Just, which extremes can that principle reach? You won't abandon Israel, for example. North Korea is a threat to your country. You'd still want to fight a war on terror should terror manifest itself again.
The war on terror should be fought here. By that I mean we take military savings and we sink it into better screening of things coming in through our ports for instance. Plus a lot of people say terrorism is a direct result of our intervening in the Middle East. If they are correct, then our no longer intervening should dramatically reduce the threat of terrorism.
As far as N Korea, what exactly are they going to do?
