Both have been about regime change. I believe whether or not one was a worse decision than the other was question, and overall public perception factors into that worse/better calculus IMO, and at the time many Americans wanted blood in the name of hurting terrorists.

Still, they intentionally lied us into going to the wrong country. Hurting the terrorists wasn't a bad idea except that it made it harder to hurt the real terrorists which was always the best idea. Doing it their way cost more lives, money and time and alienated more people. Fwiw, neither should have been about regime change.
