They hate us because we are not radical muslims like them and will not stop until there is a global caliphate. Perhaps you think Paul's foreign policy is in line with all the founders, but in reality Paul would have been starkly opposed to Jefferson and Adam's solution to the islamic problem.

They hate everybody who isn't Muslim, but they don't attack everybody. Do you believe our interventions abroad have had no influence on why they attack us? I think Paul would have been fine with the way the Barbary Pirates were handled, since it was defensive in nature. They declared war on us, they captured and enslaved our citizens, and they were extorting money from us to pay for safe passage (appeasement). Jefferson formed the navy as a defense, and once they declared war on us, the feces of course hit the oscillator.

Oh really? I suppose you think our "interventions abroad" caused them to attack us at the very founding of our country. Make all the excuses you want, blame america first all you want, your crap doesn't stand the light of history.
