As a follow-up on my previous comment, here are some of Paul’s statements regarding Israel’s blockade of Gaza. Now you must remember that Gazagets all its supplies, such as food etc., through Israel! The blockade is designed to prevent weapons being smuggled in!

Here’s what that fool Paul has to say, with my own remarks in brackets:

“I think sanctions, embargoes and boycotts, preventing goods from going in, is actually an act of war…” [Sending rockets into Israel is an act of war!]

“I think it’s absolutely wrong to prevent people that are starving and having problems that are almost like in concentration camps and saying “yes we endorse this whole concept that we can’t allow ships to go in there in a humanitarian way”. [They’re not starving; they get all the food they need coming in throughIsrael!]

“I think it’s just terrible and I don’t think we should be part of it. Even though if we weren’t involved I would say nothing. So I think this would be a perfect opportunity to argue the case that, you know, “Israel, if you want to do this, you’re on your own. We’re not backing you up!”” [Paul just doesn’t understand the issues, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about!]

You're absolutyely correct. As a conservative who knows that Obama must be replaced if there's to be any hope, I am appalled at the whole spectacle. I disagree with you on Paul - not only is he not electable, his views on Israel are not acceptable...
