From Asharq Al Awsat: All options available to oust al-Assad - Syrian National Council

Thousands of Syrians took to the streets yesterday to call for the international community to impose a no-fly zone above the country to protect the Syrian rebel army and unarmed Syrian civilians from being targeted by the aerial weaponry of the al-Assad regime. This call for the imposition of a no-fly zone is being read in some circles as a first step towards the Syrian revolutionaries explicitly calling for foreign military intervention to put an end to the Syrian crisis which began almost 7 months ago. This is a scenario that was not explicitly denied by members of the Syrian National Council [SNC], who stressed that the SNC is seeking to adhere to the demands made by the Syrian activists on the ground, and did not rule out resorting to the military option to confront the al-Assad regime, whether this is with regards to calling for foreign military intervention or taking up arms themselves.
