    Ah yes, post-breakup Yugoslavia and Libya, famously places where everything was great there was no violence until the West showed up.

    Iraq is a more legit example, since that was under false pretences, but like the other user noted most of NATO refused.

        Okay, but they definitely didn’t come into a place that was fine and make a mess.

        (And if something is wrong, and you can intervene, you should. It doesn’t matter who you are; that’s just morality)
