• In Mitt Romney's opinion amidst the many critical challenges that America faces today, the
threat of violent and radical Jihad and the threat of nuclear proliferation stand at the top.
• Romney cites the former President Jimmy Carter's view with regard to bringing peace to the
Holy Land and thinks the opposite. According to him, it is only helping to prevent terror and
bloodshed and violence.
• Romney quotes. "State taxpayers should not be providing special treatment to an individual
who supports violent jihad and the destruction of Israel."
• Romney fears that radical Islam has one goal; to replace all Islamic states in the world
under one caliphate and convert the non-believers of Islam forcibly, if necessary, to Islam. He says
that this plan is more irrational than the Nazi Germany policies of the 1930s and Stalin?s Cold War
or the 1940s.
• Mitt Romney has committed that he would defeat the jihadists all around the world. Most of
his speeches however focus on restricting Iran rather than making decisions to resolve the tension
between Israel and Palestine.
• Romney requested the Arab states to stop providing weapons and financial support to
Hezbollah and Hamas and instead to put pressure on the Palestinians to "drop terrorism and recognize
Israel's right to exist."
• Mitt Romney strongly supports the security wall that divides Israel from the West Bank.
