Damaged, completely destroyed as you can see here and the big problem for people is that they arent getting enough food, water, and obviously they do not have adequate shelter at the moment.

We have heard from the u. S. Secretary of state, john kerry on the geneva meeting. What did he have to say . He is defending the lack of a deal saying they need to be careful that this takes time, but i can tell you that the delay could have consequences for the Obama Administration because the u. S. Congress is poised to weigh in. It looks like they may pass additional sanctions this week they are saying that would be seen as a sign of bad faith. Congress could almost limit any sanction relief that the president could offer. So this is a very high stakes week when it coaches to the negotiation. The secretarys message to congress is you have to trust us. You are not blind. I dont think we are stupid. I think we have a pretty strong sense of how to measure whether or not we are acting in the interests of our country and of the globe and particularly, of our allies like israel. And gulf states and others in the region. We are absolutely determined that this would be a good deal or there will be no deal. Now, thats why its hard. Thats why we didnt close the deal here in the last couple of days. Sounds like he had gone on the defense over why there has been a delay. Do you think people will, congress will take his words on board . They are lobbying to have that happen. We did he from benjamin netanyahu. His power has often been more with the congress than with the president. He said he is going to do more than lobby and he is definitely being heard by some members of congress who are now applauding the french for scuttling these last round of negotiations. He is saying the sent rivfuges dismantled. But he doesnt have the final say here. Congress would have to vote to eliminate any sanctions. What we are going to see this week is a battle between the administration, which normally gets leeway from congress but on this issue, it doesnt look like so far the israeli lobby has the strength to push this through.
