always telling the truth and ownership at the syrian observatory for human rights is left several media outlets quoting false information as two rivals fight for the same name your original group was hijacked by opposition activists who are posting military deaths alongside civilian ones both sites claim they're the official observatory this is the original site in arabic with an english version on facebook and this is the fake site launched in the center and mostly in english several foreign news outlets have assume they are one and the same thing quoting the fake sites casualty figures the consequence a very different perspective of the crisis the original cites latest figures showed just over five thousand one hundred civilian deaths against almost two thousand military casualties the rival site claims well over six and a half thousand civilians have been killed and barely six hundred troops a difference many claim suggests this is a lot more than just
5:01 am
a numbers game i don't think even the people using these figures are have any objectivity really they have an agenda a clear agenda is the just the fire by any means possible that assad regime is a brutal massacring regime and it needs to fall a soon as possible and we can see the united nations security council when that human rights strategy for regime change doesn't work how annoyed western governments are have got syrian observatory the original observatory strictly opposes military intervention the man who hijacked it's name disagrees. used to translate at the real observatory he was fired after falsely claiming to be an official spokesman and using a live interview to call for a no fly zone since then he's launched a smear campaign against the original group claiming their impostors as are we and his figures have been quoted by the b.b.c. c.n.n. and a.b.c. australia i am. groups say they tried to pass some political views such as like
5:02 am
calling for no fly zone for international intervention and we made it clear that sitting on the server tree for human rights. original organization is that we are i guess an interventional we are against a no fly zone all we need is to stop the bloodshed in that is going on in syria as always and is group refused to speak on camera stating i cannot waste my time talking about this is the moment whilst people are dying in homes there are my priority right now he did refer us to another opposition group based in london and they too refused to comment on the ownership of the observatory but they did confirm that reporting military deaths was not in their interest it's not our position to report. these awful for government troops the b.b.c. and the guardian had to withdraw material after falsely quoting as always the human rights observatory the un stopped counting the death toll claiming it's too
5:03 am
difficult to keep track of but its human rights chief also said five thousand civilian deaths should be enough to provoke international action the real observatory still documents the deaths civilian or otherwise but it may be too late for the numbers to matter either bennett r.t. london. meantime a us based professor. believes that outside forces are fueling the fire of caught in syria by waging an information war. media's says that it is. that is killing innocent civilians and then there is a commission of fact finders sent by the arab league who says otherwise said that this is in fact facing acts of sabotage of the economy terrorist acts as a tax on public and private property killing civilians and military and security

forces and any government in the world has to put down any kind of arms but existence and restore law and order so i i think absent. for an outside interference smuggling of arms and things like this the syrians would be able to find a way out of the quagmire they are in but it seems that the outside forces or some outside force was. worth some in the west for venting the strife and. not helping up or. and a moscow is condemning all sides of the syrian conflict for instigating the violence while saying that president assad is ready for talks with the opposition and a political analyst if you put him a louche believes that russia's approach will actually help to solve the crisis by leaving the rebels in syria no choice but to negotiate after so many a months of
5:05 am
military operations by the rebels in syria at this pretty clear that what we are dealing with here is definitely not a peaceful protest but an armed rebellion supported from abroad the veto is helping peace more than anything because at the styling the forum by the opposition that cannot count on the foreign intervention as happened in libya and iraq to top out of the regime and therefore. the veto is creating better conditions for the opposition to come to the negotiating table and in that sense the vehicle is fostering peace. it's good to have you with us today and still to come just a bit later in the program the legal fiction of the caffeine. fix

5:08 am
a very good relationship in terms of the economy and trade with iran it was retrieved in the last twenty years the connection of that has been lost after the iranian revolution and the situation was improving until we came to this new tension and he's not just to spain and italy also greece imports lots of oil from iran and it could be hard hit in a way that would bring them bankrupt in the coming future that would be a complete disaster for the european union and for the euro and that can happen because of these of these political move it has now become an economic issue and can have even more. destructive effects if the iranians decide to say cut the strait of hormuz or even if they now decide to beat europe to it by. by by cutting off their oil now because we need this time to find alternative supplies if they cut the supply now we want to be able to find them
