Republicans abstaining from YouTube debates
Real American:
Ron Paul is an idiot. The US foreign policy is what is caussing Islamic terrorism?? Newsflash....Islamic terror is a widespread phenomenon. Muslims are committing terror across the globe....US, UK, Spain, Russia, Phillipines, Indonesia, Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Israel, etc. Hell, Canada broke up a huge terror cell last year of Muslims plotting attacks in that country. How many bases does Canada have in the Middle East? How many troops do they have in Iraq?
If the US disappeared tommorow, Islamic terror would still thrive. And that fact alone proves that Ron Paul is dellusional.

Paul was simply restating what the intelligent reports said. You and most republicans make it seem like Paul just pulled the theory out of his ass.
The attack in Canada was a joke. Most of the punks arrested were a bunch of stupid kids that couldn't blow up a balloon much less a part of the city. I knew some of them personally, and they are all being quietly released with no charges. These weren't major terrorists, they were just arabic versions of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.
And Tech; Guliiani may have had the crowd for the first few seconds but Paul was taking them back. One of the major reasons everyone just ignores him in the media. The other major part of his campaign that will make every republican, independant, and many democrats turn their heads and listen is the fact that he plans on eliminating income tax.

You are trying to communicate with someone whose mental age seems to surpass no more than 5 shallow, you will have to dumb it down a little more than that!. By the way, what was the deal with the people arrested in canada then? i heard it was a sting operation where basicaly the RCMP dropped fertiliser off and when they were in receipt of it, they arrested them.

We are talking about the presidency of the United States....let's be a little more sophisticated.

I'm not saying their wasn't any intent in any of the terror suspects, but intent and intelligence are two different things. This wasn't a group of deadly terrorists. This was a group of outcast nerds who thought it'd be cool to play Taliban. There was a far greater chance of these guys accidentally killing themselves trying to make a bomb than there was of them successfully pulling off the intended crime. I'm not sure how many are still in custody and how many are out. There were two groups involved. One group was really trying to do it the other was just part of the same mosque. Most of those kids are being released or will be soon. The one kid I do know from around the neighborhood was released a couple months after. He said they just have you sit in a dark room with no lights and no communication with anyone and you just wait. In his case it was several weeks. I can only imagine how it feels after a year plus. I know the broter of one of the other guys in there and he hasn't spoken to his brother at all since he went in, and neither has his mother or father.
