US State Department officials are calling on former President Jimmy Carter not to meet with Hamas politburo leader Khaled Meshal.
American officials explain that Hamas remains on America’s terror list, and meeting with him is contrary to American interests at present.
Carter is also working to arrange a meeting with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert while in the region. According to local reports, the prime minister is seeking to evade such a meeting.
Carter will however be meeting with a number of high-ranking officials, including the president, foreign minister, defense minister and opposition leader.

Vote for Barak (Hussein) Obama and you will get this and a lot worse. Jeremiah Write taught him well. It’s just unfathomable that a Jew anywhere near traditional would consider voting for this liberal creep. (I guess if you go mixed swimming and do other dvarim ossurim you’re capable of voting this way) Ha-shem Yerachem!
I am challenging the State Department to PULL his passport! He says he is going as a private citizen for the Carter Foundation but when you are a former President there is NO SUCH THING!
I say pull his passport so he cant leave the country and meet with these terrorists whenever he wants!
#2 – better than pulling his passport so that he can’t leave the USofA, stop him from coming back in. Make him go live with the terrorists.
“Carter is also working to arrange a meeting with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert while in the region. According to local reports, the prime minister is seeking to evade such a meeting.”
Why is it necessary for a head of a sovereign state to feel the need to evade a meeting with a private citizen? Truth is, Israel is not really practically sovereign nor is it likely that former President Carter is really coming as a private citizen, public denials to the contrary not withstanding.
#1 What does mixed swimming or Dvarim Ossurim have to do with anything related to this article?
I really fell sorry for people like yourself, who take every oppurtunity to take a shot at other Yidden. The Beis Hamikdash was destroyed beacuse of Sinas Chinam, not mixed swimming! How about thinking before you speak. Looks like we have a long way go.
Good Shabbos
