I sort of was a Paul supporter until that comment. I’m against continuing the wars (and starting one in Libya). I’m also against our playing globo-cop the world over. Although I support Israel, I don’t believe they are 100% right and the Palis have some legitimate grievances. Fighting a “War on Terror” ad aeternam is a joke.
But Paul’s comments take the cake. Blaming us for 9/11 is just foolishness of the highest degree. Killing Bin Laden and neutralizing Al Qaeda was 100% right in my book.
For the record, I’m a vet w/ two post 9/11 deployments.
You really need to educate yourself on this topic then. The leadership of the Palis have made clear they will never make peace with Israel under any conditions.
They have no legitimate grievances. Their only grievance is Israel exists. That is not a legitimate grievance
And just what might those so-called "legitimate"grievances be?
That Israel exists?
