Why ignore the barracks, the warehouses, the military centers?
Those who know that a no fly zone involves obliterating the assets(and people :() means destroying any and all means of preventing a foreign power air superiorly.


Why are the coalition forces tip-toeing around this?

1. Better To Kill As Few People As Possible, Sir
There is probably a good deal of cash bidding for loyalties going on just now. The easiest way to end this is to turn some elements Gaddahfi counts on now against him, and this is better done by showing people they could be killed than by actually killing them.

Nothing Libyan is going to fly now in any case; it is a question of armor and artillery and trucks.

3. The object of creating a no fly zone is destroying assets,
not people.
