Well, why not?  One of the major reasons for doing
this was such a "side benefit" - which doesn't make it
much of a side benefit at all.  "Pour encourager les
autres" as Voltaire said.

In all seriousness, I still don't get it.  Other than
such displays of force, what do you think a Qaddafi
would respond to?  As far as I can tell, _nothing_
except force is likely to get results from someone
like him.
