Comment on Mr. Gary Bauer — The Supposed Christian as Slanderer, Israel-Firster, and War-Monger by Rhett1

"War-mongering crazed 'Christian' " is an apt description of Goofy Bauer and all his ilk who believe in the unBiblical Great Levitation. Such "Christians" harken back to the scorched-earth bloodbaths of the Old Testament and seem totally unaware of the gentle New Testament.

Comment on Fearing the Constitution’s return, the Washington Post launches a panicky, sophomoric attack on Dr. Paul by Rhett1

The major catalyst for criticism of Ron Paul appears to be the fear that he will let Israel
defend itself because the U.S. has had it up to here with that sh***y little country.

Comment on On America’s horizon — A far larger war with the Muslim world by RageforOrder

Thank you Mr.Scheuer for the outstanding article.Here is a question for you,if you have the time……I am not comfortable with Iran getting a nuke,is there a way to stop Iran from getting a nuke besides war? I understand that they are a sovereign nation and it is hypocritical of us to demand that they aren't allowed to have nukes……while we and Israel have them.It is tough to convince those leaning towards neoconservatism that Dr.Paul has the correct answer.They think he is just naive and a pascivist…….I really don't think that his idea of offering friendship will work,but it may have a better chance than our current threatening and sanctioning policies.Is there another way?

The astounding ignorance of our political leaders is exceeded only by the naive wishful-thinking it produces. We need some truly adult leaders.

Comment on Al-Qaeda wins no matter who prevails in the NYC mosque debate by masmanz

I am impressed that you found time to respond here, I should have checked it earlier. By spectacular victories I meant: Creation of Pakistan, liberation of Libya, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Jordan and other places from various Western forces. What is a tiny mosque in comparison to all those events.

Again, thanks for your response. I agree with your last paragraph, but it is not just the presidents and the politicians, the news media actually shares most of the blame.

Comment on Interventionists ready a media lynching for Ron Paul by RageforOrder

Thanks for the article.I have never understood why a whole lot of "conservatives" support Israel so much.It just doesn't make sense.Take Glenn Beck for example…..he has so many good logical positions then he just loses all logic on his support for Israel.He hates Woodrow Wilson yet he follows the same thinking "of making the world safe for democracy," as an excuse for the support.Hate to go all conspiritorial on you,but do Israel and the Jews control the media? Why do all these people seem only to care about Israel no matter how many of our troops are killed? Is it some kind of mis-interpretation of the Bible? The majority of the support of Israel seems to come from the Christian-right.Hope you have the time to answer…..thanks

Comment on On Comments to the Site, Armed Rebellion, Dr. Rand Paul, and Israel-First by Brian Chapman

Hey Mike,

I’m a big fan of yours, but I noticed what I thought might be an errata in the Bin Laden book. I now see it’s also in this post: the reference to “Victor Hanson Davis”. The name is Victor Davis Hanson.

Comment on Intervention’s costs vs Non-intervention’s benefits by Ryan S.

Great commentary as usual, Mike.

One thing I've noticed, as a college student, is that the younger generation tends to be much more favorable to these "humanitarian" interventions than those who came before. They seem to have no concept of minding one's own business, not wasting other people's money being a global do-gooder, etc.

Specifically as it relates to the Middle East, and seeing how much of our historical interventionism there has been rooted in maintaining regional stability so oil & gas can flow freely: it should be each American's pragmatic and moral imperative to do everything she/he can to limit one's per capita usage of petroleum products, as well as insure American energy independence.

For example, rather than mindlessly flitting about in our cars travelling to work, vacations, our kids soccer's games, et al – we would do well to think long and hard about so carelessly doing so – our personal behavior's geopolitical impact on our foreign policy, not to mention destroying our envrionment.

I find that among the guiltiest are not only our so-called leaders, but ourselves.
