Romney blames Obama of sowing "chaos" in the Middle East

The Republican candidate for the White House, Mitt Romney on Saturday strengthened its foreign policy attacks on President Barack Obama, whom he blamed for his "inaction and denial" to sow chaos in the Middle East. The Republican candidate criticized Obama for saying that the unrest and violence in the region were "bumps in the road" and added that such "casual event evaluations reveal that the president does not really understand the gravity of the challenges we face in the Middle East ". In his weekly podcast, 38 days before Americans vote on November 6, Romney said Obama's victory in 2008 was not based on his record of achievements, but in its arguments that lead a more humble greater respect abroad and stimulate the U.S. economy and morale. "Four years later, each of these arguments has proved wrong," Romney said, citing the violent riots in the Middle East and led to the deaths of four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador in Libya. Obama's theory, that "soften the American leadership would calm the hatred against us and we would gain acceptance not only failed, but has produced even more chaos," said Romney. "The foreign policy of President Obama is that of passivity and denial ... And that places the United States and our friends and allies at the mercy of what happens and who wish us ill." The podcast of this week marks a return of the Republican campaign attacks based on conflict management by the Obama administration, a day after Romney said it was "premature" to judge Obama's handling of events in Libya. The comments on Friday, in which the former governor of Massachusetts said he expected the results of an ongoing investigation into the assault on the consulate in Benghazi, which resulted in the deaths of the four Americans, represent a change in the tone of Romney. Earlier this month, the Republican candidate in a statement strongly condemned U.S. diplomats in Cairo at the time of the attacks occurred in Egypt embassy and consulate in Benghazi. The statement, in which he accused the Obama administration of sympathizing with extremists, took place before Romney knew that Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans had died, so the Republican candidate was criticized for a clumsy response to the crisis . On Saturday, Romney said Obama "continues to show he does not understand the scale of what is happening." "We're seeing a confused response, slow and inconsistent terrorist attack in Libya, a refusal to be candid with the American people about what happened and a total failure to explain the growing terrorist threat we face in the region," said Romney. The U.S. government has been criticized by the opposition Republican versions have changed on the attack of September 11 against its consulate in Benghazi (Libya, this) that killed the U.S. ambassador to the country, before admitting that was a "terrorist act" involving the Al Qaida. This event was followed for two weeks by violence in the Arab-Muslim countries-including those generated by the release of a film that denigrated Islam, which have claimed more than 50 victims. The U.S. foreign policy is one of the hottest spots of the campaign, four days before the first presidential debate, on Oct. 3.
