Looks like there were more Hamas thugs who wanted a hug from Jimmy Carter: Carter meets with more Hamas leaders, defends peace efforts.
CAIRO, Egypt - Jimmy Carter held another meeting with officials from the Islamic militant group Hamas on Thursday, arguing it is necessary to talk to all parties to achieve peace between the Palestinians and Israel.
The former U.S. president said he urged Hamas leaders from the Gaza Strip to stop militants from firing rockets into southern Israel. The Cairo meeting came a day after Carter talked with Hamas officials in the West Bank, further angering Israelis when he embraced one of them.
Making what he calls a private peace mission, Carter was scheduled to be in Syria on Friday for talks with Hamas’ exiled political chief, Khaled Mashaal, and Syrian President Bashar Assad.
