While I agree with you almost entirely on procedure, I still say that this event gives the bad actors a broader other-than-violence road into the future. They think that they will have no place in a free society, because they have falsely assumed that a Democracy in [insert middle eastern shithole here] will necessarily be nothing more than an American colony.
Yes, they are thugs, but they are thugs that will need to someday loosen if not completely let go of the reigns of their dictatorships, hopefully without us having to destroy their respective countries infrastructures first.
I believe globalism is a juggernaut. I would compare the economic force of globalism to the military force of America, where Iran and Syria play military proxy of globalism's critics. The best the bad guys can hope for is to stall progress for a short time. They can use that time to try and jockey for better positions in a future that's better than the one they were hoping for, but the clock is ticking.
