The article “Syria: over 5,000 deaths forecast for September” was written  Damien McElroy, and Richard Spencer and published on September 27. The article carries a lot of comments on the theme of the growing The death toll from fighting in Syria's civil war. It is necessary to note that activist groups that track death tolls said that more than 5,000 people were forecast to die this month alone, substantially above the 4,000 that died in August. Then the authors gives us another statistics - the worst month in the Iraq conflict - after the initial invasion - accounted for 3,028 lives, in July 2006. Analyzing the situation in Syria, it is necessary to note about the prediction of the United Nation Refugee agency that up to 700,000 Syrian refugees could flee abroad by the end of the year. Speaking about Lord Owen’s opinion, the former Foreign Secretary, he warned on Thursday that the scale and nature of conflict would eventually demand a united response from Russia and the West. Giving appraisal to the situation, it is necessary to point out his statements: “This is a full scale civil war and my experience is that only an enforceable ceasefire will end it” and "Time is not on our side given the ghastliness of the fighting, the number of massacres and horrors of sectarian divisions becoming permanent facts on the ground." Referring to the Lord Owen’s interview for the Daily Telegraph, the authors pointed out that he calls on Nato to use its formal ties with Russia to start talks on enforcing a no-fly zone in joint arrangement that would not target the regime of President Bashar al-Assad. There is every reason to believe that Vladimir Putin, Russia's president escalated the "blame game". There is open secret that Vladimir Putin accuses the US and others of sowing chaos in Syria: "The most important thing is that our partners cannot stop themselves," he said. "They have already created a situation of chaos in many territories and are now continuing the same policy in other countries - including Syria." Taking into account Michael Clarke’s opinion, the head of the Royal United Services Institute thank tanks, it must be noted that he predicted Syria's neighbors would be sucked into choosing sides in what is likely to be a drawn-out battle. Meanwhile David Cameron condemned the Russian and Chinese government for blocking UN-backed action to stop the conflict in a speech to the UN on Wednesday. The authors of the article gives us Mohammad Mursi’s view of this problem – he opposed calls from the Emir of Qatar for a military intervention by Arab League states, while a meeting he had called of the Middle East "quartet" - Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Iran.  In conclusion the Authors quote Prince Turki al-Faisal, a former Saudi Arabian ambassador to America: “Nato and some combination of other states would eventually be forced to intervene to quell fighting. That requires military force. For somebody to deny this at this time is, I think, deluding themselves.”To sum it up Damien McElroy, and Richard Spencer gives us statistics - While Syrian opposition groups put the overall death toll in the 18-month war above 30,000, Amnesty International puts the toll at 21,000-plus.

As for me, I’d like to hope for the best like Lord Owen’s suggestion  that ceasefire will end the war, but frankly speaking I don’ see any precondition for it. It is obviously impossible today as well as establishing of the democracy not only in Syria, but in all countries of the North Africa. The USA and all its NATO allies try to stanch the best from this situation, positioning themselves as peacemakers. However, this approach won’t yield any good results. The only thing we may do for me is to wait – it includes our help, of course, but without any political pressure, because it the latter case we will get an opposite result.
