If you defend invasions and occupations, you're advocating for mass destruction of the infrastructure, mass casualties of civilians, and large scale kidnappings, tortures, and assassinations to subdue the population, eliminate political opposition, and intimidate labor unions. That also doesn't include the many civilian deaths that preceded the invasions in economic sanctions and may follow the invasions if the changeover in government was unsuccessful as we see now in Syria.
Quite a few people have been displaced as a result of the wars, more than as a result of World War II.

If the government is not to the liking of the US, clandestine operations modeled after the Phoenix Program in S. Vietnam will continue for decades as we've seen in Afghanistan and Iraq.
