We stepped into Kosovo as part of our treaty arrangement under NATO.

We used the NATO command structure but the NATO treaty only requires a defensive response (strictly speaking to treat an attack on any members like an attack on all members). Also even if the treaty did call for offensive operations the treaty would not justify them. If they where right they would be right with or without NATO, and if they where wrong they would be wrong with or without NATO. So NATO really makes no difference in justifying military action other then defending a NATO member who has been directly attacked.
