Shining Presence (Israel)
Vigilant Warrior (Kuwait)
Provide Hope (Former Soviet Union)
Support Justice (South America)
Nobel Response (Kenya)

I mean, how about "Operation Iraqi Freedom"?

I thought all of those you listed were "peace keeping" missions? You seem to be suggesting that those were not noble pursuits. I would have to disagree!
Operations that involve aggression do seem to have names that fit, like Desert Storm.
