As the uprising appears to be entering a new phase, is there still room for a political solution?[/b] The past few days have seen a significant rise in violence on streets of Syria. Activists say around 120 people died on Thursday and Friday alone. Before suspending their observer's mission in Syria on Saturday, the Arab League has warned of the significant escalation of violence over the last three days. Calls within the opposition for all-out armed resistance are growing louder. The slogan for Friday's protests was "The right to self-defence". http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/insidesyria/2012/01/201212975618333832.html?utm_content=rssautomatic&utm_campaign=twitter&utm_source=SocialFlow&utm_term=june&utm_medium=tweet [/quote]

In the past few days the Syrian uprising has appeared to escalate, with intensive fighting and sectarian attacks taking place in Homs.
In addition the Free Syria Army has captured what it claims are members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards in Homs and has released a video showing this.
Enduring America has translated the captives’ confessions which are in Persian:
0:49 – 0:57 My name is Sajjad (Haider Ali) Aminan and I am a member of the revolutionary armed forces of Iran. I am leader of a five-member
Iran’s news agency Mehr News claims the men in the clip are merely engineersand the Islamic Republic News Agency IRNA is now claiming that 11 pilgrims have also been abducted.
What’s significant is that the increase in reports of Iranians having been captured has occurred after the visit of the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s Jerusalem Corps, Gen. Qassem Suleimani, to Damascus where he and Assad discussed a “strategy to defeat foreign conspiracies.”
