Michael Scheuer has been saying this for years. Anyone who doesn't know this by now is willfully ignorant.

The people of Libya, like the
The people of Libya, like the rest of the Arab world, are very pro-Palestinian. In the context of our current foreign policy, would it make sense to go into a country whose leader maintained peace with Israel, overthrow him, and allow the will of the people to decide its foreign policy? I don't think so. There is no way that we would have supported a "democratic" government in any Islamic-majority country without some very convincing assurances.
I've always thought that the Libyan war was planned in response to the overthrow of our dictator in Egypt. Libya is sparsely populated and very large. If Egypt falls into the hands of its people (God forbid!), the Zionists in our government would surely feel more comfortable with it being geographically surrounded by US military bases in the event that Egyptians seek justice for the Palestinians. Everyone knows that a democratic Middle East spells trouble for Israel, regardless of what they say publicly.

If you want to be accurate. The actual Russia Today video was posted earlier. This new one has been cut and edited to provide false information.

al'CIA'da, more info.
The video content on Ron Paul is very good.
Micheal Sheuer is ex CIA, and was chief of Bin Laden Unit, then he must surely know that al'qaida & bin-laden are the creation of CIA during the Soviet-Afghan war of 1980s. Even now they collaborate on many fronts.
MS is right on most counts in his interviews but he does not reveal cia's relation to the terrorist network. I posted a couple of links on another DP thread, it seems it is more relevant on this one. - re'posting -

“The most important element of a free society, where individual rights are held in the highest esteem, is the rejection of the initiation of violence.” Dr. Ron Paul
How will Ron use the military
I've been serving in the Navy for over 9 years now and have a rather diverse experience in 4 different warfare communities in 4 different geographic regions in my career. Along with that I've been involved in a lot of operational planning, so I'm pretty knowledgable about what the military does. I support Ron Paul, as I did in 2008, but I've always had a hard time understanding his foreign policy views. Perhaps it's because I've had enough experience to know just how vast and complex the issues are regarding foreign policy. Mr. Scheuer expresses some critical concerns in this interview, but like he said, we have become dependent upon the Middle East. In a Ron Paul presidency, I'd like to know how would we be able to phase out our dependency on the Middle East so that we can withdraw? Also, would it ultimately be in our best interest to withdraw? Certainly, a large part of the population in the Middle East embrace trade with the U.S., and we may be denied access to a large part of the region upon leaving. Also, how would he employ the military to ensure we remain manned, trained, and equipped to face threats closer to home? Would the Navy continue its round-the-clock deployments as is practiced now? Where would the Army be staged? How often would exercises be held for all levels of warfare? How would our intelligence services be employed so we can stay informed on political and social situations around the world so we aren't blindsided in the future? This isn't something to address comprehensively here, but they are some things to think about, and since 89 seconds wasn't enough time for Ron Paul to spell it out, I'm open to hearing what resources you'd all recommend. Thanks.
the answer is...
Much of the hatred in the middle east comes from 2 things. Our military all over the place, and our endless support for Israel which is a country that tortures, murders babies, shoots guided bombs at red cross vehicles, and runs bulldozers over protesters. America while having many jews, has no business siding with a religious defined country.
So, America should END all foreign aid and all military support to Israel. They have enough weapons already if they stop beating up 3rd world peoples they won't run out of them anytime soon.
Second, with the situation in saudi Arabia things are more complex. Its a long term dictatorsip HOWEVEr are those people really ready or capable of democracy? We should push on Saudis to begin to open up to a limited democracy and public referendums. But Saudi Arabi is ANOTHER religion defined nation with a religious police. As is Iran. We cannot in good conscience support these kinds of countries.
Instead, we should withdraw our military. Perhaps to just the bases in Qatar and Iraq. And keep a low profile. And end the drone attacks.
Secondly, we should begin trading with Iran as Ron Paul advocates. Trading partners become friends just look at us and Vietnam.
Finally, ONLY by reversing our immigration and halting almost all new immigration inflows and making it a felony for illegal imigration, ending the wrongly construed birthright citizenship, and LOWERING our population back down to 200 million does America have ANY HOPE WHATSOEVER of becoming energy independent. There simply are not enough energy resources within america to support 500 million or a billion people living the way we do in inefficient houses and no public transportation infrastructure.
Finally we need to support DEMOCRACY and OUR BILL OF RIGHTS not dictatorships and MUSLIMS NUTSO RELIGIOUS POLICE. Why didn't we give IRaq our constitution and bill of rights as a starting point? I mean these are the principles we believe in arent they? Instead they got some sharia law psyco madness from the 15th century going on there. Thats crazy!
Thanks for the reply
Thanks for the reply. I thought about it some more today, and I think it would be good if Ron Paul were to lay out a plan similar to what he did for the budget. Define certain things he would spend money on, define roles for the military branches and intelligence community, describe where he would leave a footprint in other countries and in the U.S. It would also be good to see what diplomatic initiatives he'd pursue in order to open up trade in parts of the world where absolute disengagement would risk losing access. For one, I do appreciate the fact that Ron Paul is a strong advocate for ensuring promises made to servicemembers are kept. Too many politicians who are willing to send troops into harm's way try to sneak out of paying for benefits they promised them! I know at least 2 people who were either denied benefits promised to them or forced to leave before retirement just so they wouldn't get retirement benefits. That's just plain dishonest, and Ron Paul's integrity is such that he won't do that.
I was greatly 'bothered' when
I was greatly 'bothered' when the previous adm ALSO bantered around the notion we were 'spreading democracy' when invading Iraq. Seems to be an arrogant posture on our part and extremely foolish... To think we can 'force democracy' on a people implies on the very face of it that we are NOT talking about a Democratic Republic! Just another kind of Govt FORCED on citizens by some one/some kind of DICTATORSHIP. Same thing in Egypt...and Libya and will be etc etc etc ad nauseum. In my opinion, is a Ruse OUR Govt has used to cover an invasion of a Sovereign Country when we had no RIGHT to be doing so...
