United and russia disagree on the outcome. We actually agree on the outcomes. In each of the case where we disagree where the challenges in both case how you get to the outcomes. Thats where all the diplomacy and the negotiations and the meetings are focused.

The presiding officer without objection. Mr. Moran mr. President , thank you very much. For three weeks weve seen the fighting going on in israel and the gaza strip carried on between the Israeli Military and hamas. In both gaza and israel lives, unfortunately, are being lost, homes are tried, families are devastated, security is threatened and daily life is polluted by this war. Since the fighting began, hamas has made it abundantly clear that it is unwilling to behave in any responsible manner.

It has been years over due, and i think im going to have some real positive changes for the mission. Shortly after i took Office Supervisor kim and i started tag teaming on one off exemptions to the mission alcohol special use district because while this isnt just my view that this special use district served an important purpose when it was first enacted 20 years ago in terms of combating alcohol blight in the mission. Over time in my view out lived its usefulness, and we saw a few years ago at the Bowling Alley that went on at 17th and south van ness that project w
An abomination down mission street. Nothing moved. Mission street doesnt have decent service. Additionally the one thing missing from every transportation seen that i have ever seen is a map of the hills of San Francisco. Until you grasp the fact theyre limited ways to get around the city because the mountains are in the way and the east is bay fill you have a Transit System and mind set that everything is flat and everything is walkable and bikable and its not true and the Transit System needs to be adjusted for that.
