lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the best conflict prevention measure is respect for human rights. Unfortunately, Sharon does not even remotely live up to this respect. It is detrimental to every peace effort that the international community is allowing Sharon constantly to violate international rules. To condemn Israel is not enough: measures need to be taken. The EU could begin by suspending the trade agreements. Clearly Israel is entitled to protect its citizens against terror attacks, but Sharon's persisting violations of human rights, including extrajudicial killings, are not protecting but endangering its citizens. It is contrary to international law; it totally undermines the very concept of the rule of law, which is a key element in the fight against terrorism. Israel could easily arrest suspected terrorists, instead of killing innocent passers-by, of whom many are women and children, using exactly the same despicable means as suicide bombers. The Palestinian Authority cannot stop suicide bombings when Israel deliberately fuels everything that leads to them, thus sharing the responsibility for them. In many cases, Israel has used extrajudicial killings against exactly those Palestinian leaders who have been strong advocates for peace and for stopping the suicide bombings. Sharon's state terrorism is no substitute for political negotiations such as the Geneva Accord and the roadmap, which Israel is now abandoning."@en1
