Israel Saves Jimmuh Carter's Butt

Given the way Jimmuh Carter has denounced Israel over the years it would have been understandable if they'd just looked the other way, but they didn't:

Hamas reportedly foiled an attempt by Palestinian terrorists to kill former US president Jimmy Carter during his visit to the Gaza Strip on Tuesday.

Israeli security sources said they had learned of plans to target Carter and had passed on the information to his security detail in "real time."

According to Palestinian sources, terrorists linked to al-Qaida hid a number of bombs along a road Carter's convoy was scheduled to travel on while in the Strip.

Following Carter's entry to Gaza, five men, some wearing Hamas police uniforms, removed three large black disks and some wire from a sand dune next to a road Carter had used. They then reportedly destroyed the improvised bombs.

Well, Hamas certainly knows a thing or two about bombs. My guess is they'll be reassembly them for later use.
