Is the USA responsible for most of the world's Muslim problems by destroying Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi's regimes? Once destroyed, turmoil caused mass Muslim migration around the world.

The Iraq War wasn't the cause of the mass migration, it didn't star then, but overthrowing Libya's leader (and the ensuing chaos) had an effect.

The biggest catalyst was the civil war in Syria, and, yes, we were partially responsible for that, seeing as it happened as an extension of the very misguided Arab Spring that we wrongly supported. Had we been out of the area after the Iraq War, we likely wouldn't be seeing this influx.

Let's not put it all on us. Let's just say that our "help" hasn't helped.

The problems in the Middle East are much longer than 2003. The modern problems started around 1917.

Yes, we did not start the craziness. But did we help or harm ?

Fair enough but it looks like in recent years more harm than help.

Yeah. It is our fault.

This is why I have often wondered and stated if a better strategy would be turning those countries into a crater as opposed to "toppling" a regime.
