RyM3rC Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 It's really nothing more than a return to Washington's "Leave us the fuck alone, and we won't stick our noses in your shit, either." Going back through history, it wasn't until the Spanish-American War of 1898 that the US did anything noteworthy on the world stage, and even after WWI, isolationism remained the guiding principle of American diplomacy. Not until after WWII, where we were the only industrial nation standing against those dirty Soviets, did we begin "flexing our muscles." It's a very different world now than it was 110 years ago. Isolationism might work if instead of on different continents we were on different planets. Perhaps if we build a giant impenetrable bubble... but then how would the Mehicans get in?
