Ron Paul Tells Newsmax: I Support Israel

Ron Paul Tells Newsmax: I Support Israel

In an exclusive Newsmax interview, Congressman and Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul confirmed his support for Israel, but cautioned that while the United States should be a “friend” of the Jewish state, America should not be the “master” of Israel.

Paul also says the United States should not dictate Israel’s borders or try to “buy her allegiance” with massive amounts of foreign aid. He argued that foreign aid has actually hurt – not helped – the Jewish state.

The interview was conducted by Newsmax contributor Doug Wead, a presidential historian and New York Times best-selling author.

Paul has recently come under fire from some Jewish groups in America. The Republican Jewish Coalition banned Paul from a debate on Jewish issues in Washington this week because of his “misguided and extreme views,” according to the group’s executive director, Matt Brooks.

Newsmax chatted with Paul to get his side of the issue as the Texas Republican is surging in some presidential polls.

A new Washington Post-ABC News survey in Iowa shows him threatening Mitt Romney as the second-leading candidate behind Newt Gingrich. Paul is now tied with Romney in the early caucus state with 18 percent of the vote, behind Gingrich’s 33 percent.

Rep. Paul’s interview with Newsmax follows:

Funny... Last I read he wants to cut off our CURRENT aid to those groups as well.

Just as I suspected, you’re a damned liar. When you’ve been told over and over again that you are spreading false information, you steadfastly refuse to respond to the point being made to you.

You revel in your dishonesty like a pig in mud.

Over turn Roe v Wade.
Defund planned Parenthood.
Sanctity of Life Act.

Yep... He’s a regular baby-killer.

As for 9/11, he wanted Letters of M&R added to our arsenal and a full investigation of why Able Danger was shut down. Hardly as much of a “troofer” as most of his followers are.

I agree that his standing up with the likes of Kucinich makes me wonder if he doesn’t have a few screws loose. You do not lie down with dogs and act surprised that you now have fleas.

Bachmann is back to being my top pick now that Cain has fled the field.

Yes, I mentioned that he was personally pro-life, but I think his libertarian streak will prevent him from taking it head on and full force.

You could be right. However, he's also a Doctor. Ob-Gyn. He's "been there, done that". Other than Bachmann, I don't think any of the other candidates would have the issue nearly as high on their radar.

He's pretty good on RKBA issues, my #1 issue, but so are Bachmann and Perry.

As I said, he isn't my choice, but he's not nearly as bad as he's being made out to be either.

You are spreading false information

“These are not my links, and I am not the author. Another ******** lie by you.”

You are not reposting them? Someone else is using your login? Better get the mods on that right quick. You STILL have yet to answer what I have educated you on and the reason is obvious. You know quite well that U.S. military civilian employees are NOT the U.S. Military.

But it undercuts your line of BS so you ignore that fact.

You might well be the most dishonest Paulistinian I have had the displeasure to meet.

Congradulations.

Did Ron Paul accept money from Stormfront?

The money he accepts from his supporters and groups he supports does not bother me as much as the money he accepts from us taxpayers in all the earmarks he accumulates. The ones he says he is against. I guess in Cut and Run's mind it is do as I say, not as I do.

Your a damn liar....But a lousy one.

Ya don't think others can read back and see who the BS'er here is?

The Internet makes a great witness slick.

Congradulations.

And please, learn how to spell basic words junior.

Civilians working for the military are NOT THE U.S. MILITARY.

Paulbots do not allow the truth to get in the way of their good propaganda. They are not programed to think for themselves. They just accept what their leader allows them to accept.

And now you post responses full of bombast and vitriol in a vain attempt to hide the fact that you still have yet to answer the point that I have made to you over and over again.

Civilians working for the U.S. Military are NOT the U.S. Military. Never have been, aren’t now, never will be.

Here's an easy question for ya.

Which GOP candidate has received the most contributions from the military?

Do you dare answer this?

Is the answer unobtainable?

Are the answers to this top secret and locked in some vault in D.C.?

Take a shot...

Got computer? Afraid to look it up?

What are you afraid of?

Read the entire back and forth. It devolves predictably when dealing with a Paulistinian. They ignore the facts with which they are being slapped about the noggin and insert their own reality.

When you call them on it, they starting hurling curse words and insults.

It’s pathetically predictable and frankly....boring.

“Which GOP candidate has received the most contributions from the military?”

I will answer your question just as soon as you define what you mean by the word “military.”

Ron Paul on Foreign Policy

Everybody knows his foreign policy. Blame America first, then appease, appease, and appease some more. Then if that does not work just surrender. In Cut and Run's mind America has no right to defend herself. He is not called The Surrender Monkey for nothing.

Here’s another simple question for you:

Since you alleged all these links are “propaganda” could you provide a link showing which GOP candidate has received more contributions from member’s of the military?

This should be really easy.

Here’s another simple question for you, since you alleged all these links are “propaganda” and these are not really military members but people that work on military basis:

Do the people working on military bases not support the military?

Give him a break, he is a Paulbot. Like their leader they go by the motto, do as I say, not as I do.
