    U.S. SAYS MILITARY INTERVENTION IN SYRIA "WILL LEAD TO GREATER CARNAGE"

    PanARMENIAN.Net - Military intervention in Syria "is always an option"
    but at this time it is not the right course as it "would lead to
    greater chaos, greater carnage," U.S. White House spokesman Jay Carney
    said, according to RIA Novosti.

    "We do not believe that militarization, further militarization of
    the situation in Syria at this point is the right course of action,"
    Carney told a daily press briefing.

    President Barack Obama administration's top spokesman said the United
    States intends to keep working with the UN Security Council and UN
    peace envoy Kofi Annan to find ways to pressure Syrian leader Bashar
    al-Assad to end his military crackdown on citizens and resign from
    his post.

    Carney also called this weekend's massacre in the Syrian town of Houla
    "a horrifying testament to this regime's depravity."

    Over 100 people, including dozens of children and women, were killed
    in Houla in Homs province, in the May 25-26 attack that was one of
    the deadliest single events since the uprising against Assad began in
    March 2011. The UN Security Council on Sunday condemned the massacre,
    which took place shortly before Tuesday's visit to Syria by Annan.

    In all, over 10,000 people have been killed in clashes between the
    government and opposition forces in Syria since the start of the
    anti-Assad uprising, according to UN estimates.
