Nationally Reviewing Realism - The American Conservative

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : Now, rivals with naval powers close or superior to our own seek to carve out spheres of influence independent of American hegemony: "China would like to claim the South China Sea, Russia wants to claim the Arctic Ocean, because they don't like the idea not only of free trade that they cannot control, they also don't like the idea of freedom, the idea that comes transmitted, the sea has become a vector for the transmission of a philosophy that's injurious to their interest."
47% : He worries that "recently a type of neo-isolationism has enjoyed a resurgence among the careless and the historically challenged -- and not just on the left where such thinking has really been customary for at least 50 years but also oddly, I think, among some who call themselves a type of conservative."The first type of "neo-isolationism" that Travers fails to understand "seems to suggest that this conflict is somehow Yookraine's fault for seeking to join a defensive alliance to protect it against violent aggression.

42% : Abrams is hesitant to give too much credit to those "most people":There is a form of isolationism that is, I think, particularly pernicious and it is one that talks down what is being defended.
41% : It's sort of a distinction between democracy promotion and defense of existing democracies and partners and allies against authoritarians whether they're in Beijing or Moscow or Tehran.
37% :Abrams goes on to explain that NATO member states' failure to meet military spending requirements proves the alliance posed no actual threat to Russia.
30% : And that's one of the, really I think, one of the most awful forms of isolationism....
