Syrian President Bashar Assad on Saturday discussed prospects for peace in the Middle east with former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Syria and Israel this year held four rounds of indirect talks mediated by Turkey, but the talks made no significant headway. Advertisement In Syria Carter is also expected to meet with the exiled leadership of Hamas, Khaled Meshal. Carter's first meeting with Meshal in April drew sharp criticism from the Bush administration which labels Hamas as a terrorist group.

[RexBeach]

Why would anyone, anyone at all, care about what Mr. Carter thinks about anything?

For a successful life, watch Mr. Carter. Whatever he does, do the opposite and you will have a happy and wonderful life.

Yeah, so they supported an oppressive dictator, like the Repubs and Democrats haven't? The CP is still around, has apologized for that whole Stalin thing, and has a quickly growing youth section.

On Friday, Carter said that he would have been delighted to meet Hezbollah officials and that he regrets the meeting didn't take place during his current visit to Lebanon.

Why does the State dept. give this clown a pssport?

Carter spent five days talking to top Lebanese leaders and members of parliamentary blocs but didn't meet with lawmakers from the militant Hezbollah. The Iranian-backed Shiite group is on the U.S. State Department's terrorist list.

Hezbollah just about runs Lebanon, just what did Jummy Carter accomplish?

The former U.S. leader had said he was ready to meet Hezbollah but they refuse to meet current or former U.S. presidents.

Yeah, their masters in Iran think it's bad press in the Arab world to meet with former Presidents or simply know it's a waste of propaganda to meet with the peanut farmer

Someone needs to pull Carter’s Passport NOW!

And on time, too!

WOULD SOMEBODY THROW ANOTHER SHOVEL FULL ON JIMMAH? Th’ ol’ bastard has been dead for years and refuses to know it.

[steveyp]

F this man.

That he continues to do damage to this country by giving aid and comfort to our enemies and the enemies of our friends disgusts me.

His last breath cannot come soon enough.

Of course they did: They both agreed that if Israel would surrender and allow it's citizens to be killed, there would be peace in the Middle East
