And that's where I think you are mistaken. One should not assume that "help" from the US would be greeted with open arms.
Just because some people are revolting against their government does not necessarily mean they want US interference. Especially considering our "strings attached" foreign policy.
How much of the current situations were influenced because the US presumed that it was needed to "fix" stuff and went in assuming that people were indeed "looking to the west for help"? I suspect more than may be commonly believed.
