There is a genuine irony in the fact that the American lead War on Terror post 9/11 achieved it's goal of regime change in the likes of Iraq and Libya, but failed to contemplate that the political vacuum that they left behind, would allow the very people that they were originally supposed to be targeting to flourish and assume positions of power and influence.
Pretty true but.. it is questionable that it was unforseen beause Dick Cheney in 94 said what you just said, 1994, 9 years later he's beating war drums.

So they knew
With Libya, they literally left in power people the UK and US had tortured after being captured in Afghanistan. Those are the rebels that they helped take power after all!! The same sectarian nuts head chopping heart eating nuts are in Syria now fighting Assad, when they win, there will be a bloodbath as the former regime and affiliates and religious groups are slaughtered
