i wouldn't consider "sophisticated communications systems" like what GD is said to have sold them, as an example of Western nations having to do with the violence against the protesters.
besides, having these kinda regimes dependent on Western weapon suppliers is actually good, as it gives the west something to pressure them with.
if Libya's army was more dependent on U.S support like Egypt's army is, things in Libya might have looked different.
