James Carter IV - Here's what Mitt said about foreign policy on the 47 percent video

I really like President Carter's grandson.

On peace between Israel and Palestine:

"All right, we have a potentially volatile situation but we sort of live with it, and we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it."

On Iran’s Nuclear Program:

"If I were Iran… I’d say let’s get a little fissile material to Hezbollah, have them carry it to Chicago or some other place, and then if anything goes wrong, or America starts acting up, we’ll just say, “Guess what? Unless you stand down, why, we’re going to let off a dirty bomb.”

He said that he would EXPLOIT any little problem that may come up before the election in November.

Considering that Bush started both the Iraq War and the Afghanistan War, I think that the odds of ANY little problem in foreign affairs was leaning in Romney's favor.

But . . President Obama killed Osama bin Laden.
And that trumps any crap that Romney might raise from here on in.
