That fallacy is basically based on the idea that: A is bad, hence A is false. But that's fallacious because desirability is not connected to truth/falsehood.
I accept your correction.


Nonetheless, your argument is still invalid because it's a False Dilemma.

Your argument "If they had not used military force, the result would been far, far worse" reduces the options to just two (either military force or something "a thousand times worse"), when there were, in fact, other possible plausible outcomes.
Try again!
