Ron Paul posted a message on Facebook on Wednesday calling the September 11 terrorist attacks blowback for decades of US intervention in the Middle East. <\/p>\n

Were supposed to believe that the perpetrators of 9\/11 hated us for our freedom and goodness, Paul wrote on the 12th anniversary of the attacks. In fact, that crime was blowback for decades of US intervention in the Middle East. And the last thing we needed was the governments response: more wars, a stepped-up police and surveillance state, and drones. <\/p>\n

Paul is well known for his libertarian ideology and opposition to U.S. military action abroad. He said last week that it would be historic if Congress voted against President Obamas plan for military strikes in Syria. His son, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, has been one of the most vocal opponents to U.S. action in Syria following the regimes alleged use of chemical weapons. <\/p>\n
