Foreign Policy at the Debate

Thompson: Keep our absolute trust in Musharraff.
Romney: Same as Thompson.
Huckabee: Question Musharraff and the spending of US aid, but keep ultimate trust. Israel is our only ally and we cannot allow them to stand alone.
Paul: Maybe we could have avoided this and last Gulf War if we had left them alone - allow them to make their own decisions. If we want to defend Israel, why sell weapons to the Arab nations?
Giuliani: Pressure Musharraff, but keep trust. Certainly defend Israel to the fullest.


So, the only person to say we need to leave and let live is Ron Paul. And really should we trust Israel and other nations as much as we do (at least with the billions, if not trillions, of dollars sent in aid)? Look, if we are in danger, we would need to get involved. However, military action should not be the first thought. EVER.
Either way, let's FOCUS ON THE PROBLEMS AT HOME NOW.
