Members of the United Nations. The u. S. Veto is a resolution calling for humanitarian poles in garza and a stand off at the egypt guys, a border of egypt and president says he will not allow palestinians to be made to sign on the us a will crime, a mastercard and a clear violation of International Law just some of the words being used to describe as well as licensed atrocity on the people of guys that close to 500 palestinians have been killed after israel carried out and, and strike on the hospital in central gaza. Its the single worst attack on the besieged enclave and one that is bound to rage across the range and is round, has blamed Islamic Jihad for the attack and accusation. The Palestinian Group denies. The attack happened just before the us president arrived in is room and to show support job. I didnt said hes received information from the pentagon that backs up as well as claims.

Not to, im president , it for him to go into a was a but the situation is so intense that obviously there is a element of security risk. One that his advise is clearly closely looked at.
