JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Former President Jimmy Carter said Monday that Hamas is prepared to accept peace with Israel if the Palestinians approve any agreement negotiated with Israel.

Carter's comments came after controversial meetings Friday and Saturday in Damascus, Syria, with exiled militant Hamas leader Khalid Meshaal.

"If President (Mahmoud) Abbas of the Palestinians and Prime Minister (Ehud) Olmert reach an agreement for peace, and if it is submitted to the Palestinians and the Palestinians approve it... Hamas will accept it," Carter said in a Monday interview with CNN.

Is this negotiating with terrorist?

As a matter of fact it is. It's a felony.

And the 'man' doing the negotiating is the one who after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan said "I can't believe they (the Soviets) lied to me."

He was an idiot then, and he's an idiot now.

This is fantastic! James Earl Carter should have an unofficial self-imposed permanent stations in the Middle East, Venezuela, and some other places in South America as a self-appointed “ambassador of peace at large” - as a constant embarrassment and a reminder of the real goals and the means of achieving by the Democratic party.

Now that Obama / Clinton cat-fight exposed the huge rifts in race relations and exposed what Democrat elites and ruling class think of their most devoted and captive black / African-American constituency, it's high time for Jimmy Carter to do the same for the Jewish and Latin and some other constituencies and eclectic factions which comprises Democratic party.

Well done, Jimmy, and please, do keep it up! In the age of ADHD we need the constant reminders of the embarrassing nature of Democrats that you provide us in spades.
