Ron Paul - 'So we first, indirectly and directly through Israel, helped establish Hamas, then we have to kill them' (Congress, Israeli)

[believe007]

Ron Paul.....he's a gentleman & a scholar.
Honestly people don't want the truth-
they buy into whatever the media tells them to think.
But Ron Paul...... that name commands so much respect from me.....
It's synonymous w/ the word legend in my mind.
What can I say--
Anyone who doesn't realize he's right again is an idiot.

I genuinely like and respect Ron Paul, but we all miss the target sometimes and he did that here.

Doesn't detract from my wish to see him POTUS, just throwing it out there.

As far as politicians go, I do too. Just pointing out he wasn't correct in his statement =)

He may be old, but he is no nut.

The honesty of the man has never wavered.



The corporations that run this nation, were not going to let his message get out. Media blackout of Ron Paul ensued.

What part of it was incorrect?

The platform the people were given at that time is not what they got after the coup. So now the leaders of Hamas are multi-millionaires living in Qatar. And even if they oust Hamas and get Fatah, Abbas has done the same thing as he and his two sons are now multi-millionaires who also have homes in Qatar. If/When this issue comes to an end both parties need to be removed and a coalition gov't will need to be set up for them to govern themselves and end up being the Puerto Rico of the Middle East.

Keep in mind that neither party are the true leaders since per their election laws their terms all ended in 2010 in both Gaza and the West Bank.

Even a broken clock gets the time right twice a day. Paul is no different.

Did pruzhany's post explain it well enough for you or do you need further clarification?

Somewhat.

I will forever be grateful to Ron Paul for speaking common sense during the 2008 and 2012 Republican Presidential debate primaries. He was the only man on that stage in both contests I had any respect for.

He always has a point. People need to recognize.
