And we ran an isolationist policy all the way up to Pearl Harbor. How did that work out.
I would stay away from blanket statements about whether interventionism or isolationism is better. The real world of policy making is much more complicated than that. We need common sense, wisdom and a sense of proportion when deciding how deeply to get involved in various problems around the world.

And of course when you assess the impacts of our interventionist policy in the middle east on its own then there is not much to defend.
The original argument was brought up because I wanted to get out of the middle east because its been nothing but a **** show for us. It was responded to with the typical leftist comment of 'What about Israel' as if they are some evil entity as opposed to the most open democracy in all the middle east.
So aside from the fact that the Jewish People should be protected at all times because nobody has been more persecuted over throughout time; We should support an open and free democracy at all times against the tyranny of the middle eastern governments.
But sure - Continue on this Israel is bad track. Makes you look real tolerant to freedom.
