I was speaking of the author of the article you found to be so profound and his countrymen. Aussies use to be very independent and proud, now they have become just like their Euro-trash ancestors. If you want the US to become isolationist, be prepared to fight a war on your own turf, we have men and material stationed all over the world to prevent that kind of thing. I'm guessing you've never been in the military, most who have aren't nearly as ignorant as you.
The author of the article is considered right-wing down here (I live in Australia). Australia is independent and proud, and a lot more free than the US (IMO).
If the US wants to be the world police, then act like a humane, honest and upright policeman. One thing I can't stand is that some of your countrymen/women seem to have this attitude of "Yeah, well we are the good guys, although sometimes we have to do bad things". To which I reply, "Bollocks". You don't have to continually interfere in other country's business...
