I’ve heard this argument before, and its slightly disingenuous. Sure, the Iraqi people might be better off now that everything is all said and done, but that doesn’t mean the ends justify the means. Same way banning tobacco or HFCS would be good for America, but I can’t see many people here supporting that. People have rights, nations have sovereignty. Sometimes they do stupid things with rights, sometimes sovereign nations are assholes. But when that stupid is confined to their own homes or within their own borders, I support a hands off approach.
