Intervention only occured in Libya after the government started using Planes and artillery, and even then only after it descended into Civil War and the army was at the gates of the rebel stronghold.
The question is how the Syrian government will behave. On the one hand, Libya will probably embolden the authorities, on the other hand they might want to avert the out and out civil war that's afflicted Libya, particularly because they're much more vulnerable to several hostile neighbours (Israel in particular).
