Maybe Ron Paul could help him out with that one. He began questioning the wisdom of those wars back in the 60s, when he was in the Air Force. Meanwhile, Buchanan was an aide in the Nixon White House and, as far as I know, supportive of the Vietnam War.

In any case, it would be nice to see someone like Buchanan revisit the policy of Communist containment. If he changed his mind, he could convince many others to change their minds, too. So I also second the request.

I second the request for Pat to write a book on the Domino Theory as a bogus justification for the Cold War's Korea and Vietnam.

"It is untrue that I or anyone else in Germany wanted war in 1939. It was wanted and provoked solely by international statesmen either of jewish origin or working for jewish interests."
