Ben Stein Calls Ron Paul's "Occupiers" Statement An "Anti-Semitic Argument" - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | December 29, 2009 | Michael

Posted on 12/29/2009 7:54:16 PM PST by Federalist Patriot

Here is video of Ron Paul and Ben Stein on "Larry King Live" getting into a heated argument over Ron Paul saying terrorist are motivated to hate us because we are "occupiers." (Video)

When Ben Stein said that we should help the government of Yemen by stopping terrorists and murders, Ron Paul said "why are they terrorist? They're terrorists because we're occupiers." Ben Stein then called Ron Paul's claim that we are "occupiers" as "the same anti-Semitic argument that we've heard over and over again."

Back in the real world
1) We were attacked first back int he 1790s
2) We are dealing with transnational movement. The Sunni and Shia Jihadis believe in a global Caliphate. National boundaries are unIslamic.

The Terrorist camps in Yemen were there long before they were hit with cruise missiles 2 weeks ago. They were moved there because Afghanistan and Iraq were too hot to handle.

And OF COURSE! IT'S ALL OUR FAULT!!!!!! (Cindy Sheehan;...Is that you?)

You Run Paulbots are hilarious!

Islam is a religion which evangelizes by the sword. They conquer and kill everyone who will not become one of them.

They will eventually take over the world unless they are stopped. We are free and most of us Christian or Jewish because we stopped them.

We should give thanks to our ancestors such as Charles Martel who stopped the Muslims.

I refer you to the story of Athanasios Diakos, hero of the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Turks (of the so-called "religion of Peace").

Note this paragraph:

"The severely wounded Diakos was taken before Vryonis, who offered to make him an officer in the Ottoman army if he converted from Christianity to Islam. Diakos refused the offer. The next day he was impaled.His last words were.. "Εγώ Γραικός γεννήθηκα, Γραικός θε να πεθάνω" ("I was Born a Greek, I Shall Die a Greek").

Athanasios Diakos

Head on back to DU, or your position in Odumbos cabinet.

Clearly your screen name has no bearing on your views.

Clearly you believe that this country randomly prowls the globe, looking for a handy place to unload explosive inventory.

Clearly you have not seen anything in the news either. I guess Americans should ignore that close to 100% of terrorist activities, terrorist attacks, and terrorists are MUSLIM. And, surprisingly, they hide in MUSLIM countries. And not so surprisingly, they hide amongst the civilian population.

Clearly these animals hate us, our way of life, our religion(s), our freedoms, etc, and want us DEAD. But thats ook with you.

Who could have guessed that we would target MUSLIMS training, abetting, aiding, planning, hiding, supporting, financing, etc more MUSLIM terrorists.

“And you must be an anti-semite to think that the Muslims shouldn’t like being shot at with USA missiles in their own country.”

Actually, “I Are One!”

In a manner of speaking, that is. Last time I checked, that miserable , wretched over sized sand box was known as the original habitat of the “Semitic People”. Arabs and Jews ARE Semites.

As for what Muslims in general and Arabs in this case, think - whatever!.

The British had quite a better view of the Arabs. Churchill on Arabs is available on Google. Check his River War, published in 1899.

Another British jewel of insight into the Arab is:
“The Arab is either at your feet or at your throat. Better he be at your feet.”

With regular use of superior force, Mr. Muslim will believe and be happy to tell you most effusively, “Oh Esteemed One, I agree with everything you every thought or said in your entire life.”

‘Nuff said.

Islam had better tread lightly in France. Ask the ghosts of the Huguenots slaughtered on St. Bart's Day.

IIRC, the church bells began to ring across France and the Catholic French arose and began to kill the Protestant French. That was white Frenchmen slaughtering white Frenchmen.

Imagine what they will do to the non-white Muslims when their territorial nature is finally exercised!

For any lurking liberals, consider reading Robert Ardrey’s “African Genesis”. No better examination of the evolutionary antecedents of human behavioral predispositions has been written.

I sort of split the middle here. Fundamentalist Muslims pretty much hate everyone who isn’t a Muslim. Becoming uninvolved in the Middle East wouldn’t cause the Bin Ladens of the world to suddenly love us.

That being said; our subsidizing of Israel just further pisses off the Muslims (and not just the terrorist ones, either) and doesn’t gain us anything other than what CIA-types would refer to as “blowback”.

Clearly, you don’t understand that Obama. That’s right, Obama, attacked Yemen. Obama, the worst President going back years (LBJ? FDR? Wilson?), is supported by YOU, not by me.

YOU are the one who is supporting the Leftist Obama.

But that’s right, you’re a Trotskyite.

The neocon position, in case you’ve “forgotten”, was invented by former Trotskyites, former Socialists.

Scoop Jackson, a Democrat, trained the neocon leaders.

Is that you? You’re supporting Obama’s foreign policy, not me.

What was it that Dole said in 1976? Democrat wars?

Ben no doubt has it out for Paul in ways that have little to do with the ME. Ben and his social circle its reasonable to say are probably heavily vested in employment thru out the Fed reserve bank system, occupying those cubicles full of “economists” and other hacks. Paul’s audit the Fed is probably cutting close to the economic heart of a good many of Ben’s social circle and their assets. Its a great job knowing when an asset class is to be favored and when to bail from the water cooler talk.
