Ron Paul says U.S. intervention motivated 9/11 attacks

[HereInTheHeartland]

Ron Paul says we brought 911 on ourselves, again. He is a disgrace.

self-inflicted terrorism.

isn’t it fun?

Ron Paul is a sick twisted freak and his supporters are even worse.

Ron Paul, Go home, practice medicine, farm but stay out of politics, you are not a leader.

What a Pig. Right up there with Ward Churchhill, he claimed that the September 11, 2001 attacks were a natural and unavoidable consequence of what he views as unlawful US policy, and he referred to the “technocratic corps” working in the World Trade Center as “little Eichmanns”.

[Soul Seeker]

Paul is not an option.

The Japanese had already allied themselves to the Nazis (for a wide variety of reasons). Sure, the oil and metal embargo hurt ~ left them with a couple of months supply of both ~ enough to run their economy on a normal basis or launch an attack in SE Asia for the purpose of seizing the oil resources in Indonesia and Malaya. To do that they had to disable American (and Allied) military resources in the Pacific ~ hence the attack on Hawaii, the attack on the Philippines, and the attack on Singapore.

Filipinos could probably make an argument that their entanglement with the United States led the Japanese to attack them. But we'd dismiss that as crazy talk. It was pretty clear the Japanese were after their women!

Right guys?

Banzai. Banzai. Banzai. Free vacation on a Pacific island, soft breezes, beautiful girls, plenty of food other than rice to eat ~ you betcha!

Well to start with we armed the mujahideen
Arabic mujahidun (“those engaged in jihad”). Now they are killing our young people.
It was then that OBL and his ilk figured out we were totally clueless as to their REAL intentions.

[Republican Wildcat]

Yes, nothing new. He also has said a number of times we should listen to what the terrorists have to say and take it to heart in order to understand them and stop further attacks. Nevermind the fact they have attacked people completely unprovoked simply because they do not adhere to radical Islam, including other Muslims, who were simply minding their own business and not “intervening” at all.

One heck of a root cause analysis...

Well, that’s only counting the halls of Monteczuma to the shores of Tripoli. It obviously goes back farther.

Isolationism as national policy in the face of external global interventionism, imperialism never served to protect anyone, prevent invasion or attack. As only a few illustrations, see Ancient Israel by Rome, USA by Jap Imperial Forces, Nazi Germany, USA by Islam in the '90's, 21st Century, post-911 era.

Whatever merits in political views, issues Paul has as 2012 Republican candidate are more than negated by his mypoic, head-up-his-*ss delusions of global strategy, politics.

LOL!!!

Per Ron Paul: We should have let Gen. Gates and his troops confiscate the guns and gunpowder stored at Concord. Once the British confiscated all the guns and gunpowder in the colonies they would have had nothing to fear from us and would have left us alone.

This is simply not true.

Bin Laden/AQ were looking for an excuse to finish off 1993’s WTC bombing.

If AQ really wanted to help their own people, they’d create jobs for them. Real jobs. Not paying them to sit around. Not teaching them to eviscerate Jews and Christians.

But this IS the problem, isn’t it? It’s not about our ‘intervention.’ It’s about our very existence.

[Tzfat]

Not unexpected, Ron Paul blames the Jews ~ and this is not the first time that’s happened.

Thankfully his anti-Semitism is getting some attention. He is such a nut that a little popularity has gone to his head and he says these evil things more openly.

[Sarah Barracuda]

I think Ron Paul knows he isn’t getting the nomination(Thank God) so he is just letting loose with his insanity..he has been on a roll this weekend with the crap that has come out of his mouth..all he has to do now is say that he hates babies and puppies and that will pretty much finish him off. Everyone knows he’s nuts, the last few days should pretty much confirm that to anyone who even considered voting for him

[I see my hands]

If the actions of the USA motivated Muslims to attack on 9/11 then why hasn't 9/11 motivated wRONg Paul to attack a Muslin nation?

[grumpygresh]

He is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the 21st century schziod man.

[MontaniSemperLiberi]

I keep a rubber band on my wrist and every time I agree with Ron Paul, I snap it. My wrist has been hurting a lot lately. Not on this one though.

[txhurl]

You forget the weed voting bloc.
