what the u.s. was considering, what are its options about laying out the speech with a vision that secretary of state kerry is supposed to do later this week. or other types of options. but they say the u.s. never really knew what this resolution was going to say and this is why they couldn't vote on it. kate what officials are saying is the very thing we're seeing today, that the israelis are announcing new settlement construction, it was already in the pipeline, but now they're going ahead, is the very reason why the u.s. had to push forward this resolution and vote -- not necessarily push forward, but abstain from it, because of the unprecedented axcceleration of these settlements. >> ron, let me get you in on this. this might be lost on some people when it compaes to this iron class proof. why project you have the ironclad proof, that you're going to share it with the administration incoming and not provide it now?
