Ron Paul Institute’s McAdams talks Syria, Vladimir Putin and John McCain’s assessment of the rebels
With the situation in Syria ever-changing and fluid, and a number of unexpected events coming out of it plastered in the media nearly daily, it’s increasingly more difficult to wrap your head around all this.
To help clear things up and give his thoughts on Syria and the events surrounding it, the Executive Director for the Ron Paul Institute of Peace and Prosperity, Daniel McAdams joined us Saturday, Sept. 21 on Dispatch Radio (Listen below).
During the interview McAdams summarized the recent events, discussed Vladimir Putin and some in the US “childish” response to his Op-Ed, questioned the credibility of John McCain and his so-called “expertise” on the composition of the Syrian rebels and the lack of evidence provided by the United States government of who used chemical weapon.
According to the Ron Paul Institute of Peace and Prosperity website, Daniel McAdams served as the foreign affairs, civil liberties, and defense policy advisor to U.S. Congressman Ron Paul, MD (R-Texas) from 2001 until Dr. Paul’s retirement at the end of 2012. From 1993-1999 he worked as a journalist based in Budapest, Hungary, and traveled through the former communist bloc as a human rights monitor and election observer.
