britain's drunk democracy m.p.'s come under fire for drinking too much with allegations that important bolts are being cast while under the influence of. america day to you i'm karen tara thanks for being with us for clark here in moscow and to the top u.s. defense officials who have admitted that president obama asked the pentagon to set out military options on syria but defense secretary leon panetta and army general martin dempsey said a no fly zone similar to libya's a would be a challenge that's true the syrian army has higher competence and military capabilities u.s. lawmakers are also trying to push through up pressure bunch of financial sanctions against syria and are calling for president assad to be referred to the world

crimes tribunal but experts inside syria believe the more foreign powers intervene the more violence the crisis becomes as maria the motion out reports from damascus . as the syrian conflict stretches down to time it has also spread geographically i case of the uprising belt far from the country's borders but what's happening in syria is heartbreaking and rages and what you've seen is the international community mobilize against the assad regime strategic analyst says one thing is clear though it's certainly gun far beyond the words of sympathy and the cotton to those on the ground in syria that mobilisation has many more forms and officially stated. during the operation in baba amr the syrian army arrested fighters from gulf countries in afghanistan iraq libya and some european states their work was coordinated by qatari and saudi intelligence officers as well as cia mossad and

blackwater agents but it's also seized israeli weapons especially and take tank missiles and israeli drones the us defense contractor formerly known as blackwater and now called academy was notorious for its heavy handed tactics during operations in iraq and pakistan while the us and many other countries have admitted al qaeda linked extremists groups fighting alongside beyond opposition in syria dr salim says some countries are using those groups to further their own interests. to get local players involved in order to hide their involvement this is why we hear mostly arabs like saudi arabia and qatar or iraq these countries don't have democracy at home of course they cannot ask for a status thing in syria they have another agenda and. there are books and written sources where this plan is described in detail decades ago and had of course never blogger and freelance journalist has been investigated for

intervention no one but fears are of the lizzie's says that it could be too late to stop this all too far into flames of conflict grief and ocean r t damascus syria. reports that the pentagon is writing its forces come after president obama said a unilateral air strike against syria would be a mistake he was opposing calls by veteran senator john mccain who is herding military action against assad's troops transport caster gerald celente says washington's not interested in climate. when you hear war hawks like senators lindsey graham and john mccain calling for bombs the way it again go back and play over you see the same scenario their heads come in and they say we have to because we need to and we have to use the plough the sea in the meanwhile

they're building up the military conflict and you heard president obama say at the height of the iranian incident with netanyahu that he said you know that at this time when there is not a lot of sympathy for iran and it's only now why it's syria is on the ropes we have to quiet it down a little bit and syrian conflict is also dominating talks at the u.n. security council where libya has been accused of training out preparing syria militants discussions also touched on nato bombing campaign over libya last year during which more than one hundred civilians fell victim to alliance air raids and students the organization refuses to investigate archies marina is in new york with more on the meeting. i knew report that was quietly released by the united nations on friday that report was an investigation that found in part that nato has not

sufficiently investigated the air raids that conducted on libya in two thousand and eleven that killed at least sixty civilians and injured at least sixty five more people despite the findings of this two hundred twenty page report way too officials have refused so far to further investigate the fates how these or because he's got this report was referring to another russian pastor to the united nations batali churkin also went on to say that water has not yet been established nearly or more than a year after a nato carried out its airstrikes to allegedly bring on more peace a peaceful and secure circumstance to libya says situation is still very dangerous when you have. we have expressed concern about gun control proliferation of libyan

arms in the region however it is not just the weapons that are going abroad we have received information that in libya with the support from their authorities there is a special training center for the syrian revolutionaries and the people are sent to syria to attack the legal government this is completely unacceptable according to all legal basis this excessively undermines disability in the middle east we think that it isn't serious and therefore there is an issue as transporting the revolution now turning into transporting of terrorism in the aftermath of what happened in libya one year later the situation on the ground many critics say is not safer by any means. so i have for you on the program a new showdown looms in libya. women's rights movement rally and mobilize it nationwide as the libya's interim leaders and desperate for support pander to a powerful islamic factions. and iran nuclear talks are due for

everything. to put it you know there were accusations from. israeli and u.s. officials it seems to be some kind of israeli and american officials are playing because obama seems to. diplomacy would be the better way but in fact obama's soft power that he is using to meddle into iranian. interior. they probably will not succeed not with the economics their influence because although they will. accomplish like india even japan and south korea and others who are still importing so probably. the american administration will. provide everything and is.

a role in financing infrastructure throughout the u.s. while some welcome the foreign investors some people in los angeles we spoke to aren't so sure we should be so eager for chinese money i think president reagan is probably rolling over in his grave somewhere around. and it's uncomfortable a lot of people feel america is the you know and all be all you know so testimonies that it will create more jobs i mean potentially but with this country is in so much that so it's about. chinese firms are already working on huge bridge projects a california new york and alaska political leaders defended the contracts claiming chinese companies would be more efficient but there has been criticism over china's work conditions and the devaluation of their currency we can't compete with that now because they are better engineers because we don't know how to manufacture but because it's not a level playing field we need to get a level playing field here in the u.s.

a group that genuinely sees itself involved in a kind of cyber war where they play the part of the self-appointed protectors of internet liberty of course it's worth bearing in mind that the most this group of actually managed to achieve a shutting down master card for a couple of hours so this kind of jittery response on behalf of western governments is really an embarrassment it really does show that this is a set of governments that are completely run out of ideas and the only real response they can come up with is using the law in this kind of all for a tarion way which in the end of the day is completely pointless it's not going to prevent these ideas from spreading around i think there's a legitimate question to be asked about how the norm needs to get involved if at all in these situations but the point is that the moment anonymous and you know the arrest taking place just represent a kind of hysterical response there's no sort of there's no broader project at home what the western governments are doing in this situation it's kind of a knee jerk reaction with absolutely no content whatsoever. human rights lawyer
