Rand said he would have voted for a declaration of war against Afghanistan and against one against Iraq.
The choice bit is an interesting dilemma the libertarian "movement" faces. Some say the state's intrusion into a woman's bodily automonomy is unacceptable. Others say a fetus has liberties too and protecting those is one of those few justified uses of government power.
But, to your "why", the reason people are interested in him is because he speaks truthfully about the collusion between corporations and the government, and because he opposes an interventionist foreign policy.
