JIMMY CARTER HASN'T LOST HIS TOUCH. Jimmy Carter: the gift that keeps on giving has no return policy. The headline from The Jerusalem Post reads:
Carter: Stop favoring Fatah over Hamas
But lest you think Carter means both should be considered terrorists, read on:
The United States, Israel and the European Union must end their policy of favoring Fatah over Hamas, or they will doom the Palestinian people to deepening conflict between the rival movements, former US President Jimmy Carter said Tuesday.

Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate who was addressing a conference of Irish human rights officials, said the Bush administration's refusal to accept the 2006 election victory of Hamas was "criminal."

Carter said Hamas, besides winning a fair and democratic mandate that should have entitled it to lead the Palestinian government, had proven itself to be far more organized in its political and military showdowns with the Fatah movement of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas. [emphasis added]
That's right--Hamas was better at butchering they're own people: Let's give them a state!

Carter continues to do for the world what he did to the US.
It's just taking longer.
