I try to ignore Ron Paul and his spawn as much as humanly possible but sometimes the doddering old fraud just goes too far. As a recap, Muslim terrorists, or at least everyone in the world thinks they are Muslim terrorists except the Obama administration, stormed the offices of a Parisian magazine that happens to poke fun at Islam and its Mohammed. People were killed. What lesson does Ron Paul draw from this? The French had it coming:
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
“But in the context of things, France has been a target for many, many years, because they’ve been involved in foreign affairs in Libya, and they really prodded us along in — recently in Libya, but they’ve been involved in Algeria, so they’ve had attacks like this, you know, not infrequently. So, it does involve, you know, their foreign policy as well. When people do this, you know, the rejection of the violence has to be made, and with that I agree.”
“I put blame on bad policy that we don’t fully understand, and we don’t understand what they’re doing because the people who are objecting to the foreign policy that we pursue, they do it from a different perspective,” Paul added. “They see us as attacking them, and killing innocent people, so yes, they, they have — this doesn’t justify, so don’t put those words in my mouth — it doesn’t justify, but it explains it.”
Paul said it was the West’s overall foreign policy which “invites retaliation.”
By the most charitable standard this is utterly deranged thinking… actually it’s less than thinking it is more akin to what a sunflower does when the flower follows the path of the sun: stimulus-response.
The attack was carried out for the same reason that Dutch filmmaker Theo Van Gogh was killed: it criticized Islam. There was no connection here with French foreign policy, rather it was caused by French domestic policy — a policy Obama seems intent in foisting upon the United States — of unchecked immigration and an inability to assimilate a large and disloyal foreign minority.
The only “bad policy” to blame here was France’s domestic kowtowing to violent extremists.
This man is an idiot. In a gentler time we’d be paying twopence to watch him eat bugs and fingerpaint with his own feces in Bedlam.
He is an idiot. They had it coming not because of what they said but because they did not have guns, like lambs to the slaughter. Anything said would make them upset, we don’t know.
Have to disagree. I too think the French had it coming for putting up with Islamists in their country. The entire western world needs to ban Islam inside their borders. It is going to take much bloodshed to wake them up to the fact that Western Democracy and Freedom is completely incompatible with Islam.
My point exactly. Over the last few years, I have become completely intolerant of the Islamic religion. It ought not have any protection under the umbrella of Religious Freedom. The founders never contemplated a pedophilic death cult as a "Religion".
We can put up with Buddha, Shinto, Sikh, Hindu, and Aboriginese Witch doctors, but we cannot tolerate Islam.
I get who you mean but I don’t recognize the guy on the left. Who is he? Some unknown talent?
Oops, not the guy on the left...the guy that’s second from the right!
“If he can’t see that islam IS the obcenity he’s hopeless.”

The Pauls have a history of giving validity to tyrants, thugs and murderers.
Pete Best?
That must be the one! :)
Nobody has this sort of thing coming, unless they are a terrorist group intent on killing others.
These people had every right to express their opinion.
Ron Paul should STFU.
I agree they should have seen it coming. Mostly because of their cowardly PC policies of domestic appeasement and disarmament. A little from their lax foreign policy, certainly not because it is too firm.
So he gets it 33% correct.
F.
The senile old coot should have shut up long ago....Unfortunately he thrives on folks like Alex Jones and his radio show.....idiots both
Thank goodness no one has told him about David Icke.
Another idiot who is oooohhhh sooooo dramatic.....
