What did the US isolationists in the 1930s wish to avoid?

Isolationists thought that the US should avoid any foreign alliances. The traditional policy of the US since independence was not to get involved in foreign affairs (ie. European affairs). There was a very strong feeling in the US that American participation in World War I had been a mistake. Americans felt that the European powers remained greedy squabblers with little interest in the ideals of democracy and self-determination. It was felt that America gained nothing from the war, which had costs many soldiers' lives, and that the world was not a better place afterwards. The lesson that these isolationists drew from this was that it was futile for the US to get involved in other country's disputes, since that would only result in involving the US in faraway wars that would cost money and lives for no purpose.
