Governor Romney's Statement On The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Is Racist And Un-Presidential

These are problems-these are very hard to solve, all right? And I look at the Palestinians not wanting to see peace anyway, for political purposes, committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel, and these thorny issues, and I say, 'There's just no way.' -- Gov. Mitt Romney


No one who believes in the power of people to make a better future says something like this. No one who believes in "the better angels of our nature" can conceive of anything like it.

Palestinian parents do not want to see their children killed.

Israeli parents do not want to see their children killed.

....................

Anyone who prefers punting to engagement on this conflict is not fit to be president.
