Muslims discover Ron Paul (Anti-Zionists encouraged to register republican and send Paul money)
WordPress.com ^ | November 18, 2007 | mariahussain

Posted on 11/19/2007 6:00:13 AM PST by tlb

After the Republican debate on Tuesday evening in Dearborn, Mich., a reporter from the Arab-American News asked Ron Paul what he thought of the term “Islamic fascism.”

“It’s a false term to make people think we’re fighting Hitler,” Paul responded. “It’s war propaganda designed to generate fear so that the war has to be spread.”

The call has gone out to all the Muslim Americans to hurry up and register to vote Republican so that they can vote in the Republican Primary to support Ron Paul, the anti-interventionist, non-isolationist candidate for President of the United States. Muslims are opening their wallets and joining teaparty07.com as well.

An anonymous Ron Paul supporter posted the following message on the internet: “Muslims and Americans have an unique window of opportunity for the 2008 election. There is a candidate running as a Republican that would work to completely cut off the funding to Israel, remove ALL US troops from Arab lands, and repeal the Patriot Act. He’s a Republican with Libertarian views named Ron Paul. Ron Paul’s policies ranging from monetary to foreign are top notch. Till now Muslims and Americans have not had an American Presidential candidate that really suited their best interests. This election is unique in that we have a man running as a Republican that speaks the truth…We know the current policies in the Middle East are failing, not only making it less safe in the world but hurting and killing innocent Muslims, which our media callously calls collateral damage. It is our duty as Muslims to follow the truth regardless of how futile it may seem. Ron Paul is the only candidate that does not seem to be swayed by the influential lobbies that the other candidates are catering to.”

Ron Paul stood up in Congress in 2006 and opposed a resolution that sided with Israel in the Lebanon-Israel conflict. He stated the following.

Ron Paul: “Mr. Speaker, I follow a policy in foreign affairs called non-interventionism. I do not believe we are making the United States more secure when we involve ourselves in conflicts overseas. The Constitution really doesn’t authorize us to be the policemen of the world, much less to favor one side over another in foreign conflicts. It is very clear, reading this resolution objectively, that all the terrorists are on one side and all the victims and the innocents are on the other side. I find this unfair, particularly considering the significantly higher number of civilian casualties among Lebanese civilians. I would rather advocate neutrality rather than picking sides, which is what this resolution does.”

Ron Paul has also sponsored a bill to overturn the Patriot Act. He is one of the few members of Congress from either of the major houses that is speaking rationally about these issues. How can we get everyone, and I mean everyone, to join the Ron Paul Republican voter sign-up campaign?

There is general frustration with politicians these days, and the unwillingness to believe that supporting a particular candidate will make a difference. But whether Ron Paul wins or loses, ronpaul.meetup.com is a great way to meet your neighbors who are against the war and organize the community on a grassroots level. If something like Katrina ever happened to us, knowing our neighbors could mean the difference between life and death to our families.

The common thread I’ve been reading lately about leftists and Jews is that they are having trouble getting more than a dozen people to come to their stuff (whether anti-Zionist or Zionist). The anti-Israel movement is not moving forward, because “protest Zionist imperialism” is just not a catchy slogan. By contrast, there are over 400 RP activists against war taxes in Boston alone. Every day the list of passionate anti-war activists grows. Very few of them agree with every single RP position, they just want to get the Lobby out of the way and pull the troops out of Iraq.

One reason it’s working is because of the software. They made the ronpaul.meetup.com site almost like a dating site, where you can make friends with people in or near your zip code. They made it very easy to get together with new people to join the activism. You can’t beat technology, may as well use it.

In the event that RP actually won the election and got the Hamas treatment, his supporters are fully in support of the Right to Bear Arms. It would be interesting to see what followed.

If anti-war protesters want to continue to focus on the genocidal machinations of the global zionist-imperialist military, industrial, financial, political, neoliberal, media complex, they have to be willing to meet with anyone any time to hear what ideas people have to address this, which is our primary responsibility - even if they are Republicans.

If you ever saw Ron Paul in an interview it cannot be said that he avoids discussing vital issues. He is someone who is willing to make a statement and stick by it even when no one agrees with him. I don’t “believe” in electoral politics but it’s not that much sweat off my brow to go and vote to end war.

I think the fact that NO pro-Israel group will let Ron Paul speak at their convention, not even peace Zionists, is evidence enough that he is the only person to put in charge as commander-in-chief. And, even if he loses, making all these contacts with local anti-interventionists is priceless. If you want to expand the peace movement so that it overlaps with the freedom movement like ripples in a pond, you just have to respect the fact that people might agree with you, but for different reasons.

Add to that by trying to discredit me by labeling me a Rudy supporter even makes more sense.

I didn't say you were a Rudy suppporter, just a fan boy...

I like Rudy, he is very articulate and has good charisma. He would wipe the floor w/Harpy. That said, you should know better than supporting Rudy here.

You’re too generous. Ron Paul’s clearly a malevolent man. He simply cannot be as stupid as he seems and too indifferent to the kooks who support him.

Good morning.

I’ve read RP’s positions on immigration and the welfare state and, while I don’t necessarily disagree with most of them, and absolutely support ending the anchor baby problem, I have serious doubts about his seriousness or his ability to implement most of them. No problem, all politicians try to talk a good game. They want you to vote for them.

His antiwar stance, however, is unforgivable. He is either a fool if he believes that giving up and leaving means an end to the war with Islam, or he is a cynic who is willing to risk our nation to get elected. Either should disqualify him and there is no need to argue more.

You yourself have done more to interject fringe group ideology in Republican politics with your obsessive posting of these fringe websites and with your baseless accusations trying to link Ron Paul to them. Polite society usually ignores such as Black, Duke and Carto until some zealot forces them into the political equation...usually as an attempt to smear someone with the guilt by association ploy.

Your ongoing refusal condemn the likes of Duke, Black, Carto, Stormfront, Natvan et al is noted.

Yup, I’m a great friend to neonazis and advance their ideology.

Polite society, I suppose that’s open to interpretation. I’ve no doubt Duke, Black, Carto, Gibson all consider themselves part of polite society, as do their supporters.

Mainstream politicians, they all condemn the ideology and refuse the association, save Ron Paul.

Many may be but far many more are a bunch of hypocritical, self important, wack jobs and you know it.

This doesn’t have anything to do with Christians behaving hypocritically. It has to do with a Big Phony like Ron Paul dividing and destroying a political party for his own gain . (No matter how noble he may plan to use that gain its wrong and it sets the whole conservative movement backwards.)

Uh, who wouldn’t vote for Rudy before your Clown?? He is by far the most articulate candidate on our side. He is not afraid of Harpy and would clean her clock in a debate while he does not come off as a whackjob. Perhaps you should post the Rockettes fundraiser photo again, that should make your headcase.

There is one issue that matters right now and they on opposite sides and explains the Mooselip contributions. Your boy is on the wrong side of Histoir, as are you. Don’t give us your Fred line, nobody is believing it anymore. At least the Mooslimbs, truthers and you know which candidate to support.

Not to argue but to make a point. The often unmentioned fact that this nation building police action in Iraq draws the strong disapproval of the majority of Americans...as many as 70% of them. I don't think any Republican that runs on continuing our current foreign policy can win.

Installing Islamic Shia governments who base their Constitution on Shria law, as we did with Iraq, helps in our war against Islamic fanaticism How?

How is our WOT helped by selling Israel down the river in Annapolis? Our support of Islamic jihad in Kosovo aimed at Christian Serbs? How does that help? Sending 60 million dollars of military hardware to the Saudi State which funded the 911 perps and continue to fund the spread of Wahabbism throughout the world. Is that a good idea? How goes it in nuclear Pakistan these days? Some whack a hornets nest? If General M learned anything from our once support of Saddam then he learned how far he could trust Washington.

We may declare victory in Iraq and begin to withdraw troops from there before the election to give Republicans even a chance of winning but there can be no denial that whenever we leave, we will leave in power a government more ideologically aligned with Tehran then Washington(same type of government)...What sense will this war have made then?

People who give a crap about the 2nd Amendment, for instance.

He is by far the most articulate candidate on our side.

I don't consider people who speak with a lisp to be "articulate".

He is not afraid of Harpy and would clean her clock in a debate while he does not come off as a whackjob.

You fanboys are funny. "Here comes Mighty Rudy!!! He's not 'afraid' of Hillary!!! He's my knight in shining armor!!! Rudy cleaned up the city by disarming all those pesky colored people!!! I love Rudy!"

There is one issue that matters right now

Bull$hit. That's the excuse you liberal Republicans use to change the subject. The 2nd Amendment "matters" right now. The fact that killing unborn infants "matters" right now. Perhaps not to you, but to the huge segments of Republicans who will happily go third-party if Rudy is the nominee.

I love how the people who aren’t behind any candidate harbor these conspiracy theories about who other freepers are backing. It’s apathetic Republicans like you guys who are going to be responsible for Rudy winning the nomination. I’ll remind you of this a year from now when you’re bitching at the majority of freepers who go third-party.

We decided the 60 million dollars of hardware was not enough, so we are selling them 20 billion in military equipment. Yes, 20 billion. I know our great friends would never point this 20 billion military hardware at our troops. Guess we should be happy they are spending their black gold with us and not Russia or China.

The world bank has approved a 900 million dollar loan to our friends in Iran, yes, Iran, who we consider part of the WOT, 900 million will end up coming from the US taxpayers. WHY are we funding Iran? Makes no sense.

80 million(S Jackson may have a better/higher figure) or so to Abbas and his Fatah who will end up using this money to fight Israel with the aid of Hamas.

Great Foreign Policy!

I think we've discussed this before, and although you could find candidates I support in order, since I've told them to you, there's no need to repeat. It takes the fun out of the Giuliani charge, doesn't it.

the majority of freepers who go third-party., well if they do, so be it. Why do you assume Giuliani is unbeatable? What party do you expect Freepers to support? Libertarian? Constitution? Surely Ron Paul isn't lying when he states it won't be him.

Because there are only a few months left, he's winning big, and here we are on the premiere conservative Internet forum, and there are more gay-ass threads like this than there are promoting people like Thompson. If this is a microcosm of what's happening on the American right, we're in major trouble.
