Before 1950 the USA was a loved and respected country. We minded our own business and tended to our own affiars. (Excluding Central/South America were we have always meddled). I can somewhat for given our leaders for being interventionist during the cold war. You do what you got to do. But there is no excuse now and we would be wise to return to our pre Cold War policy of intervention ONLY when American lives or property are at risk.
