to topple the regime of president assad so i think assad has taken a very strong position in the past support in the resistance part of the regional alliance. against israel in that region and has a very good relationship with resistant whether it's been on or iraq or i think some power specially. arabia qatar backing with the backing of the west do not like that connection and it's. interesting what you say because a lot of people have given the west a lot of flak when it comes to the intervention in libya but you're saying that you believe in a conspiracy theory that regional powers around syria have political motivations to depose the assad regime but if i may just for a moment the head of nato has ruled out imposing a no fly zone over syria which is according to our tests our serious recent report which is what some protesters have been calling for but do you think is it possible could the u.s. act unilaterally seeing how its voice the strongest opposition to president assad's regime. i think by the united states or the western powers it's backfired because the situation in syria

they blame president al-assad for the violence. >> it is al-assad's people who are killing demonstrators. the orders come directly from al-assad. he is even worse than his father. bashar knows everything. he is very well informed. his tactics are to have people killed and blamed their deaths on others. >> the officers do not want another libya, but they do want help. >> we want a no fly son and political support. we do not military intervention. >> we continue our journey to visit refugees who were not even in a camp. some of them were lucky enough to be put up by relatives. these children are in a school put up by the nation's. their teacher wishes to remain anonymous. she tells us the school was set up to help the children lead a normal life. many of them have seen terrible things. >> i wish that bashar would just go and let children live in dignity. i want the syrian people to remain united. >> a lot of children were only killed because of bashar, even though they were innocent. >> these children are now safe in turkey. but they are not giving up on their dream of returning one day to

they say the whole people are against bashar al-assad and he cannot last much longer. the arab league has made -- suggested that syria has got to stop killing its people and given it a 15-day ultimatum. the syrian opposition has gotten themselves together. there is an opposition party that could be a credible alternative to president is odd -- president assad. i met a lot of soldiers who have defected and have joined what they call the free syrian army. they said it will prepare -- they will defend the protesters. >> we have not had much reporting out of the country. you were there earlier during the protest. what difference did you find in the country between your visits? >> two things, i think. in june, the protest was far less vehement, if you like. there were still prepared to go along with president assad if he would introduce -- they were still prepared to go along with if he wouldciassad introduce reforms. they had seen what happened in libya. they were frightened of the same thing happening in syria. this time, i had a different -- ent please.fern -- plea. they

syria's president bashar al assad believes the unrest in his country has been triggered from abroad is an increasing international calls to end the violence. scores of occupy protesters arrested across the u.s. in confrontations with police as foul weather tests their mettle to keep the end type or break might go in. a court drama of colossal proportions russian moguls boris berezovsky and ron are below average throw their fortunes into a lawsuit worth billions of dollars. and russia has made yet another step towards joining the world trade organization this month and business in about twenty minutes. one pm in moscow i matras are good to have you with us here on r t our top story syria's president question the true nature of the opposition forces trying to bring his regime to its knees interview with a russian t.v. channel bashar al assad claims that campaigns being funded from abroad from iran as we're joined live by iraqis test. live outside the foreign ministry so president assad made his position clear in recent days tell us more about that. that's right so the presidents of syria

assad's father, bashir al-assad, bashir al-assad's father unleashed government security forces in theommunity hamma to repress unrest in that city. the killing that took place in february of 1982 was both indiscriminate in mass and in scale. some estimate that as many as, more than 10,000 syrians were killed as security forces literally razed the city. thomas freedman, "new york times" columnist, dedicate add chapter entitled -- quote -- "hamma rules" in his book "from beirut to jerusalem to the horror scene in 1982." hamma rules was meant to send a chilling effect to all who question that assad regime. mr. president, bashir al-assad has proven today and over the last several months if not years that he is incapable of reform. when faced with the democratic movement inspired by the wave of change sweeping across the region, the younger assad responded with his own 2011 version of hama rules, and as the world watched, as i said before, over 2,600 syrians have been killed in a number of communities, whether it's in hama or homes, rastan, talbesay and several other towns across the count

have an interest in seeing them go. >> what will assad take from this. >> assad will see this as a needp repression. and where his future may lie. it might be an opportunity for us to start providing real support for the opposition movement in syria, which are beginning to coalesce as a single political, political organization, that has meeting in turkey, they're becoming more organized, in some cases, more violent. but, do we have an interest in seeing iran's principal client in the arab world collapse? we do. >> briefly. any chance of getting the same coalition to topple assad as happened to qaddafi? i think so. they're losing patience with assad and they were close, the europeans have interests in syria. not saying we should do the same thing, but the message to assad is, choose a comfortable exile, the qaddafi was not a good one. >> paul: we haha [ male announcer ] to the 5:00 a.m. scholar. the two trains and a bus rider. the "i'll sleep when it's done" academic. for 80 years, we've been inspired by you. and we've been honored to walk with you to help you get where you want to be ♪
