Ron Paul on the airline plot : “They’re terrorists because we’re occupiers!”
Hot Air ^ | December 28, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Posted on 12/29/2009 9:24:17 PM PST by RobinMasters

I’ve already written about how his isolationist garbage leads inexorably to nonsense like this, so let me just add two points. First, and most obviously, there is no U.S. occupation of Yemen or Nigeria. The only way the airline plot is a reaction to U.S. “occupation” is if you accept the jihadist premise that there are no Arab/Muslim nation-states but rather only one Islamic caliphate waiting to be born. Only in that way does the U.S. occupation of Iraq warrant a reprisal from, say, a Pakistani or Yemeni. And yet, needless to say, if Britain was attacked tomorrow and Obama pledged U.S. forces to assist in the reprisal, Paul would be the first guy to scream that we should scrupulously observe national boundaries and not go fighting another country’s battles for it.

“I tend to like Paul, but this is an area where he is dead wrong. Especially in this instance.”

That’s like saying Hitler had his good points, and did a great job at making the railroads run on time.

It's really amazing about Dr. Paul... For someone I really agree with on many things - the few things we disagree on are total deal killers...

Epic Disappointment.

Yes, and George Bush and the Mossad flew the airplanes into the WTCs. Charlie Sheen told me.

The socialist govt. of Spain was installed as a result of jihadi violence before an election. They are welcoming Muzzies into the country in large numbers. The ancestors of the Spaniards, the French, and other Euro countries who fought for centuries to rid themselves of this scourge must be spinning in their graves.

The socialists and the muzzies have a long history. Before oil money, they were looked at as animals, now, the communists see them as RICH animals and use them to do their dirty work. Remember the chap that shot John Paul II?

Just think, Ron Paul is the guy who called the Reagan Presidency a “failure”.

Once an idiot, always an idiot!

Now I know why Sarah Palin should not associate with Ron Paul.
