Remember that whole Ron Paul newsletter thing?  Well, it may be repeating itself.  Ron Paul's "Institute for Peace and Prosperity" published an article entitled, "Charlie Hebdo Shootings: False Flag?"  And, wow, it even crazier than you would expect.  A few money quotes:

So, Ron Paul publishes articles by conspiracy crackpots who are also 9/11 truthers and holocaust deniers.  Interesting, eh?

You forgot:

"it is practically a certainty that the CIA has more control over French intelligence than does the President of France"

Ron Paul's Institute has the same dark figures from his newsletter days. I unfollowed it on Facebook due to the endless amounts of Russian propaganda. I think Paul spends more time on his internet network than he does the "Institute", which is nothing more than just another crackpot think tank.

By the way, the author was a high ranking official in the Reagan Treasury Department. Interesting side note.

If you're not a 9/11 Truther or a holocaust denier or a crazy person, why would you attach your name to this institute?  I think sane people actually go out of their way to not be associated with 9/11 truthers and holocaust denial.  When you add this to his previous effort at publishing disgusting ideas, you have to really wonder what Ron Paul thinks but doesn't actually say because it's too controversial.  The same goes for his son.

As much as they fight each other on the internet libertarians don't care about crackpot theories from their associates since they value the individual sooo much. Their inability to knock some sense into their staffers is probably a big reason they don't have many ideological associates in government.

Is there anyway we could find information on their funding? I have a feeling that the RPI is nothing more than a think tank version of Russia Today.
