Great Job, Jimmy!

Jimmy Carter's buddies in Hamas share the love, courtesy of Mahmoud Zahar:

[We] “will continue to persecute the Zionists wherever they are, after we prove that the Zionist army can be defeated — contrary to what was believed in the past, that it is impossible to beat the Zionists.”

Speaking in the Gaza Strip, he went on to affirm Palestinian right of return, claiming that the “right of return of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians is closer than ever.”

“After we defeat the Zionists we will persecute them . . . we will persecute them to eternity, and the sun of the freedom and independence of the Palestinians will burn all of the Zionists,” he continued.

This is the same terrorists about which Carter lectured us:

I proposed a series of questions to Hamas, one of the key ones was 'Would you accept any peace agreement as negotiated by Mahmoud Abbas (the Palestinian Authority leader) and Prime Minister (Ehud) Ohlmert (of Israel) if it's submitted to the Palestinian people in a referendum or either through a new government that would be elected.

"We wrote out this question so there would be absolutely no question about it and they said 'Yes.' They would accept it, even if they opposed some provisions in the peace agreement.

But apparently not if they have already decided to oppose all of them.
