u.n. security council special meeting what can all of this actually do international leaders are trying to signal to the israeli government that this is critical that their response is fueling the fire rather than controlling it and they are also deeply concerned particularly the europeans that now this leads to another period of hardening between the two sides which means there will be no progress whatsoever on any type of a negotiated solution between israelis and palestinians but will expressing those concerns make a difference especially now as israel is buffeted by the support of the u.s. well it may not thorough the impress the israeli government but also the french the british the europeans they have to think about their own standing in the region and they cannot remain silent on something that they deem as escalating the conflict so they have to express their concern they have to make clear that they understand the frustrations that exist in among the palestinian people in order to uphold the credibility of their claim that both sides should come to a negotiated settlement well let
