I'm also quite gratified by how Mitt conducted his Israel trip, especially his willingness to speak words of truth rather than the usual tired, expedient, nonsensical rhetorical blah-blah. Question is whether he'll continue in that vein once elected. That's the real test.

A very impassioned speech that brought tears. My prayers are with Mitt Romney and my fervent hope is that more Jews will see the error of their ways. Will it be a perfect match? Not at all, but Mitt Romney for all his wealth is a people's politician. We have lost four years with a man who has been a travesty in his role as America's leader and now it is really time for "hope and change," Thank you Caroline for posting.

'I especially love the part about the Palestinians...that's right, he never mentioned them.'

He also didn't mention that he is for a Palestinian state which is codified in the Republican and democratic party platforms.
Oh,the vanity of Israel being so easily swayed and swooned by the words of any pre-election politician coming to visit them from the forked tongue Empire.
Where was this ghost all these years before (Gush Katif 2005) when we needed him then ?

How can I trust Romney about Jerusalem, when Both Bush and Obama said the same things before they were elected?

The alternative to Romney is Obummer, and we all know where he stands. Any aid he gives to Israel will come at a great price that he will exact. Obummer is no lover of Israel. At least Romney might have some feeling due to religion? But Romney did mention the Capital of Israel-Jerusalem, and a tidbit most unpleasing to arabs and the Left-the truth-that the cultures of Israel and the arabs are the difference in their success and their failure respectively. The arabs don't like the truth. They much rather enjoy playing when the game is fixed in their favor, and Obummer, Thighness, and the Left are only too happy to oblige.

After having listened to this speech and excerpts several times, now, I must say, it becomes more profound with each hearing. He gets it. Moreover, he says it without reservation.
Israel and the US are a "force for good in the world." He knows what Israel is up against, and he understands our common enemy that would destroy all we hold dear in Life
and all we have achieved. He values human dignity and accomplishment and gives us real hope- not that which is temporarily fabricated to get elected.The US is very fortunate there is a man of his character who wants to be President.
G-d Bless and protect him.

There are no perfect candidates and Mitt Romney is head and shoulders better for both America and Israel than the Socialist we have now.

Note Romney's menschlich, very manly qualities-- erect posture, deep resonant voice,ability to speak without notes fluently, modest, no show off stuff, plus his direct talk regarding Jerusalem as the capital, and Iran as the enemy. Believe it or not, as a citizen in Massachusetts, I have learned more about Romney's qualities watching this video from J'lem than reading about him or seeing his picture in the past; and altogether I am proud of him and hope indeed that he becomes President of the USA.

Many people think "if we could just get the right man for President then all our problems would be solved."
People who think that way fail to identify the problem.
The reason this world is in trouble is because laws are being broken.
The reason so many people are in trouble is because of sin.
What is sin? The Bible says "...sin is the transgression of the law"(1John3:4).
"Cry aloud and spare not - lift up your voice like a trumpet. Declare unto my people their transgression and to the house of Jacob their sin"(Isaiah 58:1).
People need to have the same attitude as King David of Israel who said,
"Oh how love I thy law - it is my meditation all day. Your commandments make me wiser than my unfriendly foes"...(Psalm 119:97).
No American President or European leader can solve Israel's problems.
Only by turning to God and keeping God's law can Israel be spared in World War III.
