As compared to what alternative?
Well, not intervening in Libya for starters.
What are your criteria for good foreign policy choices then? You have conveyed that you want Iraq to be occupied, but Libya to be neglected, so non-intervention clearly is not the standard.
My current best guess is 'whatever promotes maximum stability'. Also, how do you expect these decisions are currently made?
