Justified retaliation or another example of American imperialist aggression?

While the term "Freedom Bombing" sounds like a bad parody of neocon rhetoric, I do think the U.S. had the right to retaliate against a nation whose leader had sponsored terrorist attacks against it and its soldiers.

Justified to an extent-certainly more so than the 2011 bombings.

I would describe any bombings that have occurred in the history of man as "horrible" (sane)

Even disregarding the horrifying idea of calling any bombing a "Freedom Bombing," the event was not justified or even permissible from a "humanitarian intervention" standpoint.

Freedom bombing and one more sign of Reagan being a spineless worm, who pushed all the problems down the road to his successors, rather than invading the rotting corpse which was Libya and leaving Ghadaphy to the justice of the Libyan people (at least that happened later).

It is by definition a "freedom bombing" since America did it.
