Then, we become despised. Too often we have supported those who turn on us, like the Kosovars who aid Islamic terrorists, or the Afghan jihads themselves, and their friend Osama bin Laden. We armed and trained them, and now we’re paying the price.<br /> <br /> At the same time, we must not isolate ourselves. The generosity of the American people has been felt around the globe. Many have thanked God for it, in many languages. Let us have a strong America, conducting open trade, travel, communication, and diplomacy with other nations.</i><br /> <br /> Source: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/html/issue-War_fx.html<br /> <br /> This quote is useful because it makes clear that Ron Paul is a non-interventionist which does not equate to pacifism or isolationism, labels that are often used as a smear.<br /> <br /> Here’s a good blurb from Ron Paul describing his view on how American Foreign policy should be conducted:
