McCain Slams Hussein On Hamas
Tweet
Sen. John McCain condemned former President Jimmy Carter’s decision to meet with Hamas and used it to criticize Sen. Barack Obama for not taking a stand on Carter’s foray into the Middle East.
“It is a grave and dangerous mistake for an American leader to meet with a terrorist organization like Hamas,” McCain said. “Engaged in a campaign that deliberately targets innocent Israeli civilians, Hamas is dedicated to the destruction of Israel. President Carter is wrong to meet with Hamas, a terrorist group that has also killed innocent Americans.”
“The very idea that a former President of the United States and Commander-in-Chief would meet with a terrorist organization demands a clear stance from all presidential candidates,” he said. “Refusing to take a stand, as Senator Obama has done, is not the strong leadership we need today. If Senator Obama is not decisive enough to condemn former President Carter, how can he be strong enough to deal with the threat they pose to America and to our allies?”
