Actually, it’s right along the lines of what Ron Paul has been saying - why declare war upon and invade Iran when we can much more cheaply and constitutionally ship them arms and instruction manuals by which they could overthrow their own tyrants?
The Romanians did it, and put a bullet in their tyrant’s brain after a fair trial, and showed his cooling corpse on state television for many delightful minutes of national celebration. Surely the Persians, there in the cradle of civilization, have the stones to do at least that.
Wrong.
We are still in Saudi Arabia, and since our presence in Saudi Arabia, we have toppled two regimes in that region and are operating Pakistans as well.
Using Ron Paul's "blame America" excuse, this poll should not be happening.
Not from the debates I have heard. He clearly repeated verbatim the liberal accusation that we were "radicalizing" the entire Middle East and increasing the problems.
This is, if true, diammetrically opposed to the situations he expounded.
