Rich, Rich, you have too narrow a view for you to ever really get what libertarianism really should be: the invasion effort is to keep the totalitarians neutralized so they can't interfere with the libertarianization of the polities in the target countries. That's all it can do anyway. It's just inherently right to cast down antilibertarian regimes.

Libertarians, you see, espouse human liberty. There are real libertarians and there are parlor libertarians. Real libertarians are the ones willing to make that liberty happen, in despite of anything any slavemaker might have to say or do about it. By that measure, George Bush is among the real libertarians. No wonder I like him. Parlor libertarians stay in their parlors, meditating upon the beauties they see cloudily upon the distant horizon, far off in the land of If-Only.

Nuts to that. Libertarianism should not be construed as an excuse to do nothing, because it's all just so hard. The only people actually making it hard are the assholes who want totalitarianism. When these are dead, they don't want anything any more, and their interference with liberty is removed.
