One assumes the OP is extrapolating from this that the blame is based on American foreign policy over the last 40 years or so; particularly with regard to our policy toward Israel and American involvement in the Region overall.Paul was discussing foreign policy when he said: Somebody said the other day on the Internet, if those Paul people had been in charge, Osama Bin Laden would still be alive.
The former presidential candidate countered with emotion: But you know what I think the answer is? So would the 3000 people [killed] on 9/11, be alive!
Where had libertarians been in charge of American foreign policy during that time with no involvement with Israel, with no American troops in various Gulf States, and with no American lead wars in the ME that OBL would still be in Egypt running the family business building buildings rather than blowing them up.
Cause we are the evil ones in the world????
No, because we keep screwing around in other nations business to the detriment of both.
Libertarian foreign policy is among the few redeeming principles of their dogma. And its not isolationism, its an intelligent, pragmatic approach keeping America safe while allowing other nations to address their own affairs as they see fit.
Libertarian policy is to smoke dope and kiss ass and hope the rectal fucking we get doesnt hurt to bad.
