lpv:translated text	"Madam President, my group is deeply shocked by the violence that has once again flared up in the Middle East. The people of Israel live in grief, fear and anger, but they at least have political freedom, elections, economic development and the hope of a better future. It is in Israel’s interest that the Palestinians also have hope for the future. People who have hope have something to lose. Without hope, there will never be the willingness to enter into compromises. How can people be expected to hope as long as settlements are being built in their back yards, as long as collective punishments are being meted out for the outrages of the few, and as long as Europe does not take a stand against the gross violations of international law? It is a delusion that more force and more suppression will make the Palestinians more compliant. There should be an international peace-keeping force monitoring the implementation of the Mitchell Agreement so that a start can be made with the immediate withdrawal from occupied territories and the immediate dismantling of all settlements. Finally, I would like to ask the Commission a question. European projects have been destroyed in Israeli attacks; Commissioner Patten himself has already mentioned the forensic laboratory. How extensive is the damage, and can Commissioner Patten promise that the Commission will recover the loss from Israel?"@en1
