@Silverchild79,
it wouldn't be pre-emptive, in that situation it would be preventive, as in preventing WWIII
BTW, it's kind of funny Paul said during the debate that those who thought leaving Iraq would cause chaos were wrong when just this week the Iranian PM said "Once the US leaves Iraq we will fill the void".
It's like the other player at the card game has just shown his hand and Paul continues to wrongly think they're bluffing.
How about Ron Paul wanting to do away with the CIA and FBI, yeah that won't leave us open to another attack...
Paul has some great individual ideas, but his overall policy is a car wreck
