you're beginning to see depopulation in countries like russia and japan, many believe that japan has passed the tipping point. russia's population shrinks by 700,000 people every year. and in russia, they have tried numerous things. including creating a new federal holiday, a national day of procreation where everyone is asked to go home, turn out the lights, close the curtains and do their patriotic duty. if you take a look at what's happening across the country, one of the things when we talk about immigration is the many members of congress and people who get very heavily involved in debate, they like to move from immigration over to border security and there are two separate issues. but let me -- i want to share one statistic that surprises a lot of people. and that is that 52% of united states border patrol and customs agents are eligible for retirement this year in 2012. 51% of all customs and border protection agents are eligible for retirement this year. don't take my word for it. that statistic comes from the gao. so, when a member of congress or a presidential candidate or

frequently represented as crimes committed by individuals, the attacks that depopulated palestine were part of a military strategy or from the leaders of the emerging state of israel. the state of israel, that three of you supervisors visited as guests of the j.c. arce. this is not a personal trip. this is a political visit. the supervisors visited israel and as elected officials of san francisco. the state of israel represents an apartheid regime, that orchestrates a deliberate ethnic cleansing of the palestinian people. as our elected representatives and the people in positions of power, we are here to tell you that this is not acceptable. we ask you hold the conference with justice and the palestine should not be made an exception. >> good afternoon, board of supervisors. i was raised in the outer mission. like many who are the heart of san francisco, my father owned a store for 20 years, serving students at balboa high school. like hundreds of other palestinians and arabs, he is a cab driver in the city. my father was born in palestine in 1950. his family of 12 shared the this, and
