The Economist chimes in on Romney’s European trip:

Brutal! But there’s more:

His campaign so far has been lacklustre, and his first trip abroad has been a bit of a horn-honking, floppy-shoed clown show.

Comparing the income of the average Israeli to that of the average Palestinian, as though their prospects at birth had been equivalent and their fortunes today are largely the result of their own efforts and their “culture”, is gratuitously insulting and wreaks damage to American diplomacy.
