Ron Paul's position on the Threat of Radical Islam

[Traditional Conservative]

Radical Islam IS dangerous and the best way to protect OUR country is too bring OUR troops home and defend OUR country vs. subsiding security for S.Korea, Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia, etc...........

That's what I would say as well.

I would say that there are several different reasons why we got attacked on 9-11, with "blowback" being one of them, but radical Islam being another. The Japanese haven't attacked us for occupying their country.

they attacked us for a variety of other issues.

Please,,
Explain the Conquistadors. bringing god to the heathen Mayans.( and carrying off all the gold they could carry)
or How about the Crusades and Inquisitions?

An honest look at History will show a lot of conquests,, by various nations and under the name of religion.
It is not the religions fault that corrupt men use it for their own purposes, and it is always twisted out of shape to do so.
While at the same time good folk of that same religion are doing good..


There are both good and evil in the world.. and evil uses religion too.

I was talking about the individuals who act in criminal ways, all while following a certain religion.

Actually, yes, prosecuting individuals who perform criminal acts IS the answer. The mischief begins when the motivation for such acts is held to be the problem. Do you see the difference? 'Radical Islam' could then be considered a threat FOREVER, as it can never be defeated...it's a motivation, not a person or organization. If you understood this distinction, your topic would be: Ron Paul's position on the Threat of Criminal Conspiracies. But you didn't, as you hold "Radical Islam" responsible.

radical fundamentalist Muslims, Jews and Christians are seemingly intent on bringing about the destruction of mankind via nuclear holocaust. We are all too polite to say or do anything about it!

Actually,, you missed some.
Lucifarians,, who often masquerade as all of the above. And who's goal it is to dominate the entire world.

It's not about political correctness.
