Mitt Romney meets Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (video at link)
The Telegraph ^ | 29 July 2012 | Staff

US Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agree Israel's greatest danger comes from Iran.

The Republican presidential candidate's trip to the region is part of a three-nation foreign tour that has already taken in a somewhat unsuccessful stint in the UK and will finish in Poland, as the Romney campaign team hope to boost their man's foreign policy credentials.

Meeting in Mr Netanyahu's office, the Israeli Prime Minister spoke to Mr Romney in front of assembled journalists and photographers.

"I have to say that I heard some of your remarks and you said that the greatest danger facing Israel is the Ayatollah regime possessing nuclear weapons capabilities," the lsraeli leader said.

"Mitt, I couldn't agree with you more. And I think it's important to do everything in our power to prevent the Ayatollah from possessing that capability."

I’m glad they’re calling out the Ayatollah now.

Romney and Netanyahu have a decades long friendship, I am encouraged by that.

Bibi and Mitt could have a private conversation regarding the future of Israel and both be on the same page, unlike with a certain Kenyan.
