If the UN Security Council does best case scenario. Move forward with some sanctions. How long can Israel wait for those sanctions to work. Well I come here today it but you do be cold enough to do surveys. Good effect in the virtual quiet. You know be you lose. And disorganized. And community groups. So depends upon. The strengths of economic sanction and effectiveness of if it's not enough is Israel prepared to act unilaterally.
