Comments on: Ron Paul on Israel http://www.ronpaul.com/2009-01-12/ron-paul-on-israel/ Ron Paul is America's leading voice for limited, constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, sound money, and a pro-American foreign policy.

He is a U.S. Air Force veteran, for goodness' sake. He believes in Ronald Reagan's "Peace Through Strength" philosophy. He believes in a strong military. He believes in defending the United States. That is not in question.Obviously, however, Ron Paul rejects nation-building, empire-building, preemptive war, and globalism. By the way, this is something the Republican Party also used to reject before George W. Bush came along. And please understand, this is something that the vast majority--and I mean vast majority--of the American people also reject. If the GOP nominates a pro-Iraq war, pro-attack Iran, pro-preemptive invasion, pro-aggressive war candidate, they can kiss the November elections goodbye. The American people (except for the most fanatically loyal Bush supporters) are sick to death of American soldiers and Marines dying for Mideast oil, million-dollar Halliburton contracts, and "surrender-your-liberties-because-we-are-at-war" dribble. However, it is evangelical Christians' misunderstanding of Ron Paul's position on Israel that seems to be the most problematic. Ron Paul is anything but a pacifist.

Paul may not be one himself, but even if that is so, he espouses positions which lead to hatred and division.

With that thinking, then we should allow China, North Korea, Russia, Iran, etc... to have military bases on U.S. soil." With THAT thinking, we should want to establish bases IN those countries. Last I checked, our bases are in countries we have counted as ALLIES, not ADVERSARIES. tuckchristine opines, “I have heard Republican diehards state that if we pulled out 900 military bases from the 130+ countries it would effect those countries economy.

He probably would have done an interview with Tokyo Rose during World War II as well. He's definitely lost any consideration he might have had in my mind.
