Your Tax Dollars to Fund Hamas

May 15, 2006 2:40AM PDT

Friends, breaking news this week that you need to know about.

Jimmy Carter has helped the terrorist group Hamas to win another battle.

And YOU are the losers.

Think I'm making this up? I only wish I were.

The Associated Press is reporting that the U.S. has bowed to pressure and will provide "humanitarian aid" to the Palestinian government which is now ruled by the terrorist group, Hamas. [ You can read the story for yourself here: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/05/10/ap/world/mainD8HGJ588E.shtml ]

This comes after Jimmy Carter butted his nose again into international affairs and undermined U.S. foreign policy. We wrote to you earlier about Carter's call for the U.S. to provide funding to the Hamas-backed Palestinian government. [ Here's that link again in case you missed it: http://www.cartercenter.org/viewdoc.asp?docID=2337&submenu=news ]

So now OUR TAX DOLLARS are now going to be sent to the Palestinians under the rule of one of the most bloody anti-Western terrorist groups in the world. It was bad enough when Jimmy Carter was helping the corrupt United Nations secure funding - some of which later went to terrorist organizations in the Palestinian region - but now the U.S. will be handing over more money straight from the pockets of U.S. taxpayers.

Aren't you sick of feeling like the United States keeps caving in to those who wish us harm? Don't you wish that we could turn around the debate and condemn people like Jimmy Carter who keep leading the charge for America's enemies?
