These were secret police executions out in the desert, tortures in prisons, etc. I'm talking about sectarian wars, blowing up businesses and civilians every day and the lawlessness that we see and hear every hour.

I guess you measure "stability" not in how many people die, but how they are killed.

No ma'am, we're talking about every day conditions not how a dictatorship controls its people.

We didn't invade Argentina because Peron was throwing people from planes over the ocean. Killing people by dictatorial regimes is happening every day and we don't hear about it. Will this constitute instability in all these countries? Hardly.
