Is this true? It doesn't sound consistent with the Ron Paul approach of non-interventionism. I think Horowitz is mischaracterizing Ron's position, so as to strengthen his contention that Ron is anti-semetic.

Excerpt taken from David Horowitz's blog:

Rand Paul has expressed opposition to the Patriot Act, has supported the cutting of military spending, has endorsed the shutting down of GITMO and has called for the banning of harsh interrogation of Muslim terrorists. His father (“the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” theory), Ron Paul, wants to end all foreign aid to Israel and see the United States sever its alliance with Israel. He has gone so far as to denounce the pro-Israel lobby on Capitol Hill, but NOT the Saudi lobby. The elder Paul is a staunch critic of military action against Iran.

Hmmm. Someone should email Horowitz this letter from Walter Block:

He hasn't denounced cannibalism either. I don't pay attention to a political denounce-athons; they’re for people that can’t think or research on their own.

That guy is completely nuts. There is not one shred of logic or morality in anything I've ever heard him say. Ever.

Horowitz the "ex communist" can kiss my ass and I hope he reads this so that the shit head reads what I just wrote.

I stopped reading at David Horowitz and the newsrealblog --- they *hate* Ron Paul because he's not pro-intervention (thereby in their world he's a bigot/anti-semite/hater/isolationist/evil/satan/beezlebub/etc).

I have a hard time taking anything this Horowitz idiot says seriously.

+1.

so what.

we should concern ourselves with the policies he promotes, and not the people he has or hasn't denounced.

i mean, of course, it is important to recognize why his policies aren't in place, because of the pro-israel and the pro-saudi and other umpteen lobbies, but to base your vote for him on what he hasn't denounced, is ridiculous.

What a jerkoff.

When the Saudi lobby has the United States involved in 2 wars and another on the horizon. When it meddles in absolutely every political decision in Washington D.C. When we have dual citizens (saudi arabia and the US) holding extremely high office and writing bills, when they are pushing for open borders and the globalist agenda, then perhaps we should condemn the pro-saudi group too.
