I love Tucker, but I disagree with the camp within conservatism that believes the U.S. should never intervene in events beyond our own soil. The U.S. Navy and Marines had their genesis in traveling across the Atlantic to fight the Islamic Barbary pirates, who were interfering with international shipping. So even in the early days of this nation, the need to protect America’s interests anywhere on the globe was well recognized. In today’s world, where nuclear weapons can severely damage the U.S., if not end it, within minutes, it is vital that the U.S. eliminate developing threats before they can threaten us (Iran is a prime example).
What these isolationist conservatives are failing to do is to make a distinction between legitimate intervention and allowing the U.S. military to serve as the police force for the globalists. There’s a big difference, and the two are not one in the same.

I’m Isolationist in that we should get out of all International Orgs. But when our interests are threatened, we should be ferocious.
