‘FALSE FLAG’ — Ron Paul Says Syrian Chemical Attack ‘Makes No Sense’

By Christian Datoc

Ron Paul claimed on Wednesday’s broadcast of “The Liberty Report” that all signs point toward Tuesday’s chemical attack in Syria being a false flag operation.

“Before this episode of possible gas exposure and who did what, things were going along reasonably well for the conditions,” the former Texas congressman stated. “Trump said let the Syrians decide who should run their country, and peace talks were making out, and Al Qaeda and ISIS were on the ru...

Syria Gas Attack: Assad's Doing...Or False Flag?

Just days after the US Administration changed course on Syrian President Assad, saying he could stay, an alleged chemical weapon attack that killed dozens of civilians has been blamed on the Syrian government.

Just Bring the Troops Home

By Jacob G. Hornberger

One of the most amazing things about US foreign policy is how so many American remain mired in the interventionist paradigm. Case in point: the Middle East. No matter how much a failure US interventionism has been in that part of the world, people simply cannot bring themselves to break out of the interventionist box. They remain convinced that the United States has no choice but to remain mired in the ongoing failure, death, and destruction in that part of the wor...

Want Civilized Life? Look To The Market, Not The Government

By Chris Rossini

Far too many Americans have an obsession with using government force to get the things that they want. Thankfully, they won't use force on their own. In other words, they won't kick in their neighbor's door while yelling "Pay for my healthcare!" Such behavior is still understood to be wrong and is avoided by the vast majority of people.

Yes, Let’s Allow The Syrian People To Decide For Themselves

By Ron Paul

Is common sense beginning to creep into US policy in the Middle East? Last week Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said that the longer-term status of Syrian President Assad would be “decided by the Syrian people.” The media reported this as a radical shift in US foreign policy, but isn’t this just stating what should be obvious? What gives any country the right to determine who rules someone else? Washington is currently paralyzed by evidence-free rumors that the Russians some...

Why Are We (Still) Meddling In Korea?

By Liberty Report Staff

Back in 2007, while campaigning to become president, Ron Paul sat down with Tim Russert. The topic of U.S. involvement in Korea came up. As President Trump sabre-rattles, it's not a bad idea for America to keep the following logic in mind: Transcription:

Ron Paul: “Troops in Korea? Since I’ve been in high school? It doesn’t make sense.”

Tim Russert: “Under President Paul, if North Korea invaded South Korea, would we respond?”

Ron Paul: “Why should we, unless the...
