The West Dithers

...and dithers while issuing strong statements and pretending to collaborate:

World leaders unsure of how to respond to Gadhafi
"Every option from an embargo to military intervention is being feverishly discussed in diplomatic corridors, yet the reality is that any effective action is likely to be stymied by a lack of consensus among the key powers, despite their memories of their failures to prevent past massacres in Rwanda, Bosnia and elsewhere."
I expect Western leaders want to get all their citizens out, before pressing further. And that process isn't proceeding too smoothly, Western or otherwise, some aspects of which have nothing to do with their home governments.
