Do you think Ron Paul would have responded to Pearl Harbor? After all, at that time Hawaii was not an American State. It was a territory where we had ships based. If we weren’t there then the Japanese wouldn’t have been mad with us. So fast forward today. Should we give up all territories worldwide and withdraw? Are all American bases to be no longer defended since they might be provocative to someone?
Rupaul followers in 1941: “Pearl Harbor was an inside job!”
“Do you think Ron Paul would have responded to Pearl Harbor?”
Pretty much the way the Pearl Harbor conspiracy theorists have responded. ‘It was a conspiracy’. ‘We made them attack us when we cut off trade’. Etc.
“So fast forward today. Should we give up all territories worldwide and withdraw? Are all American bases to be no longer defended since they might be provocative to someone?”
I think Ron Paul is on record starting that all US troops should be withdrawn to the US. I guess if he were a football coach, he would forbid his team from crossing the fifty yard line, ie, outside their own territory.
