a controversial sponsorship deal with the chemical giant linked to the infamous bhopal disaster which claimed tens of thousands of lives in india. next up on r.t. our interview with investigative journalist also winstanley following focusing i should say on the turbulence situation in and around syria stay with us. today i'm drawn by a so when stanley an investigative journalist rajan on the middle east his latest piece delves into the discrepancies amongst the casualty figures in the syrian crisis later thanks as being to r.t. now one of the most quoted sources for those casualty figures is the syrian observatory for human rights but you've recently found out information that suggests you can't necessarily always be trusted why is that i think first of all we have to establish who really is this the syrian observatory for human rights. in
5:32 am
our investigation we didn't really uncover any particular reason to doubt the genuine obligatory is favors. but there is another group led by this man with a very as figures a slightly higher than the original observatories groups the syrian observatory for human rights program. makes a point to be they say you know they're independent and human rights group and they're so they are called all deaths whether they're soldiers syrian soldiers loyal to the regime all the defectors or their protesters where as. now as our its crew came through there as well but their figures for the number of. military they are much much lower so this seems to be you know a certain agenda there behind it all seems to me basically. although both sides deny differences in in military intervention essentially in political differences
5:33 am
there is different trends in the syrian opposition mainly between people who support outside intervention and the protestors who don't save the syrian national council which are now openly in favor of a no fly zone which to me seems ridiculous because you know there isn't any even crane that i know of. the syrian. for all its many crimes there's no claim that it's problems people so no fly zone just seem the political pretext very to me. and the original syrian observatory for human rights group is against that that there was a split and said we don't support a no fly zone they said that i mean some of the least these two sorry these two groups they both seemed to call it a night direct links to different factions of the opposition they seem their position seems to line up why doesn't this from internal referral in the syrian
5:34 am
opposition and even more widely reported do you think it's damaging for the potentially damaging for the original syrian observatory for human rights if they get into a slanging match about well with just two sides fighting each other sort of thing and they will they i mean they don't want to make a very very to me the original syrian observatory group because of that so that's one factor another factor is just embarrassing for example for the b.b.c. to say robin probably check this guy and we put him on anything more news channel as a spokesperson for the syrian observatory which has become a really highly quoted source in the news can we still trust that they think there is a good question and i think i think it still needs to be looked into more i think it's very difficult but this is this is a ration in syria it's very very difficult to get with the information from anyone . and the main reason for that is the fact that it's the regime has not
5:35 am
allowed free access to journalists because it is the ongoing crime that is committed wish to seem to be. hopefully not but things do seem to be spiraling towards the scenario of civil war i think what is what is good that it's journalists are open to the views of activists on the ground which is i mean essentially what was the syrian observatory for human rights that's where they get their information from these activists and i mean i witness is on the ground i think it's good for journalists to be open so that at the same time they need to check them so i think there is a tendency for. the media in this country in america to accept more uncritically the views of activists on the ground in the case of syria and also iran because it they're seen as anti western regimes whereas if it's in the case of things like palestine for example they far far far less regular for them to take the views of
5:36 am
activists on the ground how willing has the foreign media would you say been its consumption of the figures published by the result group a lot of the mainstream news channels sort of were taken in by his area and he's appeared on the b.b.c. in either period on al jazeera english and c.n.n. and probably others. as a spokesperson for the observatory are. grabbing of the reference as he was never a spokesperson for them his kind of narrative which has become increasingly shrill working it plays into the narrative of we need to do something we meaning you know the west or the british government or the american government or whatever we need to intervene we need to do something it plays into that kind of narrative i mean for example periods last month on. australian t.v. and the news there were genocide which of what's happening now i mean. that
5:37 am
seems to me exaggerated for the crimes of the bashar assad regime he's he's kind of seems to be inflating it which to me is is damaging to the opposition and that's for people who i've spoken to who are either part of the opposition or sympathetic to the opposition that's why they kind of they don't like this kind of approach because the crimes of the regime of bad enough without some kind of. using words like genocide. the syrian observatory their regional group represented to me that they're against in the flood zone and that's part of it doesn't seem to be picked up by the media in general that although they quote their figures a lot they don't quote the fact that well they said explicitly to me you know heaven crocker said to me that we were against a no fly zone we don't want to war in this country we want we just want to make recy. so again that the media seems to be quite selective of the parts that they
5:38 am
pick. does i suppose the reality of. bloodshed on the ground does does play into it and see what's going on in the u.n. to certain extent but i think there's greater political forces at play here how damaging could a foreign intervention be in syria any military intervention in syria would be. very much made for worse it creates. regional confrontation. and it could even increase support for the regime when we saw you see what happens in the case of iran as well as opposition to. from within the there is rhetoric from our side of threats of either bombing from
5:39 am
israel or the us where all this talk in the media. threats allows the regimes to then say i look you have to support us because of the ways you can you know you can be a bomb and oh well these opposition people they're not genuine opposition they're just agents and so on and so forth so. i think and i'm sorry it's very. in terms of whether it's just the so-called no fly zone or any kind of military intervention very much to make things worse. the arab league solution to the syrian crisis is for prison and sad to see power his ticketing is that fair i think that's a way of keeping the regime in place and changing the figurehead that seems to be very much the g.c.c. plan in yemen for example where they wanted. to step down when. i say things keep everything apart and they were parents who vice president was. there resume regime essentially staying the same there's
5:40 am
a look what's going on in the region is there's very much a parent's a revolution to the wave revolution the sweats the region the whole arab world since. the train is enough braising was successful in proving. been any. there's a very powerful counter revolution which is led by so be very clear backed by the americans. also by it in a more indirect way by israel. and the aim of this cancer revolution is by all means to keep regimes in power and if necessary shedding the head and so you see that happening in egypt where the military rulers were able to preserve themselves and spencer and i think these same powers and they are open to that happening in syria keeping the same they're really care about democracy persuading just want whatever whatever is best for their interests and if if there would be a more manageable. regime which then had
