international news life or mosco this is all she was me. thanks for joining us. up to ninety people have been killed in syria is a volatile hama province and what opposition activists clay was a government allowed ass trike the at times happened as around a thousand people were clearing in front of a bakery it also coincided with the arrival of your arab league envoy lakhdar brahimi in syria and while that means the main sport science has resulted in the civil war have come under fire from russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov spoke exclusively to our scene and our own he joins us now live with more details hello there you go or so the blood is standoff in syria is a focus of international attention right now how has the foreign minister approached a she. go out of his once again stress that could only

be a diplomatic solution to this conflict he added that russia is not taking sides and condemn syrian authorities for using disproportionate force. the security forces clearly were. prepared to face public. protests and protests in the cities and in the villages they have been through you know to counter foreign aggression not to keep law and order a civilized manner. however according to the minister this still doesn't rule out the fact that the rebels continue provoking syrian of the use and he said that it's unacceptable that the west still failing to condemn the actions of some groups within the syrian opposition who often take to the most extreme measures like kidnapping or even terrorism. it's absolutely

unacceptable and this logic we all might lead us if we follow this logic might lead us to a very dangerous situation not only in the middle east but in other parts of the world if partners in the west would start would begin to. want to qualify terrorist as. bed terrorist and acceptable terrorists. well so i asked the minister why he thinks nato was so eager to deploy these six batteries the preacher interceptor missiles on the border of turkey and syria and whether iran was the actual target here is what he had to say on this. that's what some people say. the configuration that is being presented in the media.

really looks like it could be used against the room. because i really only a few time pick started upon by russia's foreign minister as he talked about the most pressing issues of two thousand and twelve exclusively to r.t. . new york is kind of live there from krieger thank you very much indeed. and have got more highlights from lover of exclusive interview next hour but for those of you who can't wait check it out online it's already that dot com. the united arab emirates is said to be close to ordering some six to combine chants from the u.k. and may be getting a contingent of british troops to sweeten the deal british pm david cameron told soldiers that they may be headed to the gulf state as they pull out of afghanistan rights groups the on tap you saying dealings with the emirates which the e.u. called on to stop mass torture of political dissidents sends all the wrong messages

and her political analyst patrick herring says there's an ultra motive behind this . the justification for this massive build up in the middle east especially in the gulf states and. the west is blaming iran saying that because iran's pursuing nuclear ambitions or there's no proof of any to the weapons programs as such they're blaming iran for a possible nuclear arms race in the region that's a quote from david cameron only days ago so the encirclement of iran is certainly not a geo political scale number one priority and i think they've achieved that militarily but you know the question is. is this going to be a real military standoff or we looking at it a cold war situation where we just posturing militarily geo politically looking for some bigger conflict down the road perhaps in a few years meanwhile as washington miles will sanctions against iran is arlo's

marking making it clear that it's ready and willing to strike at tehran's chain of ally in the region has been law has made its play that it will take sides in case of war also has this account of reports now on what the militants function they have a it's like a road learn should be drawn right here the line beyond which lies war with iran netanyahu would like to be able to communicate to the world that. the israelis are ready which he has to attack and that it will be done with the full support of the united states threat bluff whatever the case and the tap it all but guarantee our rapid response from another nemesis of the jewish state has moema. the lebanese shia paramilitary group has evolved from a ragtag militia to a military and political heavyweight it's part of the so-called axis of resistance against israel referring to the lions between hezbollah hamas syria and iran and

according to hezbollah's leader hassan nasrallah both israel and the united states would suffer a retaliation to any strike against tehran but. the response would not be limited to the israeli entity the u.s. military bases in the entire region will serve as targets. so if israel targets iran even by itself that. america will be held accountable for this that. israel's november battle with gaza was seen as a test for a possible confrontation with iran israeli airstrikes rained on gaza in exchange came a barrage of long range mortars and rockets most were held by israel's anti-missile shield the plunger for a rocket threat from gaza the war may have showcased newly acquired weapons by palestinian militant factions but hezbollah's arsenal is thought to be of higher quality and quantity and experts say that it could launch four times as many

markets per day as hamas the details of hezbollah stop all are secret but the group's willingness to use it is not if you are you know left behind israel was shaken by a few fragile five missiles which could be counted on the fingers of one's hand how would it be able to withstand the thousands of missiles that will land on television and else way if it attacks the fellow. who was israel and hezbollah came face to face was in two thousand and six since then. hizbullah has now it collated around forty five thousand missiles off various ranges. the it's run of all part of. the range goes beyond three hundred and what's three hundred fifty kilometers which according to them at least they can reach the whole of. the south of the country this museum in the south of lebanon is designed to display has been proclaimed military prowess captured israeli tanks and
