I’m not clicking on a Human Events link either, but I don’t need to.

How typical. Romney tried several times to imply that President Obama has thrown Israel under the bus, yet when POTUS pointed out that Romney only went to Israel to collect money and couldn’t be bothered to nod at the place that memorializes the horrific events that immediately preceded its creation*, then it’s a cheap shot.

*Yes, I know that the aliyas began a good 50 years before WWII and that the Balfour Declaration of 1917 attempted to establish a “national home for the Jewish people”, but it was the Holocaust that triggered massive migration, leading to armed conflict with the British and, eventually, the establishment of the modern state of Israel.
