as someone whose country was in war in previous decades, there are huge side effects that no one is counting. Devastated generations of people and suffering that can't be measured properly. The region was peaceful, just like many other in the world until democracy concept knocked on their doors. Getting through war is leaving terrible marks on people who survive, on so many levels. And war there is brutal. Everything was better than war, especially to live in a Muslim country that was accepting differences. Who gives a shit if he is a dictator? What is the definition of dictator at the end. Ultimate bullshit. Different historical conditions, different religion,mentality. They don't need western dmocracy and there is no reason to force them into that....of course except https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qatar-Turkey_pipeline
