Rand Paul recently released a statement on his position regarding Israel. He states that the U.S. and Israel have a 'special relationship' and 'common values'. He states that he would cut foreign aid to anyone who threatens Israel, yey makes no mention of cutting aid to Israel. Constantly referring to Israel as 'her', Paul remarks that Israeli military is among the 'bravest' in the world. Included in Paul's statement is the seemingly obligatory admonishment of Iran. Such rhetoric has won Paul the endorsement of James Dobson, Sarah Palin, and PNAC ('new Pearl Harbor') signatory Steve Forbes. Aligning oneself with such neoconservatives and zionists makes one question whether the small government rhetoric the younger Paul espouses can be sustained in actual practice.The American Spectator ran an April article entitled Rand Paul and Israel' which notes Rand's differences from his father Ron, and includes the full text of Rand's policy statement.

Doubtful. Ron Paul wants to completely stop all military aid to Israel if that tells you anything.

It would be more accurate to say that Ron Paul wants to end all foreign aid, military or domestic, to all governments. That just happens to include Israel (and Egypt and the Palis).

The media and the neocons always paint this as being about aid to Israel but it is about all aid. Ron Paul doesn't believe in taking money from taxpayers and shipping it overseas. About 80% of the American public consistently supports exactly that policy. It's the Beltway that seeks to distort this and to ignore the public and try to call Ron Paul crazy for accurately representing the public.

I'm not trying to chew you out or anything. It's just that we shouldn't repeat the distortions of the media template against anyone like Ron Paul who stands up to the empire.
