Rand was never a libertarian. Rand hated libertarians. Rand believed (foolishly) that libertarians had plagiarized her ideas, and that they were "a random collection of hippies of the right."
ARI claims that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were mistakes. But ARI claims thet they were mistakes DID NOT GO FAR ENOUGH: ARI claims that we should have immediately leveled Tehran the epicenter of global terrorism.
ARI also equated Bush's Christian fundamentalist support with Muslim fundamentalism. Furthermore, Piekoff endosed Kerry because Piekoff thought Bush was too religious.
Yes, the ARI would like to purge the world of Islam, because they see it as mindless mysticism. But the ARI would also like to purge the world of Christianity, for the same reason.
Curiously, they also support the "Jewish state" of Israel -- because they see it as non-religious. For that same reason, they support the US, which they clame is the "least religious nation on Earth."
Clearly, the ARI first determines what nation or person it likes, then projects its own fantasies onto it.
Libertarians, OTOH, are neither pro nor anti-religion, but leave it up to the individual. They are, however, consistently individualistic, which means they oppose forcing anyone to support a religion or foreign country, though they permit anyone to do so voluntarily.
