I don't have to go that far back to see what the Bible has to say about our nation being used by God to take down the murderous regime of Saddam Hussein who gassed his people among other atrocities and whose sons had rape rooms where they had their way with innocent women they pulled off the streets.
Romans 13:1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, 4 for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer.

An interesting analysis. No objections, at least yet.
