Should the international community be selective when it comes to intervening or not intervening in international crises?

This is more of a debatable topic

we should be in all international affair’s and crisis. These crisis’ will affect us on not only a global level but also our economic level. An example think about how gas prices rose up and we shut down our oil Riggs for environmental reasons. we were running on imports from other nations. We were not independent as a nation; we use to be self reliant as to why gas prices around in new York was $3 per us gallon now it’s up to about $6 U.S. per gallon. If you went elsewhere they were already up to 6 dollars a gallon sometimes more but now it’s almost 10 dollars in some places which is insane !
People saw $6 at the pump and were outraged. People complained about how gas doubled in price in less than a year
Think about when the United States was in its early development it went through a period of isolation and they stopped their isolation once they saw the “iron curtain” sweeping across the globe with its red blanket. ( this was known as the Cold War )
Since then we’ve had our hands in foreign diplomatic relations and crisis intervention.
We’ve had many casualties as a result but I believe the ends justifies the means.

You can use current politics as references with the economy and how such an impact was created after we “sanctioned” the Russians.
