let's get more details on this now ahmed joined live by adult aleutian professor at university in jordan thank you for coming on r.t. today the u.s. is looking for ways to help the syrian people but barack obama said america is not going to arm the opposition do you think a helping hand offering weapons could be extended by other countries the gulf states for example. well i think that is pretty clear that the rebels have been receiving arms from abroad and syrian television has been showing almost daily shipments of arms being smuggled into syria via lebanon turkey and other border crossings so where is all of these weapons coming from these weapons are coming from all over the place and since the rebels are being supported by the g.c.c. and by nato it is safe to assume that they are getting their financing and their weaponry from the same sources that are offering them political cover and financial backing so as you're saying if weapons really are indeed coming in across the border from lead but on and turkey then those barhai in these weapons shipments what are their motives here are

political process especially if we keep supporting corrupt national and corrupt local leaders like ahmed karzai is family members people like karl rove seek people that we know to be corrupt know to be war criminals but we arm them anyway simply because they were enemies of the taliban now if we want to have a lasting impact in afghanistan you know we can support things like election reform like supporting people who are advocating for the rights of women in afghanistan but doing that with guns is absolutely not the right policy against what has been done to car taliban influence in the rio grande or has there are influence in the region waned at all. well i think part of the problem in our attempts to get them to the negotiation table is the united states has been successful at killing senior leaders of taliban membership but those are just replaced from the bottom and the negative impact that that actually has had is brought to our more radical younger leaders in the taliban that actually are less willing to negotiate an end to the war i mean let's be honest based on what we've seen mi
