Quite simply, yes I believe if you are strong there are cases when it is justified to use that strength to protect your citizens. I believe that the fact we are more powerful than Laos means that we should bully and threaten them - to save the life of a 20 year old girl who is going to be shot down like a dog.
And obviously the UK didnt lead the attack on Afghanistan, but we are fighting there. If it was about routing out the terrorists we'd be fighting in Pakistan...
