Jimmy Carter said Friday he would have been "delighted" to meet with Hezbollah officials during his visit to Lebanon and regretted the militant group's leaders refuse to meet with current or former American presidents.

Carter spent five days talking to top Lebanese leaders and members of parliamentary blocs but didn't sit down with lawmakers from the Iranian-backed Hezbollah, which is on the State Department list of terrorist groups.

...

During a lecture at the American University of Beirut on Friday, Carter expressed disappointment Hezbollah refused to see him.

"We came here with the hope that we can meet with all the political parties and factions in Lebanon," he said. "If the leaders of Hezbollah wanted to meet with me, I would have been delighted."

Everyday Obama looks at an autographed photo of Carter and says “I will do you proud Jimmy”

No, no, no, Jimmah. Remember, we told you to say that you would be “derided” to meet with Hezbollah.

And I regret that we suffered under the administration of this prune-faced, peanut-brained simpleton.

I wish he hadn't been born.

Hezbollah didn’t want to waste their time on the fawning peanut brained idiot.

The question should be does he regret not removing his buddy Mugabe from office the last time he did see him?

I’m sure the question Hezbollah asked. “Why would we want to meet with that idiot?”

I'm starting to think he may be the most arrogant man on the planet.

What he does is not a stupidity problem, it's the arrogant belief he can replicate the success of his Camp David agreement in 1978 he forged between Egypt and Israel, which today would be impossible to do with radicalized proxy governments as peace partners

What he fails to realize is the radical Islamic sects that emerged in the 80's forever closed the door on the concept of peace with Israel. He cannot go back and redo history

That is a rare level of arrogance, not stupidity.

“No other explaination for his strange behavior.”

Strange, it’s his normal behavior. He makes Al Frankenstein look sane.
