Isolationism a la Pat Buchanan is just sticking your head in the sand and thinking nohahahaha else can see you.
What we need to do is be responsibly and wisely involved in world affairs. The problem is that you can't just go and shoot the bad guys. There are millions of them, and they have children. It only works if you slaughter the entire race, and I don't think anyone wants that, right? Most of the problems in Yugoslavia, Iraq and other hot spots can be traced down to artificial national borders drawn up by western powers after wars that are hotly resented by the people living in those countries.
That's probably getting a little too complicated for spaghetti western fans though, I can see your eyes glazing over from here.
