Ron Paul is an old school conservative. More on this at this link. Remember: he noted that the Republican Party has largely walked away from its erstwhile conservative principles. Paul was not the one who changed: it was the Republican Party [ & its leftist infiltration ] that changed.

The average Iranians are pro west & like America & ALSO want to change their government. They tried in the last election cycle but the regime repressed their choice. Attacking Iran will only harden the average Iranians just as we did to the Serbs back in 1999. We really must stop making the SAME mistake over & over again. You might want to remember that the pro war position was the original position of the Left & that the anti war position was the original position of the Right before the conservative movement was infiltrated by pro war Leftists. Pointed out right here on Free Republic [ at this old link: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b62203120ce.htm which can be accessed right here from the Internet Archive. ] over a decade ago now.

The Iranian regime spouts off bellicose nonsense in order to intimidate but they are all bark. Just think about it for a second here. What sense does it make for them to get belligerent or ATTACK anyone considering that that would be SUICIDE & a death sentence for them. Israel alone has hundreds of nukes so if Iran were ever to foolishly attack them: they would be annihilated in short order. How hard is that to understand. All I see is the usual pro war rhetoric based on the same recycled canards. Let's get back to Constitutional principles & fix America first.

You assume far too much.

Adolf Hitler, like Ahmadinejad, told in advance of exactly what he intended to do. Nobody believed him. Just as you don't believe Ahmadinejad, evidently.

The world paid a price for not heeding the warnings.

And, in Iran's case, you should note that "SUICIDE and a death sentence" may be exactly what they wish. The regime's apocalyptic view of the "Twelfth Imam" calls for martyrdom. Thus, a policy of Mutally Assured Destruction would be irrelevant to such an adversary.

So it really doesn’t matter what I provide you, ok then.
You as well as Paul seem to think that Iran is all talk, which means you apparently know know nothing of who these people are or what they beleive their islamic fascists is.
It is for that reason Paul is dangerous.
