I think Paul is pretty sensible on the matter actually. Remember it was Jerry Ford who told the M.E. heads of state you have nothing to fear from us by supporting terrorism. Unfortunately we have armed far too many M.E. nations and as well aided the enemies of Israel. One such event likely occurred under LBJ and cost some sailors their very lives.

Israel is our best friend in the M.E. Had Poppy, Clinton, and W had enough brains to stay out of their foreign and domestic policy there is a very good chance Israel would have done some needed clearing out. Remember it was not the U.S. who ended Saddams nuclear program but rather Israels. I believe like Ron Paul we should reserve the right to answer a strike. All the anti-Paul is mostly based on Iraq. Maybe some Republicans need to see what some others said as well. There are some conservatives who believe it's time to get out of Iraq. You just don't hear about it. They are some of the most level headed and respected conservatives in congress.

As for Hillary? She'll have us there as well. Wearing U.N. Blue. There is better than a 50% chance now that the DEMs may win the White House. It's time for Bush to wrap it up in Iraq and the U.S. to learn a lesson on nation building.

I'm not 100% with Ron Paul on foreign policy but I think he is closer to the truth of the matter than anyone else running.
