Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney places a message written on paper in the ancient stones of the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City on July 29, during the annual Ninth of Av fasting and memorial day, commemorating the destruction of ancient temples in Jerusalem. Romney is meeting Israeli leaders as he seeks to burnish his foreign policy credentials and portray himself as a better friend to Israel than President Barack Obama.
