Semantics. Remember the Black Panthers? That Black Panthers where a political group who used drug dealing to fund their operations. Drawing a distinction against them and run of the mill drug dealers is useful, not empty semantics. In any case even the black panthers where a general insurgency movement or a group that should be dealt with in a primarily military matter. Is making money by any means OK? How about banl robbery or murder for hire? Of course bank robbery is wrong where did you get the idea that I was defending it. But should we combat bank robbers with Apache's or 155 howitzers. Cops use helicopters. For air strikes? The bomb was rather small, intended only to destroy that bunker, according to the record. The onus is on you to prove otherwise. Quite possibly, the crims, knowing a hit was coming, loaded that bunker with explosives to make a REALLY BIG BANG! Maybe but maybe not. What evidence was found of pre-existing explosives?
