Which of the following statements would an isolationist MOST agree with? * A. “If the United States expands it is nothing short of imperialism. To annex the territories of Cuba or the Philippines would not only be unwise, it would violate the very principles of self-determination on which this nation is founded.”
B. “Southeast Asia is too important to be abandoned. The United States must maintain a presence in the Philippines if it hopes to protect its national interest in the years to come.”
C. “The Philippines is half a world away. We should fight, instead to maintain a presence in Cuba and the Caribbean.”
D. "We must build up our military. Any conflict in Europe is a conflict that will eventually affect us in the United States. Let us not invite war; but us be prepared should it insist on knocking on our door.”
