what i can tell you is that the secretary of state anthony blanking is headed to meet with the is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and he will be traveling on wednesday. what we know is that part of those conversations will include the discussion of safe passage for the residents of gaza, folded into that conversation will also be officials from egypt. because of course, the question becomes, although the residents of gaza are unfortunately being warned about the bombings that may be taking place of apartment blocks and so on. the question becomes, where are they supposed to go? there is no place for safe refuge. and so as a result of many humanitarian groups and international groups have flags, the fact that there is no where to go. and so this discussion of safe passage is being discussed. the national security advisor 6th. 8 of and spoke to white house reporters on tuesday, does not elaborate a lot about what discussions are underway, but certainly has a says those are discussions that the secretaries state has embarked upon. and so just to put it in context then is the think

last 2 weeks, the outlet here in the united states has discovered that the secretary of state anthony blank and reached out to the guitar. a foreign minister. unbeknownst to us and attempted to get us to tone down our rhetoric. in other words, what they didn't like is us showing both sides of the story. this is not new for algae 0. we always cover both sides of the story. that's what we do. and that's part of our mandate, and we've known for some time is real, doesn't like that. and the united states government that supports these really, governments apparently doesn't like it either. so this is what is being reported. we've been accused of being a mouth piece of hum us and even though cuts are, has been instrumental in securing the release of american hostages and is really the only dialogue that the united states government has with high loss. still the secretary of state is unhappy with our coverage and i should tell you that's consistent with what i've experienced here at the white house. if we ask tough questions, we don't get called on and the way those press briefings, sometimes for
