Report: Biden attacks Romney's readiness for war with Iran
[Jerusalem Post] US Vice President  Joe Foreign Policy Whiz KidBiden The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body... on Sunday attacked Republican presidential candidate Willard MittRomney ...former governor of Massachussetts, currently the Publican nominee for president. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney has a record as a successful businessman, heading Bain Capital, and he rescued the 2002 Winter Olympics from the midst of bribery and mismanagement scandals. More to the point, he isn't President B.O... for being "ready to go to war" in Syria and Iran, NBC News reported. Biden's comments came amid ongoing speculation that the Obama government and the Netanyahu government were not in sync on the Iranian nuclear program. "Listen to what he (Romney) says about foreign policy. You caught some of it in his speech [at the Republican National Convention,]" NBC quoted Biden as saying in a sweeping condemnation of Romney's foreign policy strategy. "He said it was a mistake to end the war in Iraq and bring all of our warriors home. He said it was a mistake to set an end date for our warriors in Afghanistan and bring them home. He implies by the speech that he's ready to go to war in Syria and Iran. He wants to move from cooperation to confrontation with Putin's Russia." Posted by: Fred 2012-09-03 |
