I never said this was an invasion, I'm responding to someones question on why the US DOESN'T just use military action against every country.

For example, when Russia ivaded Georgia their reasoning to the UN was that they had the same reasons the US had to invade Iraq, in other words if the US can do it why can't they?

Different example. Georgia was threatening a recognized semi-autonomous territory. America in Iraq was more of a straight "we don't like you so there," example.

Funnily looking back, all of this 2011 noise might have lead to a popular revolt against Saddam Hussein's Iraq if we had never interfered, though the installation of reasonably successful democracy there might have been what inspired them...


Well.... the apperance of  a reasonably successful democracy anyway.

I mean, there have been protests in iraq too.

It's just nobody has paid any media attention to them.
