Great interview with Ron Paul. Why is this guy not president?

He didn't stand because not enough people would vote for him.https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=87&...
Unfortunately when he did run for president in 2008 there were a lot more asleep people than now. As history has shown the sheeple fell for hope and change.
His son Rand is one of the few honest people left in D.C.
Since you're one of the few left on here that is awake, I was going to point you in the direction of the Liberty Report, however you already found it.

War or semi-war in Syria for the US, UK, France and others looks like it is just days or weeks away...
BBC Washington correspondent says it's a certainty and that we may even wake up in the morning to news of the first strikes. It's certainly a worrying development.
We are living in a time of so much disinformation and of revelations about the actions of the Americans. That coupled with the coincidence of the American statement that they were not prioritising the removal of Assad, then the chemical attack, now the about-turn, just leaves us wondering whether this strike is just or is a mistake.

I do find humans strange sometimes. If Assad had carpet bombed the place no one would have lifted a finger, there would have just been a shrug of the shoulders. But in using gas everyone is up in arms.
So it's not the killing of innocent women and children that seems to be the issue, but the type of death they endure.
Sometimes I feel like crying at our idiocy.

This exactly. So it's not the killing of innocent women and children that seems to be the issue, but the type of death they endure.

2 weeks ago, speaking to a colleague, I mentioned "Trump needs a TV War" preferably including Russia. Wag the dog style. Here we have it.
Double win for him, distraction from domestic political issues and bad press. He gets to show he is tough on Russia, after his administration's issues with Russian connections.
This is an ideal little incident, gets some video of missiles being launched, US military might in action, suitable stirring music and "team America F*ck yea, coming to save the mother'ucking world" on the TV.
He telegraphs the attack to Russia and by extension Assad, so damage is limited. He looks tough and Assad survives.
I hope this is where it stays. Entire justification for action is false but then reality TV is not about reality, it is about created perception.

k the world. Innocent people being bombed in their own country, their own homes, is just barbaric. So last century it's not true. We're utterly backward.On LBC Sir Michael Fallon, our Defence Secretary, just said that Iraq 'should be the blueprint for a new Syria' without Assad. Yes IRAQ!
Yesterday Boris said that there should be no action against Syria without involving the UN. Today our government came out in support of America's actions.
Do these guys just make st up as they go along?

I think they do.t up as they go along?Assad crossed a MAJOR red line: He was winning, and had to be stopped.
Before most conferences on Syria there's a chemical attack blamed on Assad.
No motive for Assad, but the 'rebels' (our tame terrorists) benefit 100%.
Remember Assad has no chemical weapons as we forced him to destroy them all after the last 'attack'.
No evidence of Sarin either, could have been Chlorine, but why sabotage your own victory?
The (obvious) result of this gas 'attack' is the US - a week after saying Assad can stay - demanding that Assad goes, illegally bombing an airfield used to fight ISIS followed swiftly by ISIS gaining ground and a few notches closer to war with Russia.
These predictable results were also based on rumour, no proof of anything, just the 'humanitarian' excuse they needed - while was added by Bill Clinton to the UNSC rules to allow the smashing up the middle east.
I also note that when 500+ children were murdered by the Israelis in Gaza - some in UN shelters - there wasn't a single sanction, no airfields were bombed, no calls for Bibi to go, not even a harsh word. So obviously 70 convenient Syrian kids (that we've been murdering with our 'rebel' proxy' are far more valuable than 500 Palestinians. The double standard is quite disturbing.
Anyone who thinks Assad was responsible is a retard or warmonger.
