zhaoxing, Muhammad Yunus, Ela Bhatt, Graca Machel, and, of course, Nelson Mandela.
Man.
Every time I start to get really fed up with our current president, Carter comes out of his hole and puts everything back into perspective. Thanks, Jimmah!
Hamas, please keep him!

....couldn’t of said it any better.
Might as well wait until he's in the meeting, then pull it.
