the french president francois hollande says he openly supports the formation of a provisional government by the syrian opposition as mass deaths in the conflict torn country springboard another round of the media war. looking to new horizons egypt's turns its attention towards the east president morsi has to china hoping to back billions in economic deals. the british immigration system is under fire after more than one hundred fifty thousand illegal immigrants at the pump accounted for after arriving in the country.

in the russian capital you're watching r t was marina joshie paris has made its latest move in the political gambit over the syrian crisis french president francois hollande has called on syria's opposition to form a provisional government saying france won't hesitate to recognize it our correspondents are still your reports on what this means for the conflict. the french president laundered issued a statement with several points when it comes to syria first of all he had urged different rebel groups and opposition members to come together to form a representative provisional government now he said that if and when they do this france is ready to recognize this group now we know that on the ground there are still divisions and different factions of rebel groups however on the outside we also know that there are several members of different opposition groups such as the syrian national council the muslim brotherhood among others who've already been meeting for a few months now are drawing a road map for a post assad syria and they are set to release their plans and their findings in

the coming weeks and again. rating bear future support for a government formed by the rebel groups and aside from that a lot had also said that any use of chemical weapons by the assad regime would justify a direct for the intervention now this echoes what the u.s. president barack obama had said just a week ago and also along the says he's looking at to create a buffer zone within syria and this is to follow on the idea that turkey had pushed forward to manage the increasing number of refugees flowing into neighboring countries we've already seen some conflict in the neighboring lebanon on however any humanitarian buffer zone and that they're calling it would involve some sort of military operation and military involvement. in order to safeguard the safety of civilians who are listening to all this rhetoric especially coming from along this does echo of his room in a sense of what his predecessor had said just

a year ago with regard to syria also before that with regard to libya we see from the rhetoric and from the moves the actions of western leaders as well as their allies that it is clear that they do want to get involved in the syria crisis one way or another in one capacity or another be that a military involvement as well. washington has been has a tense in supporting the french president's call over the formation of an interim government and number of officials in the obama administration have said the syrian opposition isn't ready for such a move back or from the antiwar answer coalition believes it's unacceptable and dangerous to grant power to those currently representing the opposition that's very odd and ironic in fact completely hypocritical to have the french government saying to the syrian opposition you form a government and we'll recognize you i mean that's just a script from the good old days when the colonial powers operated through proxies

there was an opposition a big opposition to the assad government in syria that was against violence against civil war and particularly against foreign intervention they've been pushed to the side and in their places the free syrian army so-called the so-called syrian revolutionaries who are nothing really at this point other than the chosen proxies of the foreign powers so it will be they those who control the monopoly of violence that is the nato powers themselves who will be the ultimate determiner of what the character is of this new so-called opposition government or what they will declare to be the legitimate government of the syrian people. now the recent emergence of reports of mass deaths in a damascus suburb caused a hailstorm of media criticism against the syrian government the target of the thing they are pointing was as usual beyond doubt but the release of shocking related footage by syrian t.v. has drawn a completely different picture i see two we're going to looked into yet another round of the never and big media battle. thousands of people dead and the conflict

between anti assad fighters and government forces seems nowhere near close this becomes all the more obvious as horrifying images like these continue to surface this is a syrian television report featuring gruesome footage from a damascus suburb slaughtered civilians men women teenagers and children. they killing women and children in cold blood. entire families slaughtered bodies burned witnesses and the injured left in shock i didn't know who did this to me i know nothing about the whereabouts of my husband and my children my husband works for the security forces i have two boys and a girl terrorist spread among survivors seek help us get rid of these gangsters speak you'll be destroyed everything we are unable to do nothing i don't know anything about my family please help us who they are those behind this massacre of

yet another group of civilians in syria remains unclear now tradition in the syrian conflict both sides point fingers at each other as armed groups claim the assad regime is behind the slaughter the assad army says it was on a mission to hunt down armed rebels in the affected area throughout the syrian bloodshed numerous human rights reports say civilians have been used as human shields by armed opposition groups something largely ignored by the western media waging a war of its own often eager to blame the assad government as part of their push for regime change on august thirtieth the want security council is scheduled to hold a ministerial meeting on the crisis at a time when the whole world is puzzled about what to do about syria the incident in dariush or to play into the hands of those who are trying to increase support for the fight against assad and r.t. moscow. also have for you the program while the west. lates over the possibility of

enjoyed your favorite. t.v. is not required to watch all its all you need is your mobile device watchdog to be any toy any part of. the society from moscow now the u.k. is planning to launch a crackdown on illegal immigration next month's growing weary of massive numbers of people abusing the country's flawed system many come to britain then vanish into thin air with authorities unable to trace them argue sarah first has a story. the black hole of the u.k. immigration system easy to get in but no one's been properly tracking who should be and is going out last month chief inspector john vine revealed just how bad things at the u.k. border agency were guessing when he discovered more than one hundred fifty thousand migrants that have been refused the right to remain in the k.

had simply disappeared some people may have left the country some of them most still be here i think the key fact was that the agency had no idea how many were actually still in the country and how many are left and the u.k. immigration rules migrants who have been refused the right to remain at twenty eight days to leave the country but it's a long running problem with enforcing these rules has left the border agency struggling in the wake of the revelations the government began talking tough immigration minister damian green said new warning sent to immigrants would reduce the number who are able staying their visa in a statement to us he said we're also working closely with other government departments to create a hostile environment which makes it much harder to migrants to live in the u.k. illegally the government's made a lot of noise about its efforts to cut immigration but at the total seven hundred billion pound government spending budget just one point nine billion is allocated to the border agency that's just

a third of one percent it's an incredibly small amount and historically underfunded and still cripplingly under-resourced the u.k. border agency is now under pressure and the latest revelations that more than one hundred fifty thousand migrants the missing could just be the tip of the iceberg let me explain why one hundred fifty thousand figure came from the couch where people have applied to extend. a fuse and then go into a much bigger pot. or it's harder and different people try to come up with different results. million sounds about what number of people are here. which. immigration lawyer tells us this is the buddha agencies to have any hope of reducing the number of missing migrants they need to radically change their approach i think you need to essentially stop promoting a very tough line because the people who absorb the top flight in the media or of course the markets themselves and they don't come forward if the u.k.

promote a transparent fair line and say we'll take every case individually. they want to go but these individual groups can stay those people would come forward this hundred fifty nine would go down instantly and then applications could be processed properly instead it seems it will be a neat database that will be depended upon to track down those staying in britain illegally expected to launch next month among the companies bidding for the tender is g. four g. four s. the company that created a high profile controlled the sea recently when it failed to deliver enough stuff for the olympic games this seeking the multi-million pound contract that's the place to aid the clean up of a catalogue of disasters and mismanagement in the u.k. immigration system so if. london. watching r.t. live from moscow and will be changing gears later this hour. they don't like you. they feel jealous. while these women from palestine have defied their

housewives destinies to become something different the top draw a racing car drivers male dominated world. the meantime the us republican convention has gone off to only a low key start in the state of florida due to fears over the approaching tropical storm isaac the gathering is expected to endorse mitt romney as a party challenger to barack obama upcoming presidential race this november romney is running slightly behind the current incumbent in most opinion polls and needs a boost in popularity obama. the probable ratings origins are only presidency but are now tumbling because of high unemployment aspirations have also been held with around one thousand protesters gathering for a peaceful rally but a sociology professor william robinson says the two parties don't really offer much of a choice to us voters there's no real significant difference between the republicans

and the democrats with regard to the economic program both parties are beholden to transnational corporate interests particularly to the banking interests of oil interests to the u.s. military industrial complex both parties are receiving of authority the funding from these sources both parties as well in terms of their domestic their economic program are following very similar proposals that is to liberate the big corporations to liberate banks to liberate capital from public constraints this is a longstanding reality of u.s. electoral campaigns increasingly their personalized increasingly the real issues at stake the vital issues for the people in the united states and worldwide are not dealt with and increasingly they are simple simply personalized the terms this is nothing new in u.s. politics there is one difference of substance and this is coming out in the campaign big grin and that is that the obama administration has been pursuing what we could call a very limited neocon as you mentioned in a little more social programs that are

a little more real and really those are the only ice fields are the only significant differences right now between these two parties in their presidential candidates. later this hour our team talks to author and policy studies expert andrew levin on is a upcoming election and he says the risk between the once of most americans and what politics offer is growing. at the level of underlying political vision or underlying political orientation there isn't that much difference and romney would probably be perfectly happy doing what obama does we have a media which is so terrible that control and. all the institutions that manufacture opinion are so pervasive and our electoral system has become basically like an advertising it's become a sales promotion's we have a very profound disconnect between what people want in any

recognized meaningful and recognizable sense of the term and what the political process offers in the way of full of alternatives. the libyan dream interior minister resigned on monday and it fears of renewed sectarian clashes in the country this after the religious sides were destroyed by armed salafist triggering mass unrest in the area libya remains unstable ever since the popular uprising resulted in the ouster and death of its longtime leader mahmoud khadafi last year. where the editor of pan african news claims the country's current rulers supervise the destruction of the mosques and are unable to control the country. the fact of the matter that this mosque could be destroyed in such a centralized location with so-called security forces standing around observing it then ostensibly supervising the destruction of these religious sites clearly in the

case that. form a. government which is now calls itself the general national council is not presiding over a lawful society in fact there presiding over a lawless and we also have to keep in mind that there's a lot of. cost of nation about the lack of services in the country the overall lack of security in libya and also the large scale unemployment and the economic downturn which has taken place there since the overthrow of the gadhafi government late last year and we have nothing about this travesty of justice coming from the united states or the united nations which played such a key role in the bombing last year of libya as well as the overthrow of the government and the escalation in the ongoing support. now is take a look at some other stories from around the world these riots in can use coastal
