And Clinton also wanted regime change in Iraq (removing Saddam). He claims that he would not have tried to do it by military force. That may be questionable considering how he supported military force in Bosnia. Ways to remove Saddam other than by force would have been limited if not impossible. Sanctions wouldn't have worked. The only sure other way would have been to wait till he died, but then his nasty sons would have taken over. Clinton could have infiltrated the Iraq regime with anti-government radicals who could lead to an overthrow. Or he could have sent or paid assassins. But that would be illegal. And we know that Bill wouldn't have done anything illegal. And, anyway, the results would probably be the same type of rise in groups like ISIS and the same Middle East disorder we have now.
