Former President Jimmy Carter is reportedly preparing an unprecedented meeting with the leader of Hamas, an organization that the U.S. government considers one of the leading terrorist threats in the world.

The Arabic-language newspaper Al-Hayat reported Tuesday that Carter was planning a trip to Syria for mid-April, during which he would meet with Khaled Meshal, the exiled head of the Palestinian terror group Hamas, on April 18.

... Meshal, who lives in Syria to avoid being arrested by the Israeli government, leads Hamas from his seat in Damascus, where he is a guest of Bashar Assad regime.

The State Department has designated Hamas a "foreign terrorist organization," and some groups hold Meshal personally responsible for ordering the kidnapping of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack once said of the prospect of meeting with Meshal, "That's not something that we could possibly conceive of."

Some Carter critics called the latest reports typical of the ex-president.

• CARTER IS VIOLATING THE LOGAN ACT AND SHOULD BE ARRESTED FOR THAT AND TREASON.
• WIKI:
  

  The Logan Act is a United States federal law that forbids unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments. It was passed in 1799 and last amended in 1994. Violation of the Logan Act is a felony, punishable under federal law with imprisonment of up to three years.

  The text of the Act is broad and is addressed at any attempt of a US citizen to conduct foreign relations without authority.

• IF BUSH HAD BALLS HE MAKE SURE MUKASEY INDICTED CARTER.

• BUT BUSH WON'T; HE'S A WIMP; IN FACT, DUBYA STANDS FOR WIMP.
