Ron Paul: Israel had US OK for war on Gaza (Ron Paul sides with Hamas)

Press TV ^ | 1/5/09

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Ron Paul is as blind as Nat Hentoff.

[mnehring]

...the Israeli attack on the impoverished Gaza Strip shapes a bleak future for the whole world as it means that, "the whole idea of preemptive or preventive war is spreading."

Yep, being shot at for months by rockets, having your kindergartens blown up, kidnapping your soldiers, sending down's syndrome children into cafes with bombs strapped to them.. that isn't justification for war in Paul's world, nope, it is 'preemptive war'.... jeeze...

[screaminsunshine]

Can not back RP on that BS. Maybe he would like a few rockets around his area every day.

[CodeToad]

“the whole idea of preemptive or preventive war is spreading.”

Let’s see, Hamas launches rocket into Israel. Israel responds. That is called “preemptive or preventive war”???

[BGHater]

Press TV- Funded by the Iranian Gov’t.

Is there more propaganda you would like to publish from Iran.

[SolidWood]

Who do I trust, Cheney or Paul? No brainer I guess.

[Pistolshot]

"Palestinian missiles are so minor compared to the fire power of Israel...."

Tell that to the families of the victims of Palestinian missiles that have died over the last two years.

[TheConservativeParty]

Is Ron Paul HIGH??? This is from The Onion right? sarcasm on.

[lormand]

I was arguing with a Hamas sympathizer on the IDF channel on YouTube a few days ago. The guy was using the most vile and evil words towards Jews and Israel. When I accused him of being a liberal, he informed me that he was a "conservative" and had voted for Ron Paul. I reminded him that we don't buy the "conservatives for Ron Paul" trick.

[LdSentinal]

Is there more propaganda you would like to publish from Iran.

Uh, Ron Paul gave this interview to this propoganda outlet.

I'll look to see if Ron Paul was wearing his Nazi uniform when giving this interview.

[MeanWestTexan]

Wow, I really dislike Ron Paul.

[KarlInOhio]

The tenth day of the assault brings the number of Palestinian casualties to 530 with over 2,600 others wounded. The UN says that about 25 percent of the casualties were civilian deaths.

Since the definition of casualties include both the dead and wounded, the UN is saying that:

civilian deaths = 0.25 x (dead + wounded)

= 0.25 x (530 + 2600)

= 783.

So of the 530 Palis killed in this attack, 783 of them were civilians.

I love UN math.

You a Mormon, Bro?

[kingpins9]

If RP really said that he is an idiot. I agree with his monetary policies, but he is out to lunch on Israel.

[BGHater]

Now RP is a Nazi. Awesome. No politician is perfect.

[top 2 toe red]

Ron Paul says Israel had received a green light from the United States to launch an offensive in Gaza.

Sure...we know Ron Paul has top-top clearance and he was told, "We're giving Israel the green light to bomb Gaza, Iran and anyone else they want before we leave office. Sure, sorry we have to go up against your objections to this, Ronnie Boy." sarc/

[lormand]

Israel should have given a "proportional response" right? That would mean that every Jew in Israel pack up and leave ASAP.

[AuntB]

“The Texas congressman said the Israeli attack on the impoverished Gaza Strip shapes a bleak future for the whole world as it means that, “the whole idea of preemptive or preventive war is spreading.””

Preemptive? The palestinians are attacking them daily!

This is just one of the things where Paul falls off the wagon.

He managed to screw up the primary with his blind sided worshipers, now he just needs to shut up.

[LdSentinal]

No politician is perfect.

I'm sorry you support a Hamas/Al-Queda lover.
