I stopped reading when the idiot said that noninterventionism has served America pretty well in the last four hundred years.
Country is less than 250 years old. It also has very few periods of not being involved in interventionism. We fought major wars every thirty years on average in this country. So much for noninterventionism.
America has been interventionist for only a century, since Woodrow Wilson revealed the blessings of messianic democracy for all, whether you want it or not. Have we learned anything from the catastrophe we unleashed in the middle east. I doubt it. The national religion of American exceptionalism blinds most of us.
