Ron Paul Knows War

Ron Paul is the only candidate that understand­s the limits of military power and is able to discern when foreign policy dressed in reasonable sounding pronouncem­ents ends up being nothing more than the mass exterminat­ion of humans the other candidates laughingly refer to as peace.

War is the biggest centrally-planned and counter-productive government program ever devised. I have served as an officer in the military for 28 years and understand Army operations.  These plans are always counter-productive and involve massively profound unintended consequences that sequence and branch into results that destroy the social fabric and pervert every democratic institution upon which civil society rests, not just of the country that is being attacked, but also of the country that is doing the attacking. 

The house of cards the U.S. creates by installing puppet governments only remains standing so long as there is a never-ending commitment of U.S. foreign aid and American blood.  The end result is that we fracture and atomize a society that eventually solidifies into one where the people are violently anti-American.  Our hegmonic policies always eventually reach a point of diminishing returns regarding what advances American interests and begins to cultivate an anti-American movement that expands with exponential growth.  

We have truly seen the end results of American foreign policy on 9/11.  The people who run American foreign policy can not accept nor ever face that fact.  Ron Paul is also the only one who seems to understand that by doing more of the same we will end up with more terrorism, not less. Take this advice from someone who has studied history, economics and war for 28 years.  If we maintain our present course we will end up destitute and living under an oppressive police state, but I surmise at this point I am stating the blantantly obvious.
