According to a new Pew Research/Council on Foreign Relations survey, isolationism is on the rise in the US: "Just as President Obama has outlined his broad strategy for Afghanistan and is pushing ahead with other global initiatives, the percentage of Americans who believe the U.S. should mind its own business and let other countries get along on their own has reached an all-time high . . . The survey found 49% of Americans holding that view. The previous highs were 41% in both 1995 and 1976. 44% in the poll disagreed."
