If you have to choose between one evil and another - its probably better not to choose at all. Non-intervention would have been the best policy to follow here.

If you have to choose between one evil and another - its probably better not to choose at all. Non-intervention would have been the best policy to follow here. Hysteria raised by journalists should not be the primary motivating factor for waging war. No one did the cost analysis for lives ended by anarchy and extra-ordinary poverty and suffering caused by complete national economic breakdown. This is just my personal opinion - but military intervention should be only used for self-defence and the defence of one's allies. And for nothing else.
