Unsurprisingly, Anti-Semites do hate Ron Paul for his support of Israel.
“Republican Jewish Coalition have issued a strong statement criticizing Ron Paul, the Texas congressman and newly announced contender for the GOP presidential nomination. Paul is scored for espousing a dangerous isolationist vision for the U.S. and our role in the world and for having been a virulent and harsh critic of Israel during his tenure in Congress. “
The Republican Jewish Coalition statement itemizes four specific statements and actions by Paul to back up its claim of hostility to Israel:
He likened Israels defensive blockade of Hamas-ruled Gaza to a concentration camp (Imus in the Morning interview, 6/3/2010);
proposed an amendment to unilaterally cancel U.S. assistance to Israel (Politico, 2/16/11);
was one of just 8 House members to vote against sanctions on Iran (Govtrack.us rollcall report, 6/24/2010));
and he published newsletters that included rants against the Israeli lobby (CNN interview, 1/8/2008). The newsletters appeared in the 1990s between stints in Congress.
