having elections and going through the process of the democratic process that will rid us of the army council ok and this is the situation we're in now carl feingold you again looking at it's taking we could maybe change the angle here is the outside looking in a bijection situation in the election that the impending election i just can't help but feel that the the west particularly the united states would like to see the military stay in control of egypt in one form or another or over a very slow time period phased out because that's an ally that's a strategic ally it's not the status of egypt it's the egyptian military that's their ally right now and all of these fanning about. you know though. the the muslim brotherhood is going to take over and the fanaticism and all that but still you still that still see that in the mainstream here i just can't help but the west would like to see much slower change in egypt and other countries look at bahrain for example. absolutely i mean this is one of the most important a side effect if you like of the arab spring is it explores the decline in their

here, and the council doesn't formally connect itself to the free syrian army, but they're all working for the same thing. they're saying this attack that's just been reported was carried out by the free syrian army, and it seems to have been quite an ambitious attack on an air force intelligence compound. the air force intelligence branch of the syrian security forces has been very involved in the crackdown on the opposition, and it's deeply feared it's one of the worst places you can go, according to figures, if you get detained. so it will be a natural target. it seems, from what local residents are saying, there was very fierce fighting, the sounds of explosion and gunfire. we believe this compound was attacked by defecting soldiers with the free syrian army using heavy machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades. we don't have any more details on that, but it's certainly ambitious. the compound is just outside damascus. damascus has been more or less spared the opposition moves against president assad and been much quieter than other parts of syria. the cou

they have is a military council running the country ever since for barak step to have is essentially full of mubarak appointees and it seems to me that the behavior of the army and indeed the police towards the demonstrators in tahrir square exam is provocative really they're playing that far because if the elections are postponed because of the behavior of the military then presumably the council see itself as a longer in power of course permanently and that will then provoke more demonstrations and a whole new uprising across the whole country it's completely undemocratic the military of always had a president as the official agent from politics the high ranking officers enjoy an extremely privileged position and financially lives were actually independent of the state in many respects this is any. challenge you see with the free you can have a huge battle it seems to me the brush has become even before people rich in history can place i hope that the military begin to see some sense and recognize that they have got to withdraw from the politics will see. what you're not see now russia has called the new american sanctions targeting iran's financial and en

there won't be a direct intervention by nato but they are arming the syrian national council and the free syrian army via lebanon and via turkey and this has been confirmed by everybody including. lincoln admission in paris which is the best informed french daily that weekly newspaper it's a satirical paper and the turkish press everybody knows that this rule army is being armed but i nato by qatar and by saudi outside of syria's borders but the most important point in my opinion now is the role of turkey because starcade they had a policy that they call zero problems with their neighbors that was stablish by their prime minister and now they're creating a problem with syria an effect they had an alliance it was still around that moscow's ankara and now this completely disappeared and now they are advocating destabilizing the mosques and they know the problems will be enormous including for themselves the turks why why why would turkey give up. what interest when they have in front of dismantling that relationship that they've had with area well christina we need ours that's good to explain that let'

government but it seems like they're throwing their lot in with the syrian national council and the free syrian army and supporting them surprisingly openly. and so it's not a funny old world of the best of times with her ironic isn't it that this big deadly crash lands a government protest is it another middle east country or a distant yesterday passing through the streets that yes yes no reaction of that from the u.s. and its allies but it seems to be a very different story when it comes to syria one of these differences between syria and bahrain for instance but i think that's the case with a lot of countries and we haven't just seen it with the united states we've seen it with saudi arabia who has roundly condemned the crackdowns in syria but actually took part in the crackdowns and bahrain. a lot of these countries are trying to use the arab strain which is merely a winter at this point to their own ends and hoping that whatever comes out of them is going to benefit them and if it doesn't look like it's going to benefit them then they're not so supportive we've seen the pictures over the last w
