Obviously i didnt mean NK troops here. But hitler and then stalin both had designs on world domination and for stalin, NK was at point in asia. In your world we really dont need a foreign policy at all. When the going gets difficult you want out. Now i agree with your point on being beware of overinvolvement but not non-involvement. Give me a break--meet me half way. I understand. When Hitler decided to take on the world, we had to fight him. It made perfectly good sense. And I understand that we have to maintain a nuke arsenal so long as China and Russia maintain their's. But why oh why do we have to have soldiers placed all over the world at a $500k pop per soldier per year? Why oh why do we keep spending so much money on redundant weaponry? Defense spending has become a scam.....in many ways, much worse than pork spending.
