Erm, I haven't seen this at all. In fact, most of the people I know who are most critical of Israel are also critical of Obama's foreign policy (though most begrudgingly voted for him anyways, because, y'know, Romney).


> though most begrudgingly voted for him anyways

Is there anyone in Israel running for office on the platform of "let's not assassinate terrorists"? Are these people under the illusion that they would vote for such a person, or abstain from voting if no such candidate presented themselves?

Once you vote for an assassin in your country, you lose the moral authority to denounce another country's assassinations. Romney or not.


So they wouldn't truly be critical of him then.
