NEW YORK - Israel's ambassador to the United Nations on Thursday called former President Jimmy Carter "a bigot" for meeting with the leader of the militant Hamas movement in Syria.

Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, "went to the region with soiled hands and came back with bloody hands after shaking the hand of Khaled Mashaal, the leader of Hamas," Ambassador Dan Gillerman told a luncheon briefing for reporters.

Jimmy Carter-The WORST President of the United States.

Jimmy Carter- has been a even bigger DISGRACE as a former President of the United States..

Bigot is one of the nicer terms I use for carter.

Calling the guy who's trying to negotiate a ceasefire a "bigot" isn't helping anything. I hope somebody over in Israel recognizes this partisan kook for what he is.

How is Carter helping anything? How is he not a partisan kook?
