Why is George Washington's farewell address not applicable to today?

George Washington's Farewell Address emphasized neutrality - he had avoided being involved in the French Revolution, although the Treaty of Paris which had America and France bound as allies should brought America to support France, for he and the other Federalists feared that the European countries were "dangerous" to the weak new nation, while the Democratic Republicans felt the French Revolution was regrettable but necessary. This establishment of neutrality as an early theme of foreign policy can not be applied to today, for we are currently involved with many other countries. We have troops currently in Iraq, as well as many small groups of troops stationed in different countries worldwide. This straying of Washington's original foreign policy goal is why it is not applicable to today.
