More Middle East trouble - Iraq again

Why blame the US for Iraq? It only invaded it twice and then occupied it. Surely it would have been in the current mess or worse if Saddam was still in charge.
Likewise with Libya; it was bound to be split to two countries under Qaddafi.
Oil played no role in either case.
And we wouldn't be saddled with Trump if the Greeks hadn't invented democracy. In addition, that damned US aid to Greece in 1946 kept it from joining the Communists and we even let them into NATO. Damn meddling USA. Greece would certainly have been better off with 40 years behind the Iron Curtain. :p

It's not like you bother using it that much anyway :)

Not sure why you felt like mentioning the civil war here.I decided to erase what I wrote about that history, cause if you actually want to (obviously not) you can research it.

You regularly harp about US intervention and how it has been a terrible thing. I just wanted to point out that your country has been subject to such intervention. Do you have an opinion about that intervention?
