米国：シリア政府の石油・ガス収入に打撃を与える方策を検討
最初の下線部は、国際刑事裁判所に対する審理請求を視野に、米国がシリア大統領の人権侵害事例を集めるというもの。（やる気があるのかどうかわからない書きぶり）
2番目の下線は、シリア政府の石油・ガス収入に打撃を与える方策を検討している。
ちなみに昨夕に届いたばかりのBP統計によると、（2008年→09年→10年）
石油生産398→375→385 thou b/dと僅かながら底を打った。
天然ガス生産5.3→5.7→7.8 bil cu/mと大幅に増産。

WASHINGTON―The Obama administration is gathering information on alleged human-rights abuses by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's security forces for possible referral to the International Criminal Court in the Hague, senior U.S. officials said Friday.
The U.S. is also exploring ways to more directly target Syria's oil and gas revenue, which are seen as a key financial lifeline for Mr. Assad and his inner circle.
U.S. officials said these measures were being considered in response to the "appalling" violence exacted by the Assad regime that is estimated to have killed 1,100 Syrians since March, and another 20 Friday.
"Assad is pushing his country on the path of being a pariah state," a senior U.S. official said Friday. "We are operating in a number of ways to increase the pressure" on him.
The official said the U.S. was collecting reports on alleged Syrian abuses for a potential referral to the ICC, which opened a case against Libyan leader Moammar Ghadafi in recent weeks. "Can't tell how it would go, but we're consulting on that internally and regionally," the official said.
Unlike in Col. Gadhafi's case, however, the U.S. has not called on Mr. Assad to step down.
