Are these examples of staying in the chicken coop: U.S. aid to radical fundamentalists (including Bin Laden) in Afghanistan during the 1980s, the tilt in favor of Iraq during its war with Iran, the U.S. War with Iraq (the largest single military operation since WWII), a failed nation-building operation with U.S. troops in Somalia, Bosnia, and Haiti, U.S. bombing and the deployment of troops in Yugoslavia, deployment of U.S. troops to Macedonia, over a hundred billion dollars of aid to Israel since the 1940s, no-fly zones and the shooting down of Iraqi plans in Iraq for the last decade, U.S. bases in the Middle East, etc.?

Your revisionist theory that we have stayed in the Chicken Coop bears no relation to reality. Your policy of intervention certainly has been given a fair try and has failed.

Dude, wake the hell up! Interventionism was started when Soviets put nuke tipped rockets in service after Sputnik and continues today with Saddam invading Kuwait and support of international terrorism.

Was the WTC us intervening? Us proselytising unappologeticaly our sense of morals? You need to know the difference between Islam and Christianity, and your own breed of bipolar fear mongering on the altar of anti-interventionism.
