1. At one point they offered to lead it? Is that still on the table? |

If not, why not? The people upfront need to be fellow Arabs, not westerners.

3. They'll never do that, so I suspect. |
|
They don't want to accept responsibility. The want "the West" to blame when it doesn't work out how they want.

The French have already recognized the opposition government, so I suspect they will end up leading the goat rope.
