lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the peace process in the Middle East is extremely fragile. Such a situation requires tact. Provocations such as those initiated by Mr Ariel Sharon, must be refrained from. However, violence is not a legitimate response to provocation, and calling on the population to use violence certainly is not. If the European Union wants to be a reliable partner in the peace process, it will have to unequivocally condemn provocations and calls for violent action. To this end, my group has tabled two amendments to the resolution to that effect. It is not acceptable only to condemn Israel if the Palestinian leadership is still using violence as a possible tool in the negotiations. It is heartrending if children are sacrificed in a battle which should be settled around the negotiating table. The position of Jerusalem is a moot point in the negotiations. I call on this Parliament to follow the Biblical line: pray for peace in Jerusalem so that the Jews and Arabs can live together in peace."@en1
