not defending ron paul. but were are occupying alot of countries. and i agree with paul that we dont need to be in 169 countries right now

Occupying, You and Ron use the typical Left wing spin.

There are some on FR who don’t want to believe war has been declared on America.
The enemy is in many countries including right here.
The IslamOfascists won’t by pass you because you are a Paulite, anyone who is a Christian or Jew are being killed.

We are not “occupying” any country.

[lmr]

‘Occupation?’, You mean we weren’t invited, welcomed or asked to be there by all 169 governments?

"we dont need to be in 169 countries right now"

I also agree with that. If for no other reason, we can't afford it! We are effectively bankrupt, and it isn't worth it to keep our military stationed in so many places. We have world wide strike capability with our Air force and Navy without having bases everywhere around the globe.

I lived five (5) years under the German's occupation of my former country 1940 - 1945!!!

You apparently don't know or have experienced what the word OCCUPATION really means???
