Hamas confirms plan to meet Jimmy Carter

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.

Would be nice to have an administration with the stones to charge these traitors......

I couldn't agree more. Heck it would be nice if the administration would strictly enforce The Federal Immigration and Nationality Act when it comes to deporting illegal aliens but Bush administration has no intention of defeating their goal of amnesty for illegals.

Good Idea, but in typical Carter fashion, he would be a failure.

the elders of George Orwell’s “Brave New World”?

Orwell did not write "Brave New World." I think it was Huxley. Orwell wrote "1984."

Hamas, please keep him!

Poetic justice would be if they took him hostage and kept him for 444 days.

I know this will sound like a ‘humor of the day’ but to add a new one...Jon Bon Jovi.

The Clintons were here in NJ and have primed Bon Jovi to run as our next governor. It was reported in Page 6 (and I forgot the other source...I have it filed if needed) that Jon Bon Jovi is being referred to as an Elder now also.
