“Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton participated in a public forum with veterans on Wednesday night, describing how they’d defeat Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

Interventionism is killing innocent people. And the neocons wonder why foreigners hate the federal government and there is blowback.
George Washington outlined the only moral foreign policy in his Farewell Address: no entangling alliances and commerce with all. In addition, the federal government should not be “exporting democracy” and being the policeman of the world.

Or “ally” in the Middle East…With allies like the Saudis who need enemies?
