hello and welcome to our c twenty four hour news live from moscow i mean you know our timeline story now the most gruesome episode in syria's uprising is quickly turning into a p.r. battle as each side and their allies torsion blame for that slaughter in houla just our day just for our just four days after the murders of over one hundred men women and children the media has been flooded with images furthering one or the other gender and as our first reports authenticity has taken a backseat. when the b.b.c. ran the space a from mistakingly claiming it was syria it led to some fierce criticisms somebody is using my images as propaganda against the syrian government to prove the massacre i'm really surprised that an organization like the b.b.c. cannot be bothered to check sources and is ready to publish any image sent by a citizen activist or journalist or whoever they are the b.b.c.
1:02 am
is like a british bomb in club it's always support stages wars and even though there's no conspiracy the reporter will wrote this i'm sure they were told you it's part of a general malaise. in the b.b.c. that schools intervention and the use of major. developing nations from the very beginning the syrian crisis is seen to be distorted and blood at every turn and by both sides throughout the last months the world seen fake video reports and false statements that this hasn't quelled the sensation hungry media from jumping the gun on any shocking piece of news coming from the country ravaged by conflict amid schools that the peace plan is now failing visited damascus in a statement he said. the government to take steps to signal not just serious in its intention to resolve this crisis peacefully and this message of peace is not only for the government but for everyone every individual

with a gun but while many media outlets loudly condemn the regime there has been little criticism of the open and blatant funding and arming of the syrian opposition a move that is served to massively undermine ceasefire attempts and now the war drums again seem to be beating john rees from the stop the war coalition called this the benghazi moment the moment where things are portrayed as being so bad that there's no other option but intervention some of us who've been around long enough who are a member cry in the western press some from western governments over similar occasions in kosovo will remember the way in which saddam hussein regime was characterized because of its trustees in iraq the same rhetoric john says could lead to even more lives lost we saw what happened in libya with this everybody understood the gadhafi regime. with a horrible dictatorship but when the west into the and we ended up with thirty five
1:04 am
. already is estimated that more than ten thousand lies have been lost in the conflict the death toll continuing to rise even whilst the un observers have been in the country but inside syria and amidst the devastation there is still hope for syria that doesn't involve repression intervention we are completely against. arming the uprising. as well as we are against. we declared very clear very loud the mistake made by the b.b.c. to show the real problems when covering the syrian conflict the events of recent weeks of also showing that the mudslinging finger pointing at accusations that have been such a mark of the syrian crisis have only served to me further away and not closer to the truth and it's a truth that the people in syria have been paying with their lives sara.

lunde. and commenting on the b.b.c.'s blunter with the wrong picture journalists and human rights investigator at home and snow says there's simply no way you could have been posted by mistake. this particular photograph claiming to be a massacre of children in syria was years later a major element of the gander accusing saddam hussein's government of killing all these children often first by so it was a nasty piece of propaganda it was very well known where his photograph came from if people believe that this is accidental or if it's citizen journalism they are really deceiving themselves if you are certainly used to have on the war the manufacture of consent as we were given by the book by nonchalance different of the claim that we can't get journalists into syria i think is nonsense there are cia agents there room m i six if there are most not agents all over the place in syria at this very moment as they were in libya manufacturing fox images about libya claiming to be you tube videos that were citizen journalism you can see from the
1:06 am
label activist and photo from activists i mean that's nonsense to the b.b.c. just doesn't do that they don't pull down photos from an activist and post and without everything they do is fact checked this is propaganda no mistake no action . not jumping to conclusions over the who the tragedy must be a priority says russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov backing up his warning he pointed to the balkans war the ninety's when nato launched its intervention citing a civilian genocide an excuse that later leaks contradicts it and seven political analysts objective coverage says the comparison is apt. atrocity management has done wonders first for the bosnian muslims during the bosnian war ninety two to ninety five and then for the cost of albanians in the run up to the need to bombing of one thousand nine the political utility atrocity management is immediate and we have to ask in this particular case who has to gain from this situation certainly
1:07 am
not the syrians slaughtering innocent civilians under the noses of international observers this thing stinks to heaven and i will do it but my last gold medal that we are indeed looking at a case of premeditated cold blooded murder of civilians by the serial by the syrian rebels in order to provoke international intervention and we are covering syrian deaths and our correspondent maria for notion that carried out her own investigation into the noms trafficking network that supplies syrian rebels and just keeping us up to date on that through her twitter feed and she talks to a number of arms dealers and smugglers one of whom was particularly proud of his latest acquisition from the body of the syrian officer killed so check out maria's feet with a chilling reality of arms trafficking. that's coming up in the program this hour academic epidemic summit economic class calls think problem of grabbing illiteracy
