Romney: Obama fears Israeli attack on Iran more than Iran nukes

In hawkish remarks that drew cheers from an audience of religious conservatives, Mitt Romney accused President Obama on Saturday of being more afraid that Israel might attack Iran than that Iran will develop a nuclear weapon.

The Republican presidential candidate, who frequently attacks the administration for failing to back Israel's government more aggressively, ratcheted up his criticism a notch. He responded with ridicule when asked what he would do, if elected, to strengthen U.S. relations with the Jewish state.

"I think, by and large, you can just look at the things the president has done and do the opposite," Romney said, to laughter and applause from members of the Faith and Freedom Coalition, an evangelical Christian political organization.

Probably because the average Jewish American voter today knows less about Judaism and Israel and spirituality than a Jewish Torah observant toddler. These morally rudderless American Jews are often successful in business, but their lacking in Torah knowledge means that they stand for everything that is anti-Torah: they are pro-abortion, anti-guns, anti self-defence, etc. As a result they end up not caring for Israel or become anti Israel. This means that voting for Obama comes naturally to them. The Jewish Scriptures mention this (anti Jewish Jews) at a time in the world such as we are in now.
