The U.S. Senator (R-Ky.), who is already being touted as a 2016 Republican presidential candidate, was recently appointed to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and is showing some strong Woodrow Wilson-style isolationist tendencies.
Either I shifted to an alternate universe, or the author of this doesn't know that Woodrow Wilson was an internationalist behind the League of Nations.
Cutting foreign aid to Israel and the Arabs would help Israel.

Wilson originally campaigned on an isolationist platform then immediately jumped into a literal empire building platform. He had a famous statement regarding forcing trade through the barrel of a gun. He wasn’t an isolationist, he just played one during the campaign.

Sen. Paul points out that Egypt under control of the Muslim Brotherhood is buying 200 Abrams tanks from America this year and is worried that those tanks along with F-15’s maybe used against Israel.
