So to me, it looks like Paul wants Iran to attack us? And then you don't think we'll strike back???
How did you come to that conclusion ?
if they attack us they will be crushed and it would be close to WW3. what makes you think they would be that incredibly stupid?

With sanctions Iran is pissed but has no money
Without sanctions Iran is a terrorists fundraiser.
There is every indication that Iran will attack us or Israel. Warnings from not just our gov't btw. To not take the threats seriously is foolish. Sanctions are the wrong way to go, but in this situation, its the lesser of two evils because the other option is war!!!!

Ron Paul is worst than Judas and Benedict Arnold put together, I wouldn’t vote for him if he were the last person on earth, how dare he question our great government!
I demand to see his birth certificate !
They aren't working because they are totally bogus and the US isn't the boss of the world. And actually placing sanctions like these on Iran is an act of war, it only provokes anger and violence. The US is the antagonist here, exactly like RP states. There's nothing "deflectionary" about it. If you wanted to avoid a god damn war then you would just leave them alone and stop poking the god damn angry bear. For christ sakes your logic really is non-existent...

The thing is....They aren't stopping!
The sanctions aren't working, but it's a deflection away from war because Obama doesn't want to start WWIII.
