The example given actually butresses MY point, not yours. Afghanistan was always ruled by despots - until WE got there. It is not surprising that a regime that was not based on Rule of Law collapsed.
Now, if you'd said that the Iraqis need good military and law enforcement leadership, I'd agree with that proposition. But note well, legitimate military and police leadership must subordinate itself to civil authority - and we're right back to revering the Rule of Law, and rejecting the Rule of Men.
