Most morons like him operate in a vacuum of their own limited understanding. They understand the consequences of too much spending and literally nothing else.

What I am curious about is whether pro-Israel Glenn Beck, who frequently has Massie in his radio show, will call Massie out for this or just pretend the situation does not exist.

That is untrue. Israel, to their detriment, tries to protect Arab innocents in war.

Of course did you read his explanation?

There is no need to read his explanation; he is already infected with antisemitism. It is a spiritual disease.

I hate to tell you but BOTH sides in the Hamas/Israeli War are unapologetic baby killers.

More evidence that hardspunned is a antisemitic plant on FR. Who writes like this ?

So should be absolutely okay with what these Israeli supporting ads will say.

I, too, want to limit foreign aid, but it’s perfectly okay for people to be against that.

He should be supporting those who are saying something he finds abhorrent or hateful.

You betcha! Xi is chomping at the bit to step in to “help” any country from which we withdraw our support.

As I’ve said before if Massie had any balls he would go after AIPAC for being an unregistered foreign agent. But instead he just whines about them like a little girl.

“Why can’t Israel pay for their own defense?”

Why should they when they can get uncle sucker to pay for it?

That is so wrong, it actually sounds like propaganda spread on social media by Hamas supporters to cover for their brutal and purposeful killing of children.

Hamas purposely target children and kill them in the most brutal and horrific fashion, and actually they seem to enjoy doing so. They rape the women and girls they can get their hands on before killing them.

The Israelis/jews purposely try to reduce civilian casualties as much as they can. Hamas takes advantage of this by hiding in the middle of civilians and places like schools, hospitals, hotels, churches e.t.c.

Nice try equating Hamas with Israel. You should work for CNN or BBC.

“Massie is opposed to foreign aid. This is a perfectly respectable and conservative position”

I agree. At the beginning of the Republic, there was no thought that the country should be involved in every conflict in the world. But now the interventionists (both left and right) want us to be not only involved but to fund the conflict.

We’re broke. And then some. No more foreign welfare and global military spending.

You get lost on the way to a different forum? This forum does openly advertise itself as “pro-God, pro-life, pro-family” et al.

Thanks Karen, but WTF are you talking about?

Massie is my favorite legislator. He is consistent.

I belive the Jews are chosen by God. I believe the Israeli government is socialist/communist/totalitarian and has violated it’s citizens with gun control and by failing to protect it’s borders.

There were surveys in the US in 1940 and 80 odd percent (I think?) were still opposed to entering WW2 despite Hitler being a maniac it was seem as a European or British problem.

A bit misleading, the majority did support Aid to Britain, in the hope it would avoid the US having to go to war. But if you really pressed them, most probably did support the US going to war with Hitler, if it appeared that Britain was truly in peril.

And the fact is, with Japan's belligerence, we could not support a two-ocean Navy, we relied on the Royal Navy to guard the Atlantic, while we beefed up our Pacific capabilities. Had the Nazis neutralized the Royal Navy, we would have been in a world of hurt.

Shut up and sit in the.corner- blathering ass.

Continuously bleating “anti-semitism” loses its intended effect after the few thousand times you try it.

Isolationism should be the default.

For example, we should not have been in WWI.

But WWII, we really had no choice, because we were dealing with both Japan and Germany.

It’s a shame you weren’t around back in the 70s. You could have helped murder those guilty Irish Catholic children who were responsible for the horrific IRA terrorist attacks.

That’s a novel take around here. I dont think I’ve heard that position articulated much!

But I do agree with you.

I thought now they’re handing out weapons to citizens?

Hes a good example of why libertarianism never catches on.
