(John Bull stands for England, as Uncle Sam stands for the United States. )Hancock's signature on the Declaration is four and three-quarters inches long- an inch longer than his usual signature.

Washington does not have formal veto power when it comes to council statements. But it is able to block the draft single-handedly because council rules require that statements be unanimous and supported by all 15 of its members. Violence and bloodshed in Palestine is getting more serious during the past several months, and the Israeli military is criticized for over-reacting to protests by Palestinian people, causing serious casualties of civilians.

They face a maximum sentence of life imprisonment on each charge, if convicted. Ibrahim and Mohammed were arrested in a police raid on a public housing estate in west London on July 29, eight days after knapsack bombs on three trains and the bus failed to detonate.
