After meeting with leaders of the anti-Semitic Hamas terrorist organization in Cairo Jimmy Carter traveled to Syria today to meet with the leader of Hamas.
The AP reported:

Jimmy Carter has arrived in Syria where he is due to meet the political leader of the militant Palestinian Hamas group.

The former U.S. president’s visit comes a day after he met several Hamas leaders in Egypt and said he had asked them to stop rocket attacks into Israel.

Carter also is scheduled to meet Friday with Syrian President Bashar Assad before holding talks with Hamas’ exiled political chief Khaled Mashaal. He also plans to meet with Syrian businessmen.

Democrats are starting to worry that Carter’s pro-terrorist actions will hurt the party. Four House Democrats asked Carter not to meet with Hamas. He ignored them, too.

Earlier this week the Assad Regime sentenced opposition activist Kamal Labwani 12 years for contacts with Washington.
It would be decent of Jimmy to bring this man’s situation up with Assad when they meet… But, don’t hold your breath.
Here’s Assad’s fax number by the way.
