“The military target was Gaddafi.”

Really? When did the chief of state become a military target? What theory of war supports that belief?

When he wears a uniform, though I question whether anyone is at war here. I understand NATO is simply protecting civilians, a noble cause, from the air. If Gaddafi survives, in power, he will be a threat to the west.
