You're avoiding the issue though, again. Was it just, or unjust to get involved in Somalia. Ignore all the past imperialistic en devours by other countries...300,000 people have been killed...just or unjust to get involved?
Forgetting the fact that you won't come clean on Viet Nam, the yanks got spanked and left Somalia, so I guess their interference was unjust. If they really felt just, they would have stayed and righted the problem. To add though, I said usually and sometimes the situation is so volatile [Somalia] or one military force is so overwhelming [China versus Tibet] that the supposed just guys don't have a chance. There are no hard and fast rules as to who is the good guy and who isn't, every situation is unique and must be decided on it's own merits, but I'd say there has to be damn good reasons to interfere with another countries sovereignity.
