Isn't a voluntary agreement between two parties libertarian?
The United States, Ukraine and the United Kingdom all voluntarily agreed to the "Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances".
Since when do libertarians do not believe in signed agreements, property rights, defence of lives and freedoms?

Crushing Irak (2x), Libya or Serbia was absolutely necessary to keep peace
Definitely true for first Iraq war and Serbia. Iraq basically just did unprovoked attack and occupation of neighboring country (mainly because they didn't want to pay back their debts), like Russia is doing now.
Not so for other two, there I agree.

Learn your history!
First Gulf War wasn't NATO mission, it was UN sanctioned mission of coalition led by US. Coalition included countries that were part of NATO, that were part of Warsaw pact (like Poland, Czechoslovakia, Romania) and that were members of neither block. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_of_the_Gulf_War
Second Gulf War also wasn't NATO mission, it was US led coalition that included few NATO members, but even more countries that weren't part of NATO. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_of_the_willing_(Iraq_War)
Only Libya and Kosovo (response to aggression by Serbia) were NATO led missions, both again sanctioned by United Nations.

Muscovy have been pain in the ass for it's neighbors since it's foundation in 13th century. I seriously started learned history before I had access to the Internet, as a kid in the 1990s. Wikipedia is just fast way how to link to well known obvious facts, like 2+2=4.
