democratically elected several times by his own people, and remains one of the most popular leaders, more popular eg, than Obama or Bush, with the people who have the most right to decide whether he is an 'asshole' or not, just who are 'we' protecting? Can you please explain what business it is of the U.S. to interfere in a country that we are not citizens of and whose own citizens appear to be doing just fine with the leader they chose? The world will turn without the assistance of the U.S. fyi. Most of the world would like us to just mind our business and leave them alone.

Or do you think that the policies of the U.S. of choosing and backing brutal dictators for decades in that region of the world, were in any way justified? Do we have some divine right to determine the fate of other nations?
