Implementing Foreign Policy

There have been several occasions throughout American history when the United States government was involved in the affairs of a foreign nation. What circumstances do you believe warrant U.S. involvement in the affairs of another country? What level of involvement is necessary? What are the consequences of not getting involved? Consider these questions and write five to seven sentences as a response.

Post your responses to these questions in the discussions area. Then, return to the topic several times over the next few days to read your coursemates' posts. Reply to at least two of them, making sure to ask questions and encourage further conversation.
