Message: Entry: Say It Loud: Isolationist-Proud! Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/say_it_loud_isolationist_and_proud#14227 Post contents: Mr. Lewenberg wrote, We fought a Quasi War with France to protect our independence, a series of conflicts with Barbary Pirates, and took on Britain in 1812. From the moment we declared independence, we were an empire, controling the native tribes. These were either tolerated or displaced brutally. But this is what isolationism is. Fighting for ones own interests only. If we are attacked then we fight to preserve our own selfish interests wether they be defending shipping from piracy, conscription, or having an internal policy for dealing with native tribes.
