Carter 'distressed' by Gaza visit

Mr Carter advocates talks with Hamas

Former US President Jimmy Carter has said he had to "hold back tears" while viewing destruction on a visit to Gaza.

He met leaders from Hamas, which controls Gaza but is shunned as a terrorist group by western countries.

The veteran politician handed over a letter from the family of captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, who he said he believed was "alive and well".

He criticised Israel's blockade and January military operation in Gaza, and called for an end to all violence.

The former US president, who brokered the 1979 Israel-Egypt peace deal, has long advocated engagement with the militant Hamas movement as crucial for progress on peace.

Standing beside Ismail Haniyeh, a Hamas leader and former Palestinian prime minister, Mr Carter said he was visiting Gaza as a private citizen, but would be be passing on what he had seen and heard to President Barack Obama.

Mr Haniyeh praised a "new language and new spirit" coming out of Washington, and reiterated that Hamas would support "a genuine project" aimed establishing a Palestinian state "with full sovereignty" within the pre-1967 borders.

Although Hamas's charter calls for Israel's destruction, leaders have offered a 10-year truce in exchange for a state in the West Bank and Gaza, occupied by Israel in 1967.

A spokesman for Hamas's military wing told AP news agency it would "study the possibility" of delivering the letter from the family of Gilad Shalit, who has been in captivity for three years.

Mr Carter condemned "deliberate" destruction in Israel's January offensive, but also expressed sadness over Palestinian rocket attacks on Israeli towns.

Visiting the American School in Gaza, damaged in Israel's three-week operation, Mr Carter said "it's very distressing to me".

He said the school had been "deliberately destroyed by bombs from F-16s made in my country and delivered to the Israelis".

Mr Carter also criticised Israel's blockade of the Strip, which prevents all but humanitarian basics entering Gaza - and extends to a ban on virtually all building materials.

Gazans "are treated more like animals than human beings," Mr Carter said.

"Never before in history has a large community like this been savaged by bombs and missiles and then been deprived of the means to repair itself," he said.

Visiting Israel earlier this week, Mr Carter said a major policy speech given by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "raised many new obstacles to peace".

While Mr Netanyahu yielded to US pressure to back the creation of a Palestinian state, he set the conditions that it must be demilitarised and recognise Israel as a Jewish state.

You do know we're looking at Obama, this is what the Messiah will be doing when he's kicked out in 2012, he'll still continue his world tour trying to get people to aknowledge him as he thrives on attention like this douchebag peanut farmer. I still can't believe that he had the audacity to suggest that Hamas should be removed from the "Terrorist List".

This guy needs to shove off, for good!

He's not actually alive. Top Hezbollah engineers are just manipulating his corpse with servo motors.

Even more wrong is Carter putting the lives of SS in jeopardy so he can rub elbows with the worlds worst terrorists.

There's someone in a bombed-out mudhole in Gaza who thinks that socialist do-nothing douchebag speaks for me.

Is it not ironic that this pos has spent his whole life defending this scum

My dad went on a skiing trip with some friends in the early 80's. His friend got going too fast and slammed right into this girl on the slope. In about 15 seconds, there were 5 undercover cops around him with guns. He had just discovered that he had flattened Jimmy Carters daughter. Story of his life.

Exactly right! And Obammy is still young, so he's going to be like this for atleast 40 years.

It seems to me Egypt has a common border with Gaza and are also blockading Gaza, why has Carter not criticized Egypt?

Maybe it is all that money Carter has been paid by Arabs… no Jews to hate in Egypt either.

You know, I'm actually starting to wonder if there might be some truth to that. That he might just be antisemitic.

I am thinking there is more fiction and theatrics to that part of this entire bullshit story.

Let's see, the Palestinians have an enormous unemployment rate because they have no industry, their major source of employment is Isreal, they get tons of money from the rest of the world, and they use it to pay murders to kill Israelis.

All they would have to do is stop terrorism against Israel for a while and they would have their own state, but apparently it is more important to them to murder Jews than to have a state and a legitimate government.

Fuck them, and especially fuck Carter

. He ought to go back to repairing homes. Pounding nails is about the limit of his abilities.

I recall hearing multiple road side bombs were found and cleared that were in the path of his motorcade.

Ex-Presidents and Ex-Vice-Presidents still alive:
Jimmy Carter (D)
Walter Mondale (D)
George H. W. Bush (R)
Dan Quayle (R)
Bill Clinton (D)
Al Gore (D)
George Bush (R)
Dick Cheney (R)

Those who regularly are in the news:
Carter, Clinton, Gore, Cheney (very recently)

Anyone notice a pattern?

Although Hamas's charter calls for Israel's destruction, leaders have offered a 10-year truce in exchange for a state in the West Bank and Gaza, occupied by Israel in 1967.

Somehow this reads as "Peace in Our Time" to me.

Maybe they will "renew" the truce at their leisure.?

I bet that soldier was behead a long time ago.

Oh brother, Carter, a marginalized little man who was the weakest president the U.S. has ever seen. I remember well, the carter days. When Iran snatched up 52 American hostages and put their figurative dick in Carter's mouth.... Carter swallowed.

He must have a thing for Middle Eastern cock.

Does Carter have a Messiah/martyr complex?

Does he believe he must die in order for peace to come to the middle east?

Begin passed away in ?1992, Sadat was murdered in 1981...

Carter can FOAD for all I care...he's a total failure as a person and wastes oxygen with every breath.
