ROMNEY MAKES THE ISRAELI RIGHT PROUD

But the Jerusalem Post clearly isn't if they're going to say "settlers" are the ones pleased in the headline:

US Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney found himself in the heat of a decades-old political debate in Israel Wednesday after he was taped criticizing a proposed two-state solution and mocking the Palestinian interest in achieving peace with the Jewish state.

Romney’s comments at a Boca Raton fund-raiser about peace being “almost unthinkable to accomplish” were praised by the Israeli Right and residents of Judea and Samaria, and slammed by the Left. [...]

Council of Jewish Communities in Judea and Samaria chairman Dani Dayan said Romney’s viewpoint had become more common in recent years among international figures, who have started admitting publicly and not just privately that they do not believe there will be a two-state solution and are seeking other alternatives.

“He described the reality that anyone with eyes can see,” Dayan said. “More and more people around the world realize it. After 20 years of the Oslo diplomatic process, anyone who thinks two states is still possible doesn’t know what he is talking about.”

Spot on. It could also include the Post if their headline suggested something, and even Peace Now, who hated what Romney said too. But there are politicians and other people around the globe who understand this more than ever now, and all the trouble Islam is causing everywhere is another reason why people can figure this out now.
