UK Calls For UN Ruling On Syria

British Foreign Secretary William Hague said on May 2, 2011 that the time was fast approaching when the UN Security Council would have to rule on what he called the 'unacceptable' violence in Syria. William Hague, British Foreign Secretary, said that "On Syria, we condemn the violence against peaceful protesters. We have already brought in, in the European Union an arms embargo on Syria, and we are now considering targeted sanctions on individuals associated with this violence" when he met Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil el-Araby. The British Foreign Secretary William Hague also added  "...Time is not on the side of the Gaddafi regime..." addressing himself toward the regime of Muammar al-Gaddafi. Additionally, British Foreign Secretary Hague announced his support for a reconciliation deal between Hamas and Fatah, a deal that has been condemned by Israel which rejects negotiations with Hamas. 

The violence in Syria has been rising and no precautions have been taken to make it stop the violent behaviors. Mr. Hague said that they have condemn the violence against peaceful protesters in Syria and that they are considering targeted sanctions on individuals associated with the violence, my question is when are they going to take action against those who are creating violence in that nation? As for the message addressing the Gaddafi's regime when he said that "Time is not on the side of the Gaddafi regime" I believe that they have shown which side they are willing to support.
