Up until the start of the Syrian civil war Assad was looked upon in a positive light by American politicians, never mind that him and his father were nicknamed butchers by the Syrian people. This whole civil war started because a bunch of teenagers were arrested for spray painting anti-government propaganda. That would have happened in a number of countries not just Syria. Now, America sees an opportunity to try to depose an ally of Russia and China so they fight against this dictatorship when they have no problems with Saudi Arabia?

Syria should on paper, be our closest ally in the Middle East theater if not for the Russian and Chinese ties.

Qaddafi's dictatorship was sacked because their relations had really soured big time with France. With France turning on him, he was greenlit and fair game for a regime change in addition to his ailing mental health.

He was a power broker in the Middle East theater and started to clam up and may have asked for too much sovereignty from Uncle Sam. Witnesses had a French intelligence agent unaffiliated with the Revolution, pushed past the men detaining Qaddafi, leaned in, and shot Qaddafi while the captors were deciding what to do with him.

But he was a dicktater hehe who cares.
