RAMALLAH, West Bank Jimmy Carter reportedly hugged and kissed a Hamas leader Tuesday in the West Bank on a Mideast visit that will culminate in a meeting with the terror group's exiled leader in Syria later this week.
Carter's embrace of Nasser Shaer, a senior Hamas politician, at a closed-door reception organized by Carter's office was reported by several news outlets Tuesday. Carter has been widely criticized over the trip by both U.S. and Israeli officials, who have listed Hamas as a terror organization.
Carter also laid a wreath at the grave of Yasser Arafat, whom he praised as a man who fought for "just causes" in the world. The Bush administration and many Israelis blame Arafat for the breakdown of peace talks seven years ago and the violence that followed.
"He gave me a hug. We hugged each other, and it was a warm reception," Shaer told The Associated Press. "Carter asked what he can do to achieve peace between the Palestinians and Israel ... and I told him the possibility for peace is high."
"Carter has weight and respect, and I hope he'll have a role and effect on the Palestinian problem," Shaer said, according to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

I hope he catches something from kissing those terrorists! What a disgusting display of anti-Americanism from a former President.

Too bad Ol’ Liverspots didn’t go “all the way” with Arafat. With any luck he would have croaked from AIDS by now.

Later that evening, the two went on to have dinner, caught a movie and ended up at a cheap motel for the night.

Any chance he and Roseline become suicide bombers?
At the very least he and Amy must try to stop an Israeli bulldozer.
I am not promoting suicide bombings in any way shape or form.

The Pope comes to the states, and Carter leaves to kiss the terrorists...
Carter is anti-catholic as well as an anti-semite.

Carter is still stinging from his thorough rejection by the American people in 1980. What made the rejection even worse was it was followed by one of the most beloved and successful Presidents in history. Carter’s behavior since then has been one long “oh yeah, I’ll show you.”

Pea nuts. Jimmahs ego has far surpassed the late 1970's double digit inflation rates.
