Lebanon: Hezbollah refuses to meet former US president

Well, this is surely the high point of Jimmy the Dhimmi's life: Rejected by muslim thieves and murderers. Way to go Jim, now please crawl back into your cesspool and let the world get on with destroying the islamic jihad. BTW, unless Jimmy the dhimmi has a commission from the President, this is not an official visit but rather an illegal attempt to make policy.

Lebanon: Hezbollah refuses to meet former US president

Beirut, 10 Dec. (AKI) - The Lebanese Shia group Hezbollah has refused to meet former US President Jimmy Carter. Carter's spokesman said on Wednesday that the organisation which is now represented in parliament, had rejected a request for a meeting.

"I understand that some of the leaders of Hezbollah have said they were not going to meet with any president or former presidents of the United States," said spokesman Rick Jafculca.

Carter arrived in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, on Tuesday with an American delegation for an official visit.

He is also due to visit Syria where he will meet President Bashar al-Assad and Palestinian Hamas officials in exile in Damascus.

Hezbollah, led by radical cleric Hassan Nasrallah, is backed by Syria and Iran and is considered a terrorist organisation by Israel the US, and Canada and others.

Carter who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 brokered the historic Camp David peace accord signed by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin on in 1978.

He has retained an active interest in Middle East issues since he left office.
