The Republican candidate governor Mitt Romney sees the US administration's response to the attack of 11 September as evidience of the United States' weakness in adversity failing to respond to respond to a terrorist attack and trying to pretend that it was a spontaneous demonstration. Moreover Governor Romney argues the US policy overall in the Middle East led by President Obama has been a failure.He sees islamic militants and islamists in general as a threat.hs advsorqustins whatresults the Arab Spring has really yielded.
President Obama emphasises that Libyans at Benghazi tried to defendAmbassador Stevens and carried his body to the hospital .The citizens of Benghazi then demonstrated against the militias whowere accusedof the attack against the attack against the US consulate and forced them out of Benghazi. A grand hand in to the authorities of weaponsby civilians followed.
Two completely visions as one would expect from the Republican and Democratic parties. Governnor Romney would use the $1.5 billion US aid for Egypt to attain leverage so that US interests were served, President Obama would not perhaps recognising that relations with Egypt will never be the same again.Mr Romney's advisor even
questions whether the Arab Spring has really let to democratic change in the region.
Governor Romney repesents confrontation and a hard line although he denies he is acting in the discredited tradition of President Bush, President Obama takes a more conciliatory approach still trying to reach out to the islamic world despite the conflicts in Afghanistan and Pakistan and the heritage of Iraq which now threatens Mali and the Sahel.

Libya and the administration's failures over security could still prove a major factor in the US presidential election in three weeks time.
