believe the more foreign powers intervene the more violent the crisis becomes as are his riff national reports now from damascus. as the syrian conflict stretches down to time it has also spread geographically echoes of the uprising belt part of the country's borders what's happening in syria is heartbreaking. 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 gone far beyond the words of sympathy and according 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 kotori and saudi intelligence officers as well as cia mossad and blackwater agents but it's also seized israeli weapons especially

in taking 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 kind of link to extremists groups fighting alongside beyond authorization in syria dr salinas 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 first they're pushing it in syria they have another agenda. there are books and written sources where this plan is described in detail decades ago and how to coach never blogger and freelance journalist has been investigated for an important and serious crisis since last

year she says this is a story every three main chapters weapons smuggled across the border overseas contractors and foreign cash. when you see a lot of money in syria then you will be i believe that this is comparable to what happened in the civil war in lebanon there were plenty of money then you would find not the governor book about hundreds of dollars or something nobody would kill him so. now you would see now this is happening here in syria with more and more reports on international involvement emerging and calls to the opposition getting louder even to put those at the grassroots of the uprising the initial euphoria is turning heard the news on my behind. i can say we regret what we did but we didn't want things to go back for a while it turned so much militarized globalized and blow and we never wanted and

don't want intervention now but fears are abdulaziz says that it could be too late to stop this all the current flames of conflict raif an option r t damascus syria. well reports the pentagon's reading its forces come after president obama said a unilateral a strike against syria would be a mistake it was opposing calls by veteran senator john mccain is verge of military action against assad's troops trying to force general solent he says washington is not interested in the progress. when you hear war hawks like senators lindsey graham in john mccain calling for bombs away and again go back and play over and see the same scenario their heads come in and they say we have to be calm we need time and we have to use diplomacy 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 it at this time when there is not a lot of sympathy for iran and it's only now why syria is on the ropes we have to quiet it down a little bit. solenn thick with the syrian conflict also dominating talks at the u.n. security council with libya has been accused of training and preparing syria by militants discussions also touched on nato as bombing campaign over libya last year during which more than one hundred civilians fell victim to alliance air raids incidents the organization is refusing to investigate his report as a new york with more on that meeting. a new 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 it conducted on libya in two

thousand and eleven that killed at least sixty civilians and injured at least fifty five more people despite the findings of this two hundred twenty page report nato officials have refused so far to further investigate the state's how these or the casualties this report was referring to now the russian bastards 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 nato carried out its airstrikes to allegedly bring a more peace a peaceful and secure circumstance to libya this situation is still very dangerous but what i wanted to do 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 due syrian revolutionaries and the people are sent to syria so it's hard the legal government this is completely unacceptable according to all the will be says the security undermines disability in the middle east we think that al qaeda isn't here and therefore there is an issue as transporting the revolution now would 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. and the head of libya's interim government threaten to use force to bring powerful tribal leaders to heal after they declared of ptolemy for an oil rich region in the east the leader of the national transitional council went on to claim the program for you infiltrators were behind the move but patrick hails from the online world affairs magazine spike says he only sees him poke recy almost couldn't make insult. you now the head of the national transitional council

there a former gadhafi crony himself the minister of justice under gadhafi he's now threatening to use force against you know the kind of the eastern region. because they decided to act autonomous lee i think that's very worrying you know one this is an unelected representative saying this until you know how can you justify this you know how can he actually say i'm any better than gadhafi if i'm going to use brutal force if i'm going to use coercion to try and keep my country together so it meets with my will which is not the will of the people because i haven't been voted it's staggering i mean really here the hypocrisy there is just there for everyone to see and that's why very sadly we're seeing pockets of libya effectively discloser off into sixty states and go back to you know go back to the kind of tribal divisions that they had before libya was kind of unified as the states in the fifty's and

also commenting on the situation in libya. beirut based research for the syracuse university says that what's happening in libya right now is what caused the intervention in the first place. the country is in chaos right now it's heartbreaking and outrageous as president obama said about the situation in syria no this iteration in libya is the way we hear about militias torturing people who are suspected of supporting qaddafi in the past and there was a hideous story today about someone's thinker's getting cut off because he was horsewhipped on the hand repeatedly over and over again until his fingers were severed these are crimes against humanity that are happening in libya and there is no outcry by the international community the same international community that called for a no fly zone in libya to save civilians to save people's lives so really it's a very dangerous situation we don't know who has what capacity right now to attack

other people in other tribes and so it's very difficult political solution is required for there certainly not a military one still ahead funa program and you showed rooms in libya the women's rights rallies and mobilizes nationwide as libya's interim leaders desperate for support pounded a powerful islamic factions or a good reporter mark coming up also nuclear talks jus for a fresh round of hopes they will drown out his saber rattling silences israel's to looks poised to strike. representing the british people in parliament could be first book and it seems some of these are enjoying the perks of the commons a little bit too much with a late night brought just one of a number of alcohol induced episodes a london correspondent laura smith looks at why the word order is more likely to be heard in a bar but in the chamber. yes rukus behavior by members of parliament now not an uncommon sight on our t.v.'s ever since the late

them it's a stranger's car where unpeaceful rival parties often clash so much drunken revelry goes on there that it's they used to be a little arrow nailed about fifteen centimeters from the floor which indicated the exits to those who were crawling out on their hands and knees outside the rarefied atmosphere of westminster in towns and cities around the u.k. binge drinking is a huge problem inside it seems is no different last year sarah willis to the m.p. and m.d.c. said some parliamentarians are too drunk to stand up in debates and have no idea what they're voting for tory m.p. mark reckless admits he was too drunk to vote on the two thousand and ten budget and insists he doesn't remember. and m.p. . paul farrelly admitted wrestling a newspaper seller near a parliament bar although he maintains he wasn't drunk most recently and he eric

that iran is working on nuclear technology for peaceful purposes and everything is . assumptions or to put it accusations from. israeli and u.s. officials it seems to be some kind of theater of the israeli and american officials are playing because obama seems to convince. diplomacy would be the better way but in fact. soft power that he is using to meddle into iranian. affairs they probably will not succeed not economic sanctions because although they will. still countries like china india. and south korea and others who are still.

a top priority but the u.s. lags behind europe and china when it comes to infrastructure investment yet ministration has said that chinese firms look play a role in financing infrastructure throughout the u.s. well 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. and it's uncomfortable a lot of people figure america is the you know and bill you know sort of testimony that it will create more jobs and the potentially but. this touches in so much that . it's about. chinese firms are already working on huge bridge projects in california new york and alaska political leaders depended the contracts claiming chinese companies would be more efficient but there's been criticism over china's work conditions energy valley we know their currency we can't compete with that not

because they are better engineers or 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. some blame excessive environmental regulations and political bickering in d.c. for our inability to invest more in infrastructure and investment many see as the key to economic recovery they keep in the u.s. competitive and what it seems the chinese are willing to make a los angeles valley in the r t. head to our web site our congress stay up to date on all our top stories and also found plenty more reports and great videos on there as well as a few of the stories we've got lined up for you tonight a very different kind of challenge for the russian army it is the military's new high tech ed drop church you're looking at there designed to give a heaven sent morale boost to soldiers. and there's the women's day celebrations hit full throttle in russia the country's formula one team appoint
