Ron Paul:  Unfit To Be President
By Donald A. Moskowitz

Ron Paul disavowed knowledge of anti-Israel, possibly anti-Jewish, anti-black and anti-gay views expressed in his newsletters in the 1980s and1990s, but I assume he knew the contents of his newsletters.  He was the editor.

A 1987 issue stated Israel is “an aggressive, national socialist state”, and another newsletter about the 1993 World Trade Center bombing stated “whether it was a setup by the Israeli Mossad, -----, or was truly a retaliation by the Islamic fundamentalists, matters little.”

Paul believes the U.S. should allow Israel to be independent, which is code for the U.S. to cut off foreign aid to Israel.  Paul said Iran is not a dangerous country and we should not be concerned with Iran’s nuclear development program.

A 1990 newsletter was critical of this country creating the holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  In 1992 Paul’s political report about the Los Angeles riots said “Order was only restored in L.A. when it came time for the blacks to pick up their welfare checks.”

Paul accepted a campaign donation, and posed with Don Black, a neo-nazi white supremacist.

Paul’s newsletters and his positions on Israel and Iran indicate he is not fit to be President.
