I heard Ron Paul justifying the 9-11 attacks as well. Sorry. Ya'll can spin for your boy, but I sat right there and watched it.
His basic jist was that if we weren't over there interfering in the Middle East, terrorists wouldn't attack us. This plays right into his nonintervention, isolationist views that he is very clear about.
So we started it by getting in their business and defiling their soil with our presence. Therefore we had it coming.
He even specifically mentioned Iraq, which he would like us to abandon, and said that we'd been bombing them for 10 years (no wonder they're pissed). But the fact of the matter is that Saddam invaded another country, the UN (led by the Great Satan) kicked his butt back to his own turf, then HE refused to comply with the terms of cease-fire. So WHO'S fault is it that the US is at war with Iraq? Ron Paul says it's our fault and we should butt out.
I don't think he could have been any clearer.
