On the evening of Sept. 16, 2009, I was invited to a function for Rand Pauls U.S. Senate campaign at the headquarters of Americans for Tax Reform.
I had been invited by a friend of mine via Facebook who was a passionate supporter of Ron Paul. Within minutes of arriving, I saw Rep. Paul enter the room, followed by an entourage of several college students.
I immediately walked up to Paul and introduced myself, and Paul smiled at me and shook my hand. I told him that I had always wanted to ask him a question, and that it was a hypothetical question, but I would appreciate his answer nonetheless. Paul smiled, and welcomed the question. At this point there were about 15 people surrounding us, listening.
And so I asked Congressman Paul: if he were President of the United States during World War II, and as president he knew what we now know about the Holocaust, but the Third Reich presented no threat to the U.S., would he have sent American troops to Nazi Germany purely as a moral imperative to save the Jews?
And the Congressman answered:
No, I wouldnt. I wouldnt risk American lives to do that. If someone wants to do that on their own because they want to do that, well, thats fine, but I wouldnt do that.

Even to remotely consider him in a serious manner makes me question a posters cognitive function and possible drug use...
ZOT!

Nope. No write-ins will be counted in the primary. Any other type of election you can write in.
So now we’re supposed to take the word of Jeffrey Scott Shapiro, a former Washington, D.C. prosecutor who served on U.S. Senator John F. Kerry’s legal team during the 2004 presidential election, studied under Governor Michael Dukakis and interned for President Clinton in the White House.
Next I expect to read an article by Karl Rove about how Ron Paul has COOTIES!
but figured you were hopeless.
1 Sam 8:10 Sh’mu’el reported everything ADONAI had said to the people asking him for a king. 11 He said, “Here is the kind of rulings your king will make: he will draft your sons and assign them to take care of his chariots, be his horsemen and be bodyguards running ahead of his chariots. 12 He will appoint them to serve him as officers in charge of a thousand or of fifty, plowing his fields, gathering his harvest, and making his weapons and the equipment for his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters and have them be perfume-makers, cooks and bakers. 14 He will expropriate your fields, vineyards and olive groves - the very best of them! - and hand them over to his servants. 15 He will take the ten-percent tax of your crops and vineyards and give it to his officers and servants. 16 He will take your male and female servants, your best young men and your donkeys, and make them work for him. 17 He will take the ten-percent tax of your flocks, and you will become his servants. 18 When that happens, you will cry out on account of your king, whom you yourselves chose. But when that happens, ADONAI will not answer you!”
Yah’s world history is cyclical as in history repeats itself. It is called prophesy and we know what is to come by what has already happened. Therefore if we do not learn from the mistakes of the past, we will continue to repeat them until total destruction is abound. Maybe if more put as much time and effort to learn history as they do in trying to find an infallible man(no such thing exists) to lead them, then maybe true peace could come to Jerusalem & the children of Israel.(which by the way are not just the Jews. There were 11 other tribes of the dispersion and because they would not then and will not today adhere to the doctrines of man (Talmud) they are to this day shunned by their brethren who were called to bring them back into the fold, not put a fence up to keep them out.)
Messiah came to tear down the wall of separation(Talmud) which the house of Judah does their damnedest to rebuild it back up and they wonder why persecution still abounds. So brethren, I pray for you and for Jerusalem, but I will not concede to the kind of man you claim to be a conservative when that man is anything but a conservative according to YHVH. Until you put down your Talmud and start doing the job YHVH gave you to do which is to bring your brethren back to the covenant, not by works but by faith knowing the works will come as YHVH opens their hearts to them, then YHVH will hear from His children and heal their land.
The Scripture Messiah taught & preached from(the Tanakh) tells us that Nazi Germany aka Hitler’s throne was not the bearer of the 1st holocaust and it will not be the last. But if we put our faith and trust in YHVH and do as he says to do...flee away from these wicked men, we can escape that persecution. There is no salvation from man, nor can there ever be.
Once again, assertions and no links.
There are 3 criteria for an intervention such as that:
1) a mass violation of natural rights must be occurring
2) it must be in our own self interest as a nation to intervene
3) there must be a good chance of succeeding
Of course we fought the Nazis which as a side benefit ended Nazi extermination of Jews. But I cannot think of any specific efforts we made to stop the Holocaust. So Ron Paul is not too far from what the Allies thinking and actions were in WW2. Jewish life was cheap back then....this is why Israel is armed to the teeth
I also see that you define presenting facts with links as whining. ROFL
...You and I and a stranger are standing in front of a burning building. I say to you “Hey, there’s someone inside, you’d better go save them.” Do you want the choice to be a hero or a coward. Or should we have a vote?
You are definitely a Paulbot...
Here are your links...
