Interventionism, ISIS, and Foreign Follies

Only weeks

after the Obama Administration requested $500 million to give to Syrian rebels, the Islamic State has spread across northern Iraq. In this episode, Ron Paul shares his thoughts on ISIS (the Islamic State), Syria, and the failure of U.S. foreign intervention. He also discusses 9/11 and what the U.S. government knew prior to the attacks.

From the conversation:

Our own government did more harm to the liberties of the American people than bin Laden did. He was a monster himself, but that was minor compared to the damage done financially, the people that have died. And here we are, 24 years, and we're still fighting a war in the pretense that had something to do with 9/11.
