“Iran doesn’t have a bomb. There’s no proof. There’s no new information regardless of this new report [IAEA report], and for us to overreact and to talk about bombing Iran, that’s much more dangerous.”-Ron Paul, U.S. Representative from Texas
Presidential candidate Ron Paul made that statement on CBS’s Face the Nation. But the interviewer, Bob Schieffer, tried his darnedest to make Ron Paul look unAmerican, and the interview really came across as Ron Paul bashing.
Schieffer stated: “No one has suggested, in the U.S. government, that we are going to bomb Iran. What they have said is we’re going to impose very tough sanctions. You have said you’re against sanctions.”
Paul replied: “Yeah, because sanctions are the initial steps to war…”
If you take political science courses on war then you’ll learn that sanctions are the first step towards war.
Ron Paul then questioned Schieffer’s statment that “no one” in our government wants to bomb Iran: “…if your saying that nobodies suggesting it why don’t you listen to the debates, I mean listen to some of the other candidates…” At that point Schieffer cuts Paul off, claiming that he is listening to the debates.
A great example is another Republican candidate, Newt Gingrich, who, on November 12, called for the assassination of Iranian scientists (something the Israeli Mossad has already done).
Schieffer admits that candidates, including Mitt Romney, has made such suggestions, but he says “the government” hasn’t made such statements.
Paul then blasts Schieffer: “Obviously they [U.S. government] haven’t said that, but the implication is that nothing is off the table. You’ve heard them say that!”
Schieffer replies: “Well yes, alright, lets move on then.”
Yes, people of the Untied States, lets move on away from the mainstream, entrenched, warmongering, working class enslaving Elites! Vote against any candidate that sounds mainstream, and Ron Paul sure isn’t mainstream!
