Regime change in Afghanistan to remove the Taliban resulted in the return of the Taliban
Regime change in Iraq to remove Saddam Hussein resulted in the rise of Daesh (ISIS)
Regime change in Libya to remove Ghadaffi resulted in chaos and a decade plus of civil war
Each showed images of locals celebrating. Each ended in tragedy.
Violent regime change does not work. It never has. Because it is driven by oil and profit, not people and principles.
