But Texas Rep. Ron Paul, a candidate drawing about 2 percent in opinion polls, opposed a nuclear strike on moral grounds and because he believed Iran was no threat to U.S. national security. "We, in the past, have always declared war in defense of our liberties or go to aid somebody," Paul said. "But now we have accepted the principle of preemptive war. We have rejected the just war theory of Christianity."

His ignorance of the goals of radical Islam is appalling.

This isn't 'pre-emptive' in the sense that Augustine speaks of an unjust war. It's a pre-emptive strike to head of the ESCALATION OF A WAR THAT'S ALREADY UNDERWAY.

There's absolutely nothing unjust about self defense.

Security first! I like this man very much.

There is only one presidential candidate that strikes FEAR in the terrorsts, Dumocrats and assorted media miscreants.

I love Duncan Hunter and Tom Tecredo and Fred Thompson. We have 3 solid conservative candidates here.

There will be a lot of world and other opinion against a pre-emptive strike on Iran by the USA. Most of this concern is based on European pocketbooks since Iran supplies 40% of their oil. Our own lefty jerks will immediately blame the conservatives for any petroleum price increases.

Duncan Hunter for President in 2008. Why? He can scare our enemies at home and abroad. The name says it all.

We could have saved ourselves a lot of trouble - and about 20 million deaths - with a pre-emptive strike against Hitler.

If we can get Duncan Hunter elected as President in 2008, I’d predict that Iran would be ready to stop their nuclear ambitions about as quick as they gave back our hostages after Reagan took office in 1980.

I hope Bush beats him to the punch, frankly.

If we were to pre-emptively nuke another country, the world’s reaction would be devastating to the US and its interests abroad.
