Ron Paul is as blind as Nat Hentoff.

...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.

[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.

[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/

“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.

[VeniVidiVici]

Preemptive war?

I swear this guy is freaking batty.

[Navy Patriot]

I have no reason to doubt Cheney. After all the US requests of Israel to bend over and take it, I would expect that Israel simply wouldn't ask anymore, they know what they will hear.

It saddens me that Paul has come up with a philosophy that asserts that it is OK for Hamas to kill Jewish children with impunity, IF they use less powerful weapons than those in possession of the IDF.

Western civilization will die by suicide.

[Billthedrill]

Well, Cheney said bluntly that the Israelis had not asked for approval. Paul said they "got the green light," which normal human beings would interpret as the same thing. One is telling the truth. The other is not.

Only one of the two can present evidence, and that is Mr. Paul, and that's what he needs to do if he wishes to be taken seriously.

As far as dismissing weeks of random rocket attacks as inconsequential he is perfectly free to live under them himself and see. But you can see here that he's bought the case presented by his supposed arch enemies, the globalists - Israel should tolerate these attacks because it's big and strong and the attackers only kill a few people. Shame on Mr. Paul for failing to adhere to his own principles.

[stockpirate]

According to this nitwitthe US would not be allowed to attack any country if they attacked us first.

[GoldenPup]

Ron Paul sides with Hamas

Ron Paul = kook preaching to moonbats. Nobody with any intelligence really listenes to this idiot.
