Carter Bleeds for Poor Starving Hamas!
We see how weak Famine has made Them!
They had to struggle to make Armored Cars!
And waxed faint in making deadly Car-bombs!
Jimmy is sure the Hamas are Starving to Death!
And yet hasn’t been in Gaza since Arafat’s Death!
Yet they get enough energy to launch rockets to Kill!
Their suicide bombers find strength to maim and Kill!
It’s all a great mystery peacenik Carter fails to Expose!

In the second excerpt from Arutz Sheva, which follows the DEBKAfile excerpt, Jimmy Carter makes the following statement:
“It’s an atrocity, what is being perpetrated as punishment on the people in Gaza,” said Carter. “It is a crime… I think it is an abomination that this continues to go on.”

First Hamas offensive using two car-bombs, two armored cars is repulsed by Israeli troops
April 19,
2008, 6:23 PM (GMT+02:00)
Three blew up, one was captured. Eight soldiers were injured, two seriously, in the broad Hamas bomb-car, mortar offensive from Kerem Shalom at the southernmost tip of the Gaza-Israeli border to Kissufim in the north. At least four Palestinians were killed.
In the first attack of its kind from Gaza, Hamas used two explosives-packed jeeps and two armored vehicles. The jeeps detonated by suicide drivers broke through to the Israeli side of the Kerem Shalom goods crossing early Saturday, April 19. Terrorists jumped out of the first armored vehicle under cover of the explosion, mortar fire and heavy mist, and attacked the Israeli position guarding the terminal. This vehicle painted in IDF colors was captured and the assailants thrown back.
After the attack, southern front commander Maj.-Gen Galant praised the IDF for foiling a major Palestinian strategic attack on Israel intended to kill and abduct soldiers.
Israeli soldiers thwarted an attempt by a band of terrorists to cross into Israel, attack Kibbutz Kerem Shalom and kidnap Israeli soldiers and civilians.
The Israeli population in areas abutting the Gaza Strip was told to stay indoors under cover for fear of further terrorist incursions.
The second armored vehicle, rigged with explosives, headed for the Kissufim crossing further north. Israeli tank fire blew it up before it reached its target.
The Israel air force retaliated with a heavy bombardment over the Gaza Strip.
This was the first time terrorists managed to spirit any bomb vehicles to the Israel side of a border crossing.
Two days ago, dozens of Israeli trucks bringing food and essential supplies to the Kerem Shalom goods crossing for the Palestinian population came under fire and turned back. Then, too, Israeli troops thwarted an attempted incursion, one of several staged in the last two weeks by Hamas-led gunmen. Last week, three Israeli soldiers were killed and three injured in a Hamas attack in the Beeri-Alumim region, following the murder of two Israeli civilians employed at the Nahal Oz terminal through which Gaza receives its energy supplies.
Friday, 10 Palestinian missiles were fired from Gaza, five exploding in Sderot.
One started a fire near a school where children were playing outside, another hit a high-voltage line and darkened the town for several hours. Israeli civilian locations have been subjected to missile and mortar attack the whole week.
In Damascus, former US president Jimmy Carter met again with Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal Saturday morning after their four-hour conversation Friday night.
They were reported discussing a lull in Hamas attacks on Israel from Gaza and terms for the release of the Israeli soldier Gilead Shalit kidnapped by Hamas-led gunman nearly two years ago.

Jimmy Carter in Egypt: Gaza Arabs “Starved to Death” by Israel
15 Nissan 5768, 20 April 08 08:11
by Hana Levi Julian
(IsraelNN.com) Former US President Jimmy Carter says Palestinian Authority Arabs living in Gaza are being “starved to death” by Israel.
Carter made the claim speak ing with students at the American University
in Cairo on Thursday, saying that Gaza Arabs are receiving fewer calories per day than people in the poorest regions of Africa.
“It’s an atrocity, what is being perpetrated as punishment on the people in Gaza,” said Carter. “It is a crime… I think it is an abomination that this continues to go on.”
The former president has not actually visited Gaza; Israel declined to authorize his use of the Israel-Gaza crossings and there were no indications he requested an entry from Egypt.
Carter neglected to mention that the region’s crossings with the rest of Israel have been closed since the Islamist Hamas terrorist organization seized total control of the area and began launching constant attacks on Israeli civilians. He also didn’t mention that the crossings are opened daily for the delivery of humanitarian aid, including truckloads of food, medical and other supplies into Gaza.
On Thursday, while Carter was denigrating Israeli treatment of Gaza residents, Hamas terrorists infiltrated through the Kerem Shalom Crossing and attacked an IDF post while trucks were passing through the crossing with essentials for Gaza.
The terrorists attacked the same area in which IDF Cpl.
Gilad Shalit was kidnapped in June 2006. Two soldiers were murdered and another soldier was seriously injured during that attack as well.
Shalit’s condition and whereabouts are unknown; his parents have been hoping that Carter will be able to find out information about their son, if not convince his Hamas captors to free him altogether.
Despite the opposition of the American government, Carter was to meet Friday in Damascus with Hamas politburo chief Khaled Mashaal, who is the apparent power behind Shalit’s kidnappers.
Carter met Thursday in Cairo with two senior Hamas officials from Gaza, Mahmoud al-Zahar and Said Seyam. The Israeli government refused to allow the former US president
to meet in Gaza with the Hamas terrorists.
