We caught up with Congressman Ron Paul after his speech at the Tea Party Patriots American Policy Summit in Phoenix over the weekend. One of the themes of that speech was that America cannot impose democracy upon the rest of the world. However, unaddressed was whether America ought to protect allies who are free and wish to remain so. Here was our follow-up with the congressman.
NRB: David Horowitz and others have been critical of the effect that your foreign policy would have upon Israel… How would you describe a libertarian vision for alliance that could support democracies where people want to determine their own course while under threat by external forces?
Ron Paul: We’ve been involved a long time, since World War II, especially since we’ve inherited or developed our empire. We strongly supported all the dictators that surround Israel, and sometimes we buy peace and pay for it. But it’s unstable. And that instability has always been a threat to Israel. Now, when it’s coming apart, and our financial system’s coming apart, Israel is in worse shape than ever because of our so-called protection.

“Iran’s president has clearly stated his desire for chaos and advocacy of martyrdom in the name of jihad. These aren’t the Russians we’re dealing with. These are members of a death cult who welcome their own demise if it means taking some Jews with them. ”
-Walter “Grand Wizard” Hudson, Professional Hatemonger
Prove it. Or is everyone just supposed to take your word for? You now what else, Jews are as crooked as their noses, Blacks are stupid and violent, the Irish are alcoholics, the French are cowards, just like Islam is a an Evil Death Cult. No need for any evidence, just take a bigot’s word for it.
You’re both a liar and a bigot. Congratulations. You should be proud of yourself you hate-filled coward.

Please, calm yourself. It’s an embarrassment.
You presume the death cult is Islam at large, when it fact is a subset which believes and clearly expresses a religious duty to destroy both Israel and the United States. The evidence is so ample, the claim is self-evidently true. Google “the Mahdi.” Google “Death to Israel.” Watch Iranium for free online.

The bigoted author, having no facts to defend his bigoted beliefs, defends his derogatory, hate filled “argument” with a vicious, fear-laden emotional fallacy about “Death Cults”. SCARY!!!!
What an amateur. Go take your “arguments” to an introductory level philosophy class where they belong, as examples of fallacies to be easily picked apart by incoming freshman (e.g. straw man, emotional appeal, red herring, etc.), you sophomoric, emotionally stunted, ignorant, hate-filled buffoon.

You might want to throw ad hominem onto the list. It seems to be your favorite.
