ten am in the russian capital you're watching r t. i'm joined here on arab league envoy to syria kofi annan will seek talks between syria's opposition and the governments when he travels to damascus on saturday embattled leader bashar asad has signaled his willingness to talk but some rebels have angrily dismissed the idea out of hand but as maria finished now reports from syria it's not always clear a word of the calls to fire on are coming from. i think. once purely a day of prayer friday has become one of the fines cross the arab spring countries in syria this new tradition has gone even further with activists online giving every friday its own very special name reflect the opinion of the street or of the syrian people and to also send a message to the external world of all of the syrian situation. but the days of
1:02 am
names like dignity and honor from last march have come to an end with calls to arm the rebels and the president to come in the main message from those protesting against the regime so a lot of torture people saw a lot of killing people and saw their families are being killed in front of their eyes so i think this is just natural to ask for killing. a prisoner coming many however argue that these hostile messages are a tool to provoke more violence and the steering the country toward civil war is i was trying to. affect. people of my own people think. this is the way to syrians to kill syrians. here and violence with things that made us. or symbolically in the history of syria and
1:03 am
of course to read some political progress and all the government protests here in syria have a very. rough few things usually known before the day friday the place the time of the prayer and even the cause they're gathering for and the slogans they're chanting i usually make public in advance and this thing changes or deal with the basis. so exactly who is behind these messages. it is now the common subject among people in general not just on t.v. but i don't know specific source him and then i heard from the people around me my friends are actually television. some yes. well and i don't know there are some people who name every friday but it doesn't interest me i think you should ask them. i think i heard something on t.v. not needing t.v. the trail led us to a website called syrian revolution it is here that the name of the coming friday is
1:04 am
usually published supposedly after people vote for it it said it represents all of the session groups strangely enough the syrian national culture nation committee the opposition within the country say they have nothing to do with a site oh another place where voting is carried out cannot be accessed from syria of course the walking is electronic voting. and you better be sure he's real or not it's honest or not while it's not clear who really stands behind the idea some names like china is killing us or no veto to just an agenda that's not looking to compromise and seek a peaceful solution to the conflict a little that was once friday called syrian national council represents me to try to change people's mentality friday before prayers and god when people feel unity with themselves has become a day for violence now and the room sure makes their people and the still weak and
1:05 am
divided with the rhetoric growing stronger every friday many here are starting to question who is really pulling the strings trying to escalate the violence and race nationality damascus. to libya now where the interim prime minister has thanked the u.s. for what he called tremendous support in overthrowing water khadafi butt. the worries are facing an uprising of their own from a group of powerful tribal leaders who have acquired partial autonomy in the east of the country but why alice pappas cobar told r.t. that washington is likely to take little interest in political developments in post gadhafi libya we have a little puppet in tripoli cut for nato as we call it not the stuff up to joel he say that he's going to be intervening and so he's going to be what if you know where to look at that for two point zero it's going to intervene against the people of syria nika all over again because they are splintering the tribes in eastern
1:06 am
libya have been antagonizing the central government tripoli for decades if not centuries and this is a second what's happening because of the sprinter nato doesn't care of course the u.s. the brits and the french don't care as long as they have contracts with tripoli the alliance between especially against between a washington a well known in paris and the g.c.c. they want to take over and then distribute the spoils and who cares about the future of libya as their mockers is going to be war warring shoots tribal feuds that is going to go on for ever. samar a second be revised researcher for a syracuse university says that what's happening in eden now under a western backed government is exactly what prompted for military intervention in the first place. the country is in chaos right now it's heartbreaking and
1:07 am
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 fingers 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's 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 and other tribes and so it's very difficult political solution is required for this certainly not a military one. but watching r.t. coming to you live from moscow still ahead on the program no word to my british authorities peek into the online activity of
