ISRAEL AND RON PAUL

*
Rep. Paul is often accused of being anti-Israel or anti-Semitic. But what do JEWS say about Dr. Paul's positions?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrzz62FLkFk&feature=player_embedded

Watch the end of this video (at 4:25) to see Israel Premier Benjamin Netanyahu agree with Rep. Paul's policy on Israel.

"You don’t need to do nation building in Israel. ... You don’t need to export democracy to Israel. ... You don’t need to send American troops to defend Israel."


http://www.dailypaul.com/198088/huge-another-mossad-chief-agrees-with-ron-paul-nuclear-armed-iran-not-inevitably-a-threat-to-israel


http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/dec/29/israeli-spy-chief-downplays-iranian-nuke-threat/


http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=51-KA-Nc3_k

Both Israel's former Mossad chief and their current Mossad chief agree that the threat from Iran is overblown. In addition, "Zeevi Farkash, Israel’s former military intelligence chief, has said that Iran’s main drive for acquiring atomic weapons is not for use against Israel but as a deterrent against U.S. intervention."


Iran doesn't have an air force that can defeat a fleet of box kites or a navy that could take over Lake Winnebago. They can't produce enough of their own gasoline to run a lawn mower. 


The only ones getting gray hair over Iran are the gullible Christian neocons.


Don't forget, Rep. Paul's chief campaign manager, Bruce Fein, is a Jew!

RON PAUL AND RACISM

*
Rep. Paul is being attacked for some racist comments made in some newsletters that were produced in his name, after he went back to his medical practice, between his two stints in the House of Representatives. The issue was brought up during the '07/'08 campaign as well.

He has apologized for not sufficiently monitoring the content of the newsletters, has disavowed the comments, and his entire public (and private) life has been a repudiation of the sentiments expressed in those few newsletters. The comments were written over 20 years ago. Dr. Paul became aware of them perhaps ten years ago. He has repeatedly answered the questions about them in detail (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKBlk1Vpeuw&feature=player_embedded#!).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGhv3paNz6U&feature=youtu.be

Here is NAACP president Nelson Linder, standing up for Dr. Paul on the issue. The NAACP takes every advantage of playing the race card if they think 1% of it might stick, so the very fact that a NAACP president has come out in behalf of Dr. Paul speaks loudly in his favor.

http://reason.com/blog/2011/12/22/ron-paul-newsletters-not-going-away-but

Here are some people who think they have the smoking gun to prove Dr. Paul is guilty. They have uncovered a video of him speaking just before he reentered politics.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW755u5460A&feature=player_embedded

He simply mentions the newsletter as a source of economic information. If this is their proof that Dr. Paul is a racist, they are in trouble because a judge would throw this out of court in a fit of laughter.

Rep. Paul's personal and political philosophy has always been one of individual liberty and responsibility - not segregating people into various groups.

http://www.ron-paul-racist.com/ - Here is a website that deals with the issue in detail.

One other thought - ALL of the other candidates want to kill Arabs in, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, Pakistan, Libya, Egypt, and no doubt other Arab countries. Wouldn't this make them racist?

REP. PAUL AND ISRAEL

*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFZpL8F4FgU

Here is a seven-minute interview of Dr. Paul by "The Southern Avenger" Jack Hunter where he thoroughly covers his position on Israel.

http://www.ronpaul2012.com/2011/12/07/bruce-fein-on-ron-pauls-foreign-policy/

Here is an article by Dr. Paul's chief campaign manager, Bruce Fein - who happens to be a Jew!

"Ron Paul no more supports Iran’s development of nuclear weapons than he does the nuclear arsenals of Pakistan, India, or North Korea. But the best way to address the prospect of Iranian membership in the nuclear club is to renounce our current policy of regime change, promise annihilation of any country that employs nuclear weapons against the United States, and leave Israel free to do what it believes is necessary to defend itself…”

When Israel attacked a nuclear reactor in Iraq in 1981, almost the entire U.S. Congress voted to condemn the act. Ron Paul was one of the few dissenters: he voted against the condemnation and in favor of Israel’s right to self-determination.

****************************************


The whole point of the creation of modern Israel in the first place is so the Jews could be independent and sovereign and take care of themselves. After the war, if the European Jews wanted to live under American protection they'd have moved to Manhattan instead of the desert. Relying on foreign protection is antithetical to Zionism.

In the Bible, the Israelites often got in trouble with God for making alliances with other nations.

Numbers 23:9 For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.

*****************************************


"You don’t need to do nation building in Israel. ... You don’t need to export democracy to Israel. ... You don’t need to send American troops to defend Israel."

Who is the horrible ANTI-SEMITE ISRAEL HATER who said this?

Okay, the answer is: the CURRENT PRIME MINISTER of ISRAEL - BENJAMIN NETANYAHU!

Now, if the current leader of Israel says we SHOULDN'T do "nation building", we shouldn't "export democracy", and we shouldn't send American troops to the Middle East to defend Israel - WHY ARE WE DOING IT? Why do ignorant Christians DEFEND our war on terror as necessary to defend Israel? And why do Zionist Christians think we are blessing Israel by starting all these wars?

BTW, Bibi also says Israel would be better off without our MONETARY support (apply the same above questions here).

This is indeed the position of Ron Paul, proving Ron Paul's position is the MOST PRO-ISRAEL position of any candidate.

DR. PAUL (M.D.) AND DRUGS

*

Here's an area where people don't understand Dr. Paul's liberty position. As a medical doctor, he is not for ANY kind of substance abuse (including legal drugs). What he is for is FREEDOM.

Almost every substance has good and bad uses, and just because some people abuse them doesn't mean they should be made illegal for everyone. Drugs have only been "illegal" for about 50 years. Notice most of our drug problems have come since drugs were made illegal. That created a black market for them and made criminals out of many people who never committed violent crimes.

It's really not a matter of "legalizing" any drug. The fact is, the federal gov't should not be able to rule on substances one way or the other. That was not one of the few and specific areas our constitution gives fedgov authority in. It should be up to states and localities if they want to regulate any substances, from hemp to heroin. Anyone who wants the fedgov to control substances is violating our constitution and asking their representatives to violate their oaths of office. If we want them to LIE as their first official act of office, why should we be surprised when they lack integrity thereafter?

The biggest thing is that a gov't that is powerful enough to ban a weed is powerful enough to control or ban vitamins, supplements, alternative remedies, organic fruits & vegetables, fast food, red meat, raw milk, and pure water. And they have tried to control every one of those things.

Then the same gov't that decrees these things should be banned allows all kinds of toxic additives (in addition to processed sugar, corn syrup, and salt) to be put into our food, rat poison (fluoride) into our drinking water, and they want to pop every misbehaving kid on cocaine-like Ritalin. Who are they to tell us raw milk is dangerous? What makes the gov't expert on drugs, or anything?

The hemp situation is simply ridiculous. Hemp is impotent marijuana. It would take a joint the size of a telephone pole to get someone high - and no one could ever ingest enough to get high. Hemp has many valuable uses, like clothing and fuel. It would be a huge boon to our economy. Yet our gov't has made it illegal.

The bottom line is that the fedgov should not be involved in regulating any substances at all.

RON PAUL ON MARRIAGE & HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA


This is perhaps the issue Dr. Paul is most maligned for. Usually out of ignorance, though sometimes with malicious intent, many detractors accuse Dr. Ron Paul of supporting homosexual marriage. His own words show that he does not - though he does support freedom and limiting federal gov't to only those areas assigned to it by the constitution (and marriage is not one of them).

http://caucuses.desmoinesregister.com/2011/06/13/ron-paul-in-his-own-words-on-the-irs-tsa-marriage-abortion/

RON PAUL on GAY MARRIAGE: “Personally, I totally reject it. The whole idea of marriage should be between a man and a woman."

BTW, He gave that interview minutes after posing for the photo with me in Iowa. Additionally, from his latest book, "Liberty Defined", p. 185:

"I personally identify with the dictionary definition of marriage: 'The social institution under which a man and a woman establish their decision to live together as husband and wife by legal commitments or religious ceremony.'"

This is balanced by freedom:

"Why not tolerate everybody's definition as long as neither side uses force to impose its views on the other? ... With a lot less government involvement in our lives, this needless problem could be easily avoided. The best approach is to make marriage a private matter."

In fact, if we get gov't out of marriage altogether (like it used to be), that removes the ability of the lavender lobby to use the funds and force of gov't to propagate their sodomite agenda. Getting gov't out of marriage would totally disarm the homosexual lobby. The rest of us might lose some tax credits, but those clearly come with strings attached that we'd be better off without.

Additionally, on the issue of homosexual rights:

Rep. Paul introduced the Family Protection Act:


http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d096%3AHR07955%3A%40%40%40D&summ2=m


It states explicitly, "Prohibits the expenditure of Federal funds to any organization which presents male or female homosexuality as an acceptable alternative life style or which suggest that it can be an acceptable life style."


Rep. Paul also voted for an amendment to prohibit federal funding from going towards foster care children adopted by unmarried same sex or heterosexual couples. The amendment specifies that no federal money will support “the joint adoption of a child between individuals who are not related by blood or marriage.” 


Bill: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d106%3Ahz356:


Roll call vote: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/1999/roll346.xml

DR. PAUL ON EVOLUTION


Here is another area where some have been mistaken about Dr. Paul's position, and even lied about it:

From this campaign (2011):

"There is one argument against evolution that deserves consideration. If man is evolving and progressing, why is man's involvement in mass killings of one another getting worse and the struggle for peace more difficult? Government wars and exterminations in the twentieth century reached 262 million people killed by their own governments and 44 million people killed in wars. I fear that doesn't say much for the evolutionary process." Rep. Dr. Ron Paul "Liberty Defined", 2011. p.107.

From last campaign (2008):

"I think that the creation has been brought here by God ... We're God's creatures ..." Rep. Dr. Ron Paul, interview with Janet Porter, 2008.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4af9Q0Fa4Q (question starts at 2:40)

"There is a lot of debate on where does life come from. I have a personal belief, I believe each and every life comes from a Creator. ... "It’s a theory, the theory of evolution, and I don’t accept it ... I think that the Creator that I know, created us and created the universe." Rep. Dr. Ron Paul, post-debate interview 2008.

RON PAUL ON ISRAEL


This is another commonly misunderstood position. Dr. Paul is accused of being anti-Semitic or anti-Israel, when the truth is virtually opposite of that claim.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFosvHanBo

This puts the lie to the false claim that Dr. Paul is anti-Israel. Anti-Paul people need to learn the TRUTH before they start slinging accusations against him. What is it about FREEDOM and adhering to our CONSTITUTION that you are so against?

Dr. Paul wants to end ALL foreign aid on the correct grounds that it is unconstitutional. Being that we give Israel's enemies THREE TIMES as much foreign aid as we give Israel, this would benefit Israel as well as American taxpayers. Not only that, but America has been more of a hindrance to Israel than a help. We have prevented them from making peace treaties with countries we have issues with. We have prevented them from retaliating when they've been attacked. The best thing that we could do for ourselves, and for Israel, is to stop meddling in the Middle East.

http://dougwead.wordpress.com/2011/04/11/ron-paul-on-israel/ 

http://www.americansforisrael.com/ - several good Ron Paul related articles.

http://wakeupfromyourslumber.com/blog/andie531/ron-paul-most-pro-israel-candidate

http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/usnews/politics/6201-israeli-economists-agree-with-rand-paul-end-foreign-aid 

The above is perhaps the definitive article. Although specifically dealing with Rand Paul, he shares his father's position. This shows that many prominent Israelis, including Benjamin Netanyahu, agree with the Pauls.

**********************************

Ron Paul made this statement http://www.americansforisrael.com/archives/36 after Obama said that Israel should return to her 1967 borders: 

“The President gave a speech today about our foreign policy in the Middle East, and once again this administration has proven that it does not understand a proper foreign policy for America. When will our leaders finally do what’s right for America and rethink this irrational approach we’ve followed for far too long?

Israel is our close friend. While President Obama’s demand that Israel make hard concessions in her border conflicts may very well be in her long-term interest, only Israel can make that determination on her own, without pressure from the United States or coercion by the United Nations.

Unlike this President, I do not believe it is our place to dictate how Israel runs her affairs. There can only be peace in the region if those sides work out their differences among one another. We should respect Israel’s sovereignty and not try to dictate her policy from Washington."

“I am not the only one who can see the absurdities of our foreign policy. We give $3 billion to Israel and $12 billion to her enemies. Most Americans know that makes no sense." - Ron Paul

DR. PAUL (OB-GYN) ON ABORTION


Many people misunderstand Dr. Paul's position on abortion and state's rights.

Dr. Paul has authored the "Sanctity of Life" bill, which would ensure the pre-born are considered legal "persons". This would render ALL abortion as murder.

He has also authored the "We the People" act which would allow states to outlaw abortion without interference from the federal gov't or the courts.

Currently abortion is determined at the federal level - and abortion is allowed in ALL 50 states. Giving the fedgov more power always backfires.

The benefit of the state's rights tack is that you don't have to support ANY abortion at all - other people might in their jurisdiction, but you don't have to at all. OTOH, with most of the bills out there, you are actually supporting abortion IF certain conditions are met (waiting period, parental knowledge, sees ultrasound, etc.)

For those who think Dr. Ron Paul (Ob-Gyn who has delivered over 4,000 babies) is not pro-life because he supports state's rights:

ALL violent crime has ALWAYS been handled at the state and local level. If your wife or daughter was raped (God forbid) would you call congress - or would you call your LOCAL police and prosecute in your LOCAL courts? Doe that make you pro-RAPE because you deal with it locally? Of course not. Neither does it make Dr. Paul pro-abortion for dealing with it at state level. In fact it is consistent to handle abortion just like any murder.

To put the final nail in the coffin of the false claim that Dr. Paul supports states making abortion legal:


http://www.personhoodusa.com/files/Keith%20Ashley/Ron%20Paul%20Personhood%20Statement_0.pdf

I believe the federal gov't has a role to play. I believe Roe v. Wade should be repealed. I believe federal law should declare that life begins at conception. And I believe states should regulate the enforcement of this law, as they do other laws against violence.... We should allow our republican system of gov't to function as our Founders designed it to: protect rights at the federal level, enforce laws against violence at the state level. - Dr. Ron Paul PersonhoodUSA pledge addendum


He does NOT want states to make abortion legal. He wants states to enforce that it is murder. In fact he says for a state to not do so would be a violation of Art. 4 Sec. 4 of the constitution.
