We were attacked on our own soil and Dr. Paul later stated that he regretted his vote, as you will regret your support for these airstrikes when the blowback (from THIS intervention, not previous ones) hits us. Bombing ISIS in Iraq isn't going to prevent us from being attacked here if terrorists do attempt to do so.
Ted Cruz: We ought to bomb ISIS back to the stone age
Ron Paul voted to go after Al Qaeda leadership responsible for 9/11. He did not vote for a war in Afghanistan. He's said this many, many times.
Will you melt if you post anything resembling the truth? Is the truth like light to a vampire for you?

Ron Paul regretted this vote. You think I advocate banning myself because of stupid stuff I posted on CFC back in 2010?
Ask Tywysog, he can tell you how stupid I was
Good point. He voted for the AUMF, which ended up being used as a war, but it wasn't actually a war. I made a mistake.
Well, I knew I would get slammed for taking this position, but I just felt like I needed to be honest and admit that I changed my mind on this and why. I'm not going to go on an internet forum and claim that I hold a position that I no longer hold.

To be clear, I'm not. Like Ron Paul himself has admitted, I think it was a mistake.
We are in trouble because the warmongers have succeeded in their propaganda. We will not take out ISIS but even if we did, there will be a new group that pops up somewhere and the part time non-interventionists will once again claim that we will need to bomb for peace. If its not ISIS, it's Al-Shabab or Al-Nusra or the Sinola cartel, it doesn't matter because they will always find a bad guy "trying to destroy America", repeat it 10 million times on FOX news and BAM we are back at war.
We won't have to wait long to see how this foolish intervention into the Middle East will turn out. We've been there the last 10+ years. Yet, TC somehow claims "this time, it's different." Sure it is.... It's ALWAYS different this time around...

The United Nations has accused the ISIL of committing "mass atrocities" and war crime.
"Executions in public spaces have become a common spectacle on Fridays in al Raqqa and
the ISIL-controlled areas of Aleppo province / governorate in Syria.

As you have read in his book . . .
RP had a perfect way to handle the terrorists in late September 2001.
Bush At War by Bob Woodward gives the account of the Colin Powell, Condi Rice, and Rumsfeld group assembled by Bush43
while RP was on the floor of Congress - as you of course know already -
offering the ideas of the Letter of Marque and Reprisal for air piracy - what a genius of an idea ridiculed by the shithead talking head pundits, eh ?
So he voted ' GO!' like a Vietnam-era flight surgeon would - for Afghanistan.
By November 2002, when the Iraqi War Resolution Act came up for vote, RP and Jim Leach (R-Iowa) and four other GOP US Congressmen
voted NO to the eventual March 2003 storm blitzkrieg to Baghdad with Ollie North reporting - hahaha LOL
Now, you have a Canadian-born lard ass ready to shoot his pie hole off - go back to Canada US Senator Cruz.
Let Cruz vote, let Rand vote, let Lee vote yadayadayada
So this is where we are . . .
Sen. Tim Kaine’s (D-Va.) outspoken push for a vote to approve military strikes in Iraq and Syria
has cranked up tensions with fellow Democrats who worry it could hurt them on Election Day.
Vulnerable Democrats fighting for their political lives are frustrated that Kaine is pressing for a debate
on giving President Obama new war powers at a time when the commander in chief has become a political liability for them.
“Asking anybody to take that vote within two months of an election is just stupid.
Why would you put people in that position?” said a Senate Democratic aide.
Why ?
Yes, why ?
.
Why ?
.
A vote to authorize Obama to strike at Islamic militants in Iraq and Syria beyond the 60-day window set out by the War Powers Resolution
would be a de facto referendum on the president, according to another aide.
“I think it’s dumb,” said a second Democratic aide. “The less the president is in the news with anything right now, the better.”

Cruz ?
Cruz just doesn't stand - with Rand, or with anybuddy - very intelligently on anything, does he ?
Cruz is just a Canadian-born retard of a constitutional lawyer, eh ?

Then why comment? Your response to the post is about as useless as tits on a boar hog.
Sometimes people like to speak to hear the sound of their own voice.

Read it whenever . . .
I was wondering if you read any of RP's book before you claim no one could defend Ron Paul's military strategy in Afghanistan or anywhere LOL
Reading more than one sentence could be required before you'll see how cogent RP's foreign relations ideas are -
" freedom is popular " if you can think only in soundbites, which is by far the majority of voters -
Canadian -born Cruz sure makes an arse of himself in the youtube posted above - we can ignore any of the foreign policy "following like a sheep" that the Texas Senator does - no leadership on any ideas really.

Is this a good time to invade Syria to defend US freedoms and values?
In recent MSM news, alleged jihadist woman behind Paris attack is now "most wanted" and has fled to Syria to join ISIS:

You should support full-blown war in Syria because we allege that this woman, who was formerly the main squeeze of a guy who had no known ties to ISIS but allegedly talked nice about ISIS in Yemen, and is shown here wearing no head scarf and a bikini in lieu of a burkha, and weighs 110 pounds soaking wet, is going to go to Syria and help ISIS kill us all for the cause of Sharia Law.
