    Why would they do that? Most American liberals don’t even genuinely feel they should not have invaded Iraq and Afghanistan. They just feel they kinda “bungled” the whole process.

      The “bungling” they would talk about this time would be “being tricked into supporting an authoritarian dictator” they’ll portray it as them being noble and brave and trying to save someone, but being tricked because the guy was actually a bad guy.

      So they wouldn’t ever admit the war was amoral or for profit, just that they were fooled by a baddie into fighting the war. 100% blameless west.
