else on the humanitarian side of the conflict which is claimed eva two thousand lives meanwhile russia is rallying members of the un security council to encourage the sides to stop violence and start. the kremlin believes president assad has a way to change the situation on the ground through reforms and his efforts deserve some credit for the u.s. and its western european allies are pushing for action against president assad's that regime which they've already sanctioned french political and this p.r. game that believes there's an underlying motive and calls for protecting syrian civilians. sanctions in general do not work because countries always find ways to go around that sanctions and saw this sanction for starting and. go on with production of oil although they would be banning of importation so it's not quite logical and most probably syria will find different outlets who are for its oil in every single one of these situations because every time the west or other countries

talk about a humanitarian intervention the question that needs to be asked is why there is a humanitarian intervention so-called in some countries but not in others for example in bahrain the people wanted to get rid of their regime but since it was so close to the u.s. there was no question of a human hearing mentioned and there's no question of a humanitarian intervention the saudi arabia no question of humanitarian intervention to help the palestinians so the humanitarian question cannot be deeply watched from political and economic questions you have to find the political and economic and military interest before you start believing in humanitarian reasons because most in all so-called interventions humanitarian interventions you there's another reason which is far more important. well while syria is a struggle of drugs let's see how it's impacting on the people of the stricken country. that has been meeting those at the sharp end of the sanctions. and the

dealer is a master barber those small his shop was floor until it all ended in a snip. mini customers would come from as far as twenty kilometers away from damascus but now the flow has come down. first came the unrest then the crackdown then the west quickly stepped in with sanctions to survive is to put the economic pressure on the cheap the political how about trying to help the people of syria to achieve the magician aspirations at first all major credit card transactions were stopped earlier this month but that mainly affected foreign tourists because syria runs its own payment system and those with syrian accounts didn't feel the pinch however the e.u. and the us are tightening their grip by imposing oil embargo on damascus so will that have any probable effect on the people here. of course sanctions will have

a negative effect on syrian economy it's a diversified economy with a stable debt which gives it a certain immunity against these sanctions. and this is not just government gloss in the face of imposed adversity syrian opposition figures are also unconvinced but for a different reason. the syrian government have chosen their path and no matter what measures are taken against them they continue down that road. so anxious are sold as a precise weapon to hit the regime where it hurts but syrian album is there to blunt a tool and it's the people who will suffer the most when you are talking about. the what we call it it would be my life as a serious citizen. but while the power dealers of the west in syria trade insults and blows for syrian workers like nigeria the daily battle is to keep his modest livelihood together while hoping for the best even r t damascus syria.

all over in libya the old regime may have been toppled but the findings showing no sign of letting up on the rebels say they've done enough talking say with ulti the latest from the front line in the hunt for colonel gadhafi is his loyalists remain determined to the end. now israel allows security forces to shoot at palestinian protesters who are preparing to march in support their bid for statehood at the u.n. later this month tell of these claims is trying to prevent bloodshed exactly as in the west bank the self defense on these policies across developments there. in some quarters there is talk of a intifada that some will say will be as bloody and as violent as the first two seculars of whom there are some four hundred thousand living in the land that has some two and a half million palestinians in the west bank all bracing themselves for violence as is the israeli army and the israeli police now for several months the israeli army

has been preparing in an operation it calls operation some the seeds and it's now in the final stages of putting the finishing touches in place to this and we're being told that they have demarcated a line around every settlement in the waistband and what this means is that palestinians who approach beyond that red line will be shot test by soldiers who will have a mission to do this now that also has been intensive training in terms of security groups within the statements they have been participating in drills that the army's been undergoing say seen provided with stun grenades with water cannons as well as with tear gas canisters also being told that some twenty million dollars has been spent on training the police alone that twenty eight thousand police officers have been mobilized around the country one of the focal points that they'll be watching is jerusalem which is where many fear most of the violence could erupt on saturday we saw the largest protests in this country's history four hundred thousand

demonstrators took to the streets of ten cities here in tel aviv was one of the focal points a number of speakers a number of artists address the crowd they spoke about making history they said really that this was a turning point in the history of this country what protesters have been demanding for the better part of two months is the social issue justice really what they saying is that the netanyahu government needs to be focused on issues of security and focus on internal problems problems such as the high cost of living in this country and this is a criticism that netanyahu is facing a criticism that he is spending too much time on issues. the international agenda law though then addressing the real domestic concerns here at home just this past weekend to be expelled the israeli ambassador and for all military cooperation between both countries the relationship between israel and egypt is at an all time low after israeli fire mistakenly killed a number of border guards so with that kind of regional isolation and certainly in

the context that it's just several weeks before palestinians will be appealing to the un for recognizing a unilateral declaration of statehood there is a lot of concern that what is happening on the international stage is really becoming an excuse for the netanyahu government not to address the real concerns that people have here i mean talking to protesters they accuse netanyahu of being past the been responsible and of being out of touch with what people in israel are concerned about. thank you all to talk more. to stop violence let's cross to tell of these an israeli peace and social campaign. she joins me live now many thanks for being with us here ok let's try and picture possible future crowds of palestinians marching peacefully among all the settlers and security forces ready to shoot how does that suggest the bloodshed can really be prevented.

well obviously. this is what we're hearing of about the army. bristling the settlers to open fire is not going to do anything to prevent violence. it's a extremely flammable dangerous situation and i thing. as a citizen of israel it's really difficult for me to see that the government instead of doing whatever it can to prevent. violence from breaking out actually. is almost promoting it almost fueling you know giving creating opportunities for breaks in a situation which is already very very tense but is that some sort of legal basis for all this we were just hearing earlier from our reporter paul asli he's in tel aviv and she reports on a red line if you like which israelis put around settlements which will see

palestinians shot if they cross it what is the legal right that allows this all but tree line in the sand to be deemed a lethal border if you like. well you know. i'm not an expert on law but it seems to me that there is no legal right and it's a very dangerous. you know it's there. first time produced and basically the army is now permitting civilians to open fire it is in fact creating civilian militia civilian militia and we will have right now to shoot should busting in crossing these lines that are as you said arbitrary and a lot of times these lines. go between the purse kenyans posting in

villages and. fields the places where they were it's there are lines of they have to cross and. yet it is a. difficult situation the israeli prime minister has said. this to go ahead of self-defense do you think there is a genuine concern the. defense is quiet cheering at this during these protests that will take part that will happen on the part of the palestinians . well i think of course the lawyers and not only so low as people in israel are afraid that there is i think genuine fear. you know you can say it's completely justified but from everything we've heard the palestinians are planning

nonviolent marches and demonstrations are supposed to be. women and children on these demonstrations from everything we know and i've heard these reports from israeli army and intelligence as well the palestinians are definitely not interested in the. events anything not anything like the intifada. but. yeah obviously in a situation like. the smallest provocation. can create. really you know violence in iraq and second well let's also talk about what's been happening inside israel and certainly we've seen big demonstrations against the high cost of living in israel is the prime minister doesn't know himself having a difficult time is it over there over these demonstrations in the way that his

government is preparing for this small church provided the frustrations for those israelis who want to see him pay more attention to the high cost of living for ordinary israelis and less attention to money on international issues. well. now is definitely having a hard time he is. he's not there was a huge demonstration just today and there was actually no response at all on the side of the government and i really really hold the these really public can see that. the policy in aceh is now looking to work isn't going against their better interests in economic issues and generally and. you know what i think. it is it is difficult to

tell what. the israeli public at large is going to take should. be violent events on the west bank but. we had such a big march for social justice for for against cost of living and i think it is a very israeli people to show that they are asking for justice you know justice for all the people living in this industry. it's peace activists and social protest many that was speaking to us live from tel aviv on this. now the head of nato says the alliance is military intervention in libya will not end with the capture of colonel gadhafi on the front line rebel forces are waiting for the green light to crash one of the last remaining pockets of resistance by gadhafi supporters rebel negotiators say ceasefire talks in the town of bani walid have

broken down but the country's interim government is certain there's still hope for a peaceful solution the national transitional council says two of the colonel sons who have been blocking the surrender of bani walid have now left the area and unclear number of gadhafi loyalists are holed up in the town one hundred fifty kilometers from tripoli with a journey have been given until saturday to lay down arms more loyalists are making a stand in his hometown of sirte and several other areas but as artie's briffa national report is the battle for bani walid that could prove decisive. they've been preparing for this operation for quite a long time with nato helping them clean path towards. military facilities in the area anywhere lead has always been known as the gadhafi stronghold and people from this area since the beginning of this conflict here in libya been fighting against rebels at all across the country and have been dying for. all the time been

supporting gadhafi who has provided them with a very good emission and the best weaponry so that's clear that it will not be easy for the rebels to take control over these areas while they need it actually could daffy host variables have been known and well behind her here not surprisingly remains the country's number one priority is thought to be right now with his sons in these areas this is. one more reason to take control over those areas are some of course the national transitional council has repeatedly been claiming recently that truthfully is not secure and is not safe and that they're working hard to try to restore order in the country on the territory now controlled technically by the national transitional council that we see on the ground actually

make. it successful so far apart from the humanitarian challenges that the country extreme currently facing such as severe shortages shortages of water food medicine and fuel politically situation this very unstable the city is full of people with unclear gender many of them very young with little knowledge of how to use weapons and it's quite unclear who is controlling them. scuffles have broken out between protesters and police outside the courthouse in cairo where the trial of former president hosni mubarak is resuming hundreds of demonstrators including relatives of people killed during the third thing attempted to break through the main gates and gain access to the calls for senior police officers are due to testify against monday's hearing which will be behind closed doors through all these charged with corruption and ordering the
