I don’t believe Ron Paul is anti-Semitic. Do you have any basis for making that claim?

I believe in all faith that Paul isn’t anti-semitic, however, I have never seen the radicals come out behind someone so strongly. I believe it is because Paul is so anti-war and he discusses the neocon (sic) control, to the radicals this equals to the zionist conspiracy.

This goes back to something I’ve said several times, if it wasn’t for Paul’s followers, I would never have looked so closely at his record- a record I believe is not what people make him out to be. I seen an opportunist who has been in congress so long, he is just enjoying the camera time and attention. He is willing to sell a piece of his campaign’s soul for the attention.

Yes I do. His rantings about the “neocons” and his newsletter that said “By far the most powerful lobby in Washington of the bad sort is the Israeli government.”

And then there was the resolution condemning Hezbollah where Paul was the lone Republican who opposed it, on the grounds that it didn't equally condemn Israel for being terrorists too.

The claim is made because Paul disaproves of the billions upon billions of aid will give to Israel. However, he would also cut out the billions upon billions given to arab countries like Egypt and Saudi. I think the Israeli's are more than capable of handling themselves and would perhaps even be better off without us. Any of his comments directed towards the Israeli lobby are just like his comments against any special interest group. It is like a liberal group saying Paul is 'against' the children for voting against children's health care and attacking the organizations that advocate for this sort of socialism. It is ridiculous.
