The American media: a week late and surprised about Iran and Syria. It's not "points to" but is proof

Commander's death in Syria points to Iranian role in civil war


prominent Iranian military figure has been killed while fighting in Syria, according to both Syrian opposition and Iranian government sources, adding to mounting evidence of Tehran's military assistance to Syrian President Bashar Assad.
Abdollah Eskandari, a retired senior commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), was "martyred" last Monday in fighting just south of Damascus, according to a statement released by the Iranian Defense Ministry. The statement was made during a memorial ceremony for the commander in Shiraz.
Syria's pro-opposition Tahrir Souri website posted grisly images that showed a young rebel fighter proudly holding what was purported to be Eskandari's mutilated head on a stake, coupled with other photos of a bruised and bloody headless corpse.
