Though Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly denies having any preference as to who wins the upcoming U.S. presidential election, it's clear he is rooting for Republican Mitt Romney. The two see eye to eye on the Middle East, and Romney in the White House would make life easier for Netanyahu, assuming he is reelected next year.

Wealthy donors give money to politicians who they believe share their ideology and so they would like to see them in government so they donate money thats how the system works everywhere. The people who give to Romney also like Bibi's ideology and so they are also giving to him, its not illegal. Bibi of course has to say he doesn't support anybody in the US thats simple diplomacy but everybody knows full well Bibi supports Romney both because Obama has been terrible for Israel and Bibi doesn't want another 4 years of him and also he is a personal friend of Romney. Bibi might not be handling the diplomatic side of things to well because he has been to openly pro Romney but he is not committing a crime and he should not be condemned for supporting Romney.

10 0 0Romney would be a militaristic US president
- By GeneG USA
- 30 Sep 2012
- 02:56PM
Republicans cater to the military and in that respect a President Romney would not be a wimp. Fortunately, Obama is anti war. For sure the world does not need wars except for population control (I am being cynical) and the US does not need Romney or his ilk; nor does Israel need a Netanyahu unless all his talk is bullturds. Fortunately the polls show Obama moving ahead of Romney. The debates to come will be crucial and for sure Obama will take Romney apart. With Obama's reelection the increasingly tough sanctions on Iran will do the job and if they don't there is always an air strike on the oil fields to finish Iran off economically.

I'm an American Jew who finds Romney an appalling person with no ideology; His opinion is based on getting votes. President Obama is a man of high moral character who has led the USA with dignity and honesty. He is not Netanyahu's puppet.

01 0 0Cause for Concern
- By Steven Grumman
- 30 Sep 2012
- 03:46AM
The fact that Romney and Netanyahu share a number of donors should be a major concern to American voters. Donors tend to expect something for their money - and in this case it would probably be Romney's adherence to a stricter pro-Netanyahu agenda. That's not acceptable.
