"[America] does not go abroad
"[America] does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy...The fundamental maxims of her policy would insensibly change from liberty to force. She might become the dictatress of the world: she would be no longer the ruler of her own spirit." - John Quincy Adams, July 4th, 1821 [full text]
Obviously no one is listening to "Old Man Eloquent."
And this in the week Jimmy Carter wins the Nobel Peace Prize.
