Bottom line: Paul will criticize the foreign policy of the U.S. - and it’s allies - for even the slightest intervention into other countries and their affairs. It doesn’t matter how dangerous and threatening they are, we’re supposed to sit back and not intervene.
But never, ever, does he even spout the most basic rhetoric at the Soviet Unions, China, Iran, Pakistan, Venezuela or any other country with hostile intent toward us - he simply goes full circular and blames us for their problems and actions. He REFUSES to admit any nation has hostile intent but us.
RP is intellectually dishonest - period.

Doesn’t sound like the Ron Paul I know. This is from his website at:
http://www.ronpaul.com/on-the-issues/national-defense/
“If elected President, Ron Paul will continue his efforts to secure our borders, hunt down the 9/11 terrorist planners (who are still at large), safely withdraw our troops from Iraq and other countries around the world, and finally overhaul the intelligence apparatus in cooperation with intelligence professionals rather than political opportunists”
This is a quote from the 2000 Republican platform:
“...the current administration has casually sent American armed forces on dozens of missions without clear goals, realizable objectives, favorable rules of engagement, or defined exit strategies.”
Sounds like something Ron Paul would say.
BTW, there are 2 videos on foreign policy on his website at:
