Did you read the article?
The official said the drone, along with a French fighter jet, fired on the "large convoy" leaving Qaddafi's hometown of Sirte. A French defense official earlier said about 80 vehicles were in the convoy -- the official said the strike did not destroy the convoy but that fighters on the ground afterward intercepted the vehicle carrying Qaddafi. He was later killed, reportedly in the crossfire between Qaddafi supporters and opponents as he was being transferred.
It's not like the US woke up one day and decided to invade another country. Come to think of it, the US didn't invade Libya. This was part of the Arab spring, had little to do with the US, was more of the EU and NATO than anything else.
It's also kind of pointless to bring this up. I'm not saying the US hasn't done wrong or taken similar actions; I'm saying right here right now this is wrong. This has been a three month issue of citizens protesting until the government finally took action and removed the President, who then fled the country, and SUDDENLY Russia needs to protect Russian citizens? Odd how this didn't come up three months ago or the day before the President was removed by his own government.
