Is Ron Paul HIGH??? This is from The Onion right? sarcasm on.

His whole career reads like satire, if you've followed it. Which is why some of us have a hard time believing RP has supporters on this forum. Still.

Preemptive it is not, but the Israeli response is vastly disproportionate. Let us hope the ground assault will better discriminate between civilians and militants, than the aerial bombardment has been.

Paul is correct that the US will be blamed.

Yeah but they are only minor little rockets. Not like those big evil ones those Jews have.

"I wonder how Ron Paul the lunatic would like it if his neighbors launched missles at his house day in, day out."

I'm sure his supporters here on FR, would tell you that Ron Paul would use the "Letter of Marque" against his foes. Yes, this useless 18th Century antiquated writ is what replaces testicles for the Paulhroids.

“Paul is correct that the US will be blamed.”

That’s a given! Especially with clowns like Paul getting out there to make sure!

This is a perfect example of why I could not ever take him seriously as a POTUS candidate, and have disdain for the Reps who do.

Actually it is no disproportionate enough. The Good people of Israel have been very reserved dealing with these animals.

Good, that is the point of war, disproportionate response to kill as much of the enemy and destroy as much of his property as possible for a fast victory.

Disproportionate leads to victory.
Proportionate leads to an ongoing stalemate.

Only losers whine about disproportionate response. The reason this has gone on so long as that Israel has kowtowed to world demands to only respond 'proportionately'.

And the US could not fight with another country, even if the other country attacked, if the other country was not militarily equal.

Makes me loathe RP. And to think I was considering voting for him a year ago or more (shame).

Well, to play devil's advocate, he did call for reducing our military down to 'a few submarines', thus, he would make us equal militarily to much weaker countries.

I stopped listening to him after he said 9/11 was our fault. Now he's bordering on Dennis Kukookish territory.

Ron Paul is more moderate than his supporters. Many of them despise Israel and Jews in general. Many say Jews control America and Wall St etc etc etc

Ron Paul makes some good sense on the economy and I wholeheatedly supported his stance on all this bailout crap we're now having to eat.

But I do not and cannot support him on this or any of his foreign policy statements.

"Palestinian missiles are so minor compared to the fire power of Israel, who has nuclear weapons."

What an idiotic statement. The latest Qassam 3 rockets can hold 10KG of high explosives. This is only minor if it hits someone else's house.

Imagine homemade steel explosive rockets raining down on Washington DC suburbs or Boston or NYC. Imagine around 3,600 of them so far.

How long do you think it would take for us to kick some ass?

"Preemptive it is not, but the Israeli response is vastly disproportionate."

Oh, so what you are saying is 'the Jews" should lob hundreds of unguided, "land where they may" missles of simular design right back at them, right?

Imagine the outcry if they did that. Actually it would probably be fare more effective and kill more terrorists, they ones that walk around the streets in large crowds waving guns and shouting "death to the Isreal"- so called "civillians".

To the average "palestinan"(no such thing), the UN, and every other Palestinian sympathizer, there is no such thing as a "civillian Jew". They are all 'legitamate" targets in their and Hamas eyes, from baby to old man.
