Not to mention that in his statement, he figured that a 2 stat solution would probably be in Israel’s best interest. no thanks.

Ron Paul's biggest mistake. If we lose Israel we lose the total far east and our demise will be on the next short list.

..and to every other country. As he points out, we give $3B to Israel and $12B to her enemies. How is that supportive of Israel?

We haven't had a pro-Israel president in decades. All of them since Clinton, Bush included, have wanted to set up an independent Palestinian State, and that's not pro-Israel no matter how you spin it or how much aid you grant Israel.

The fact is that most of those politicians in the so-called "pro-Israel camp" just want to use Israel to get votes and to hide behind to further American policy in the region so that they can rule the world. Ron Paul has always said that Israeli-Palestinian peace is between them, not us. Israel is a sovereign nation with a right to manage its own foreign policy and it's own borders. Israel may be a friend but it's not the 51st US State and no president has the right to treat it that way -- for good or ill.

This is remarkably consistent of Ron Paul to anyone who has read beyond the MSM headlines and the detractors' BS.

Can you please point out to me where exactly in Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution Congress is authorized to give American taxpayer money to any foreign Government?

Yawn. We’re broke and he’s opposed to foreign aid across the board.

Ummm actually we give $13 Billion to the terrorist enemies or Israel.

Israel only receives $2.5 Billion

Does that make sense to you?
