Tell us: Should Carter meet with Hamas leader?

By Margo Rutledge Kissell | Wednesday, April 16, 2008, 09:46 AM

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter wants to meet Friday with Hamas supreme leader Khaled Mashaal — a move that has drawn criticism from the United States and Israel, who consider Hamas a terror group.

Carter, who brokered the historic 1979 peace accord between Israel and Egypt, believes isolating Hamas is counterproductive, according to an Associated Press article.

Some top leaders in Israel are boycotting Carter during his Middle East visit, in part because of his planned meeting with Mashaal.

What do YOU think: Should Carter be free to meet with the Hamas leader or do you think he is meddling where he doesn’t belong?
