Ron Paul poses a series of "What If" questions challenging common assumptions about U.S. foreign policy and military intervention. He questions if policies like regime change, occupation of countries, and bombing of Pakistan fuel terrorist hatred and endanger national security. Paul suggests that wartime spending grows government, undermines liberty, and destroys the economy. He asks if diplomacy might be superior to military force in protecting America. Paul concludes that ignoring these concerns could lead to negative consequences, while addressing them could have no downside.
