The average American voter is more interested in the ailing economy, the immigration policy and the issue of abortion than in foreign policy.

However, the final debate on Monday between Republican candidate Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama, who are tied at 47% support each among likely voters with just over two weeks to go before the US presidential election, will focus, among other things, on the Iranian nuclear crisis, the deadly attack on the US consulate in Benghazi.



The Republicans have also accused Obama of failing to realize immediately that the terror attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya was premeditated and not a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Islam film that sparked Muslim riots worldwide.


Obama insisted that he had called the assault an act of terror, but the CIA issued a report confirming that four days after the attack, he still believed it was spontaneous.


A Republican congressmen recently published memos sent by Ambassador Chris Stevens, who was killed in the attack, in which he asked the State Department to increase security around American diplomats in Libya.


Obama, on his part, will most likely focus on his decision to withdraw American troops from Iraq and set a timetable for a pullout from Afghanistan (set for 2014). He will also stress the fight against global terror, including the killing of Osama bin Laden and other top al-Qaeda terrorists in Afghanistan in Yemen.


Romney, on the other hand, may have to answer questions about his failed trip to Europe and Israel last July. The former Massachusetts governor managed to insult the British when he said London was not prepared to host the Olympic Games. He also infuriated the Palestinians when he told Jewish donors that their culture is part of what has allowed them to be more economically successful than the Palestinians.
