Reports: Carter Hugs, Kisses Hamas Official in West Bank Meeting
Fox News ^ | 04/15/2008

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.

Here it is. Living proof of the deep and loving alliance of the left and the jihadis. Clear as can be. Marxists love the headchoppers because they both hate Western Civilization (Judaism and Christianity).

I don’t like either pic, but I know that the President did not kiss the king on the lips. That pic is obviously a favorite of Bush loathers.

In WW2 this kind of action would have gotten you charged with treason. Would love to see carter rot in jail for the rest of his life.
