Why The Neutralist? The term Isolationist implies a narrow Fortress America outlook and is used as an epithet. The term Neutralist does not indicate someone hiding out from the world. No one calls the Swiss isolationists. The Wilsonian world view is old, tired and wrong. Our interventions have been less and less successful and now the failure can no longer be covered up.

Avoiding Aegospotami

 The Z Man has an interesting piece at Taki's Magazine The Last War for the Neocons .   Since the Peloponnesian War, many have considered wars between two major powers as epic life and death struggles.

The Ukrainian War is seen as this as no one with an above average IQ and some tether to reality sees it as anything but a war between the big Us and Them.

What I got out of Z's article, is what, for better or worse, I get out of most them. It wasn't worth it, and didn't have to happen.

As usual, projecting further, we could do ourselves a big favor and leave NATO and come home.

Aegospotami was the last battle of the Peloponnesian War.
