You seem to suffer from a deep confusion between core motivation and predictable reaction on the one hand, your subjective perception of good and bad on the other.
Yes, his family were despots since 1948. And they like to stay that way. So what is the conclusion to be drawn from this?
That's why after 2001, it is entirely predictable that they will ignore all else to focus on acquiring a credible nuclear deterrent. When we went into Iraq, we should have considered some despot acquiring an ability to deliver a nuke to the continental us within 10-20 years as a extremely likely long term consequence of the invasion.
I predict North Korea will still be with us in 50 years, precisely because they have a nuclear weapon, and their continued existence, combined with the extinction of nukeless Hussein and kadafi will continue to serve as abject lessons for all despots out of favor in american's increasingly feckless foreign policies that independent ability to nuke the US is the best and only assurance of survival for despots.
Not since the 1950s has the US done as much to encourage others to acquire the capability to nuke us as we have done between 1996 and now, primarily between 2001 and now.
