Al-Qaeda Rules in 'Liberated' Libya

Saturday April 26, 2014

How's liberated Libya doing these days? As Eli Lake of the Daily Beast reported this past week, a secretive military base established by US special forces to train their Libyan counterparts to fight terrorism has been overtaken...by terrorists!

How is it possible that an al-Qaeda associated group took over a US-secured base in Libya, where the fight was supposedly against terrorism? The answer is that the US had long been working with al-Qaeda to foment a coup against Gaddafi. It should be of little shock, then, that after the "liberation" of Libya islamic extremism rather than liberal democracy broke out all over.

Time to Attack Kuwait?

Saturday April 26, 2014

President George W. Bush defined post-9/11 US doctrine when he said, "either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." Kuwait, it seems, is with the terrorists.

According to an article in today's Washington Post, Kuwait is "the leading source of funding for al-Qaeda-linked terrorists fighting in Syria’s civil war." The oil-rich sheikdom has funneled hundreds of millions of dollars to train and equip the allies of those who attacked the US on 9/11. These groups are now fighting to establish militant Islamic extre

Ron Paul on The Authoritarian State

Friday April 25, 2014

Waco and Bundy Ranch standoffs, eavesdropping on American citizens, forcing Americans to purchase insurance, regime change overseas -- has the US become an authoritarian state? Speaking with Charles Goyette, Ron Paul says that, sadly, we are already there. In a republic, the job of government is to protect liberty, he adds, but unfortunately the US government is instead focused on exercising its power over people.

Judge Napolitano on BLM's Unconstitutional Texas Land Grab

Friday April 25, 2014

RPI Board Member Judge Andrew Napolitano discusses the federal government's latest land grab --  this time the BLM is eyeing 90,000 acres on the Texas/Oklahoma border. Says the Judge, the BLM is flouting a previous Supreme Court decision that settled the two states' border dispute, demanding that the 90,000 be transfered to federal control.

Ron Paul: 'Why Are We Droning Yemen?'

Thursday April 24, 2014

With news this week that US drones have killed 55 more people in Yemen, Ron Paul is concerned that US drone policy is only making the US position on the Arabian peninsula worse, is only making us more hated, and is only boosting al-Qaeda recruitment in the area.

In his latest video for the Ron Paul Channel, Dr. Paul points out that lately the US constantly lectures Russia and its president, Vladimir Putin, on Ukraine, saying that violating the sovereignty of another country is not the way people and countries should act in the 21st century. It sounds good, says Dr. Paul, but what about the US doing the same thing in Yemen? What about the continuation of drone warfare?

Ron Paul and Pat Buchanan With Charles Goyette: What a Show!

Friday April 18, 2014

Nevada and Ukraine are on the meny when Ron Paul and Pat Buchanan join Charles Goyette in this week's podcast. What a double-header! 

First up, Dr. Paul and Charles Goyette speak in detail about the recent Bundy ranch standoff in Nevada. 

Dr. Paul discusses the tragedy of the commons, where a seeming paradox reigns: when everybody owns something (through the government) in reality nobody really owns it and nobody can really use it. At that point, he says, the special interests come in and take over and manipulate the use of the land to their advantage.

Ron Paul on 'The Independents' — But Why The Blindside?

Thursday April 17, 2014

RPI Chairman Ron Paul appeared on the Fox Business program "The Independents" last night to discuss the recent standoff between a Nevada rancher and the federal government. Dr. Paul again expressed his support for people standing up to federal government abuses and noted that he was very pleased that although there were plenty of guns present on both sides, none were used. It was a small victory, he said, but he warned that federal officers may well return, because, as he put it, "authoritarians will be authoritarians" and the federal government hates to back down.

Washington's Outrageous Ukraine Double Standards

Saturday April 12, 2014

The Washington foreign policy establishment is furious. Protesters in eastern Ukraine, who feel threatened by the US-backed government in Kiev that has cancelled Russian-language television programming and installed oligarchs to rule over them, have poured out into main squares in many major eastern Ukrainian cities. Some have stormed government buildings and taken control of them. They favor a more federalized Ukraine, where more political decisions are made locally rather than dictated from the unelected rulers in Kiev.

Ron Paul: The Senate CIA Report And Torture

Saturday April 12, 2014

Ron Paul again joins Charles Goyette in a weekly podcast providing insight on the most critical issues of the day. Dr. Paul and Mr. Goyette discuss the Senate Intelligence Committee report on the abuses of the CIA. But how many of the sordid details of this report will ever see the light of day, asks Goyette. 

Dr. Paul believes they will not allow us to see much of the report, but what he really wonders is whether there will be any evidence that the CIA has really given up on the idea that torture is beneficial. Also, he points out that the leadership of both political parties have not had really strong objections to the CIA's torture programs, though he strongly feels that this torture has done far more harm than good.

Ron Paul: US Threatens Challengers to Dollar Hegemony

Friday April 11, 2014

In a commentary available to view from his Ron Paul Channel, RPI Chairman Ron Paul explains how the US has targeted any country that threaten to use currencies other than dollars with which to conduct international commerce. In Libya, Iraq, Iran, and elsewhere, says Dr. Paul, challenge the dollar as world reserve currency and you will risk regime change or outright invasion by the US military. Russia's threats to explore a barter or other systems that challenge the US dollar may well be behind the US push to apply sanctions and place NATO on a war footing, he says.
