Anyone notice that the US is now actually using the Ron Paul strategy in a limited way in Iraq?
We keep hearing other politicians and talking heads on tv talking about how the surge is "working" because attacks are down. Of course this connection is nonsense. Coincidence does not prove cause and effect.
What is working is Ron Paul's strategy: leave them alone. The reason that attacks are down n Iraq is due to the fact that we have turned some of the most troublesome spots back over to the Iraqi's. (The most attack prone Sunni areas).
If this was a test, it would be proving Ron's strategy will work: get out, leave them alone, less violence, no need for US troops and US taxpayer's money.
It would be nice if Dr. Paul got some credit here for his position...the only thing that has worked in Iraq is what he has advocated from day one.
