Yes, ended very well for (the ones that I am familiar with) Iraq (obviously) , Iran (25 years of economic exploitation that was also responsible for 1979 and what followed), Chile/Nicaragua (close to two lost decades for both countrie), and the utter disasters (for their peoples of course) in Yugoslavia, Ukraine and Libya

Of course the "intervention" in Russian elections 1996 is worthy of mention, both for the economic devastation caused and the utter hypocrisy of recent accusations against Russia

Why is that ridiculous?

Lying that the country ws inhabited to claim the land was against the law.
And the way the indigenous people are treated here is racist, colonial and very very backward.
Lack of education amd health care means families in some communities still have no value of money, dont have a clue how to set up health care and because of lack od health care in these communities Australia is the only 1st world country with Tracoma.
