In the article found on the following link http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-17765654 states that the UN Security General Ban Ki-moon says Syria has failed to comply with it's obligation under a peace plan. The peace plan was negotiated by UN-Arab League 'envoy' Kofi Annan. Syria, apparently, is under obligation to pull troops and heavy weapons outs of urban areas- I'm assuming Homs would fall under that plan. Since Syrian's President hasn't done such, Ki-moon asked for 300 observers to be sent into 10 different areas around the country.
It is hard, in my opinion, to not be biased in a situation such as this. The article states that an estimated 9,000 people have been killed during the uprisings- It is difficult to watch innocent people being slaughtered by it's own government and be able to point the finger elsewhere.
