Military interventions

Unlike Western standards, I far disapprove of the Saudi reactionary military interventions in Yemen and Bahrain than of the Soviet military intervention in Czechoslovakia in 1968, over which Western commentators still pour tears almost daily.  We also now know of the lousy agenda of Havel and his company, not to mention their intellectual poverty.  Furthermore, who can deny that the Soviet military intervention of Afghanistan was far less harmful and far less reactionary than the American military intervention there?
