syrian people but the days of names like dignity and honor from last march have come to an end with calls to arm the rebels and kill the president becoming the main message from those protests and 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 mean this. is a cutie the president not coming many however argue that these hostile messages are a tool to provoke more violence understeer in the country towards civil war and. to. effect. people might. think. this is the way to prove syrians to kill syrians who want to connect to fear and violence with noble things that made us great dignity or symbolically from history of syria and of course to read some were to call purposes although the

growing stronger every friday many here are starting to question who is really pulling the strings trying to escalate the violence and reflection r.t. damascus. maybe an hour of the interim prime minister has thanked the u.s. for what he called tremendous support in overthrowing model khadafi but the new levy and authorities are facing an uprising of their own from a group of powerful tribal leaders who have declared partial autonomy in the east of the country political analyst pepe escobar told r.t. that washington is likely to take little interest in political developments and post cut off libya we have a nato puppet in tripoli. need to as we call it not will start up that will show you he's saying that he's going to intervening so he's going to be what you know where to look at roughly two point zero is going to intervene against the people of syria michel all over again because they are splintering the tribes in eastern
