Romney was bashing and lots of people agreed with him and joined in the bashing of Palestine Bjorn Against Feb 2013 #28

But I'm asking what was unfair or demonizing from Romney? Criticism is something else.... shira Feb 2013 #29

Saying Palestinians don't want peace is unfair, in other words the entire premise of what he said Bjorn Against Feb 2013 #31

Should he have said "most" Palestinians? Check this out.... shira Feb 2013 #33

There are plenty of Israelis who reject a two state solution as well Bjorn Against Feb 2013 #34
