Turnabout: Hamas reports finding bombs along convoy travel path

Terror organization Hamas is claiming it found a couple of bombs along the road a convoy carrying former President Jimmy Carter was to use.

Hamas has discovered two roadside bombs planted near a crossing between Israel and Gaza on a path Former President Jimmy Carter’s convoy took to meet with the group’s leaders, a Palestinian source tells FOX News.

  • According to the source, the aim of the bombs was to hit Carter’s vehicle as he exited Gaza. There is some suspicion that Hamas extremists identified with Al Qaeda may be behind the attempt.

  • I’m sure. Of course, given Hamas’ expertise and familiarity with such matters, I’m a little suspicious that they were able to find the bombs because they planted them in the first place.
