Oof. The Gaddafi assassination was bad for Libya and it was done for the financial interests of the western elites, not for the sake of the people of Libya.

That's the problem. It's not like Iran is a great system full of equality and democracy, but usually when you see interventionism in situations like these it's not good for the people of those countries.
