Rand Paul slams Obama for 1967 Israel border demand as “arrogance unmatched”

rand-paulI was starting to wonder if Rand Paul was a nut like his father on foreign policy, and held anti-Israel views like his fathers. Turns out the son (Rand) is much wiser than the father (Ron). Rand Paul issued tje following statement regarding Obama’s speech on American-Middle Eastern policy, and he didn’t coward out like most Jewish Democrats in the Senate and House have done so far.

“Peace from weakness or peace from outside coercion of Israel is a fool’s errand. Unfortunately, the President today proved himself willing to play that fool.”

“Israel and her enemies have fought wars for the better part of the past 60 years. And terror-supporting countries in the region have spent the better part of those years feigning interest in peace while lobbing rockets across borders.”

“For President Obama to stand up today and insist that Israel should once again give up land, security and sovereignty for the possibility of peace shows an arrogance that is unmatched even in our rich history of foreign policy”

“If we could learn just one thing from our failures to impose policies on the Middle East over the years, it should be this: We aren’t very good at it.”

    Actually even RON PAUL condemned Obama’s speech about Israel.
    We have truly entered the bizzaro world when even Ron Paul starts standing by Israel…

    Nothing like having an incompetent fool in the Whitehouse to clarify peoples minds…
