That the despicable jews would allow him to be assassinated because of
inclusion
of Arabs in peace talks shows you the Real Evidence of who
is really the cause of all the worlds problems.
I say it is time to profile ALL of the dual pass****t holders in the U.S.
and send them all packing
to Israel BEFORE they flee there AFTER committing their crimes.
I would laugh if the patriots in the U.S. would start assassinating these
dual pass****t citizens!!!!!

Israel snubs Carter, declines security help

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel's secret service has declined to assist U.S.
agents guarding former U.S. President Jimmy Carter during a visit in which
Israeli leaders have shunned him, U.S. sources close to the matter said on
Monday.
Carter angered the Israeli government with plans to meet Hamas's top
leader, Khaled Meshaal, in Syria, and for describing Israeli policy in the
occupied Palestinian territories as "a system of apartheid" in a 2006
book.
The Nobel Peace Prize winner, who brokered Israel's first peace treaty
with
an Arab neighbor, Egypt, signed in 1979, met Israel's largely ceremonial
president, ****mon Peres, on Sunday but was shunned by the political
leader****p, including Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.
Israel has also rejected Carter's request to meet jailed Palestinian
uprising
leader Marwan Barghouthi, who is seen as a possible successor to President
Mahmoud Abbas, a spokesman for Carter said.
Barghouthi was convicted in 2004 of murder by an Israeli court over the
killing of four Israelis and a Greek Orthodox monk in attacks by
Palestinian
militants. He is serving five life sentences.
American sources close to the matter said the ****n Bet security service,
which helps protect visiting dignitaries and is overseen by Olmert's
office,
declined to meet the head of Carter's Secret Service security detail or
provide his team with assistance as is customary during such visits.
"They're not getting sup****t from local security," an American source
said.
"UNPRECEDENTED" BREACH
Another source described the snub as an "unprecedented" breach between
the Israeli ****n Bet and the U.S. Secret Service, which protects all
current
and former U.S. presidents, as well as Israeli leaders when they visit the
United States.
Carter included the southern Israeli town of Sd***** on his itinerary. The
area
is often hit by rockets from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip and one of the
sources described the lack of ****n Bet assistance there as particularly
"problematic".
Israeli police have provided some technical assistance to Carter's
delegation.
Olmert's office had no immediate comment.
The Bush administration and close U.S. ally Israel oppose Carter's planned
meeting with Meshaal, whose Islamist group won Palestinian parliamentary
elections in 2006 but was boycotted by the West for refusing to renounce
violence and recognize Israel.
Israel and the United States have sought to isolate Hamas, which seized
control of the Gaza Strip in June from more secular Fatah forces loyal to
Abbas. Abbas holds sway in the occupied West Bank and has launched
U.S.-backed peace talks with Olmert.
Hamas leaders have offered a long-term truce with Israel in return for a
viable Palestinian state in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip, but
the group's 1988 founding charter calls for the destruction of the Jewish
state.
Ahead of his visit, Carter defended talks with Hamas.
"I think there's no doubt in anyone's mind that, if Israel is ever going
to find
peace with justice concerning the relation****p with their next-door
neighbors,
the Palestinians, that Hamas will have to be included in the process,"
Carter
told U.S. television network ABC News's "This Week".
