Iraq is a cautionary tale about nation-building: trying to implant Western parliamentary democracy in Iraq, with elections, coalitions, campaigns, etc.

It is not a cautionary tale in regime change pure and simple: replacing the current dictator with a pro-Western one and leaving. That type of regime change has been effective in Latin America and East Asia and is compatible with a cautious, America First, foreign policy.

It is for the peoples of the Middle East to provide themselves with better governance.
