Paul says friendship best way to deal with Iran AP News Sunday, November 06, 2011
GOP presidential hopeful Ron Paul says "offering friendship" to Iran, not sanctions, would be a more fruitful to achieving peace with Tehran.
The Texas congressman says fears about Iran's nuclear program have been "blown out of proportion." He says tough penalties are a mistake because, as he says was the case in Iraq, they only hurt the local

He’s retarded...
You know, I’m personally disposed to libertarian thinking. However, when someone is telling me over and over that they want to kill me, my involvement seems prudent and necessary.
Or maybe Dr. Paul is the Twelfth Imam. LOL
Didn’t Joe Kennedy Sr. talk this way about Hitler?
Paul is a starry-eyed dreamer. He needs to be kept far away from any position affecting US foreign policy.
Not even shocked any more by the old coot’s ignorance. It lost its humor a while back.
wRONg PAUL is gay and so are hes minions who post here.
There’s no such thing as a healthy Muslim/Infidel relationship in the eyes of Arabs. Dr. Paul really should allow history to be his guide.
I don’t think his position stems from ignorance.
I don’t think he’s ever been known to defend Israel.
Yep...he is misguided, beyond belief.
At the same time, how many are there, like me, who would say nuke Mecca, right now, next 30 seconds? Come on, place your vote. Yes or no...
I don't understand how Paul and Perry can generate so many facepalm moments this early in the primary season and still have serious supporters among FReepers.
If you can’t even pull off wearing a prosthetic eyebrow... well...
Dear Princess Celestia,
Today I learned that you can actually deal with Murderous Fascist Regimes and a Friendly and kind manner, If you show them you are willing to be friends, they will want to be too, and is not proof positive that I have absolutely no understanding of history or how to project the Worlds Superpower forces in away that will in fact avoid Violence and not become a guarantor of it.
Yours truly Twilight-I-Love-To-Sparkle-At-Night-Ron Paul Because Friendship is MAGIC!!!
That is being far too kind. The Iranian leadership is not sane nor rational by our standards. We cannot be friends with them. We can only defend ourselves and our interests against them until they are replaced/eliminated. Barring that, we can seek to eliminate them ourselves directly.
And, thus, we understand why Ron Paul STILL won’t be the next president.
I would not support a Nuke Mecca campaign.
Paul repeatedly proves the wisdom of the ancient Chinese saying, “better to keep one’s mouth closed and have others think you a fool, than to open it and confirm that you are.”
Moron.
“I don’t understand how Paul and Perry can generate so many facepalm moments this early in the primary season and still have serious supporters among FReepers.”
The answer is strategy. There are a number of Trolls on FR who seek to persuade and dissuade voters. They wish to draw votes away from Conservative candidates.
LOL. My Little Pony.
