I had not realized that Ron Paul was in the anti-Israel camp ...

Before you all jump to conclusions. He isn't.

Something didn't seem quite kosher (pardon the pun) about this article so I tracked back the first two links:

It’s the man who called Israel, “an aggressive, national socialist state”

...the solicitation letter which ...

I have downloaded a few of the pdfs' referenced in the second link and read them.(it's going slowly slow because I'm bandwidth challenged). It seems the New Republic has published a skewed anti-Paul article which in turn was used as unchallenged reference material by Daniel Greenfield.

Link and read for yourself.

Then read this interview carefully.

Remember Ron Paul does not do sound bites well, perhaps except for:"I define foreign aid as taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries."

When Paul makes excuses for terrorists and their threats against Israel, when a majority of his supporters are rabid anti-Semitics, when he openly endorses (at sympathies with) OWS, disgusting anti-Semitics, there is no way to spin he is not anti-Israel and anti-Semitic.

Thanks very much. I see that you went to a lot of trouble to research. Unfortunately, over the years, he has chisen to associate with Stormfront and recently has stated that Iran is not a threat. I think Paul is a foreign policy disaster.

Before you all jump to conclusions, that’s standard denial/misdirection/strawman tactics.

I remain surprised that his supporters even try to deny the reality of what Ron Paul is, until I realize, they do so in order to conceal what they themselves are, so they can continue to operate here.

Ron Paul wrote those newsletters, did so with his own hand, and to continue to deny that he did so is obnoxious and offensive, and should be grounds for zotting.

Ron Paul’s a 9/11 Truther — again, why should his butt-boys continue to operate here and not be zotted?

Ron Paul: "I define foreign aid as taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries."

That has a nice epigrammatic structure but it's false. Poor people in rich countries ARE NOT the source of foreign aid. That Paul would say something this ignorant shows why he is so loved by the OWS extremists. This is the kind of jingly but nonsensical comment that Barak Obama would say.

Poor people pay NO Federal taxes. Ron is sooo out of touch.
