The Biggest problem with "Another Country" bringing regime change is that there will always be many who believe that other country will somehow be suspect in installing a puppet government.

UNLESS The People of THAT country rise up, and demand change, Why should we do it for them? It is them who will be the ones being governed in the end, and the only way a person can be governed is by allowing themselves to be governed.

As for Iraq becoming a "Magnet" for terrorists all over the world, Rumsfeld has now had to change that story, admitting 95% of the insurgency are IRAQI Nationals. To many there we are seen as OCCUPIERS, not SAVIORS.
