Gaddafi murders many more people than Mubarak and the world is like “we’ll get back to you on Tuesday.”

1. Egypt is a client state, we trained their army, our generals are phone buddies with their generals. We have actual influence. This is not true of Libya.

2. Egypt is a high-value tourist destination. All the western nations would like to be able to continue sending tourists there. This is not true of Libya.
