So annoying your country's closest ally by suggesting that it is not entirely ready for the Olympics, even before your first official meeting, is not a good start. Nor is it terribly impressive to go on to imply that Palestinian Arabs are in some way culturally inferior, or to refuse to answer more than three press questions on the whole trip while your media people tell disgruntled hacks that they can "kiss my ass". From a presentational point of view, it was, as the critics said, a bit of a Romneyshambles. But Mitt Romney's seven-day tour of Britain, Israel and Poland, which ended this week, has served a useful purpose that the criticism has obscured. By his selection of venues, and some of the words he spoke in them, Mr Romney has made it clear that in foreign policy, as well as the domestic kind, he wants to do things differently from Barack Obama.
