lpv:translated text	". Mr President, the Temporary Committee on the alleged use of European countries by the CIA for the transportation and illegal detention of prisoners appointed for four months by the European Parliament has failed to fulfil its brief. In all its work to date it has not succeeded in acquiring a single item, and I stress, a single item, of previously unknown information. As a result the committee’s report presented here today is nothing but another piece of uncorroborated media information. There is nothing to indicate that extending the committee’s mandate will bring any concrete facts to light. It does not have the tools for activities of this type. Why should we carry on wasting taxpayers’ money to prolong its existence? Why support a committee that is toothless? There are no rational grounds for doing so. Any extension of the committee’s mandate would be for political and propaganda purposes. Its activities are in any case already being used by the socialists and liberals for their own ends. They will use any pretext to attack the United States and its European allies. In this way they seriously undermine the only common front that has been created in the fight against the exceptionally grave threat of terrorism. This should not really come as any surprise to us. Historically, ever since the turn of the last century, the socialists themselves resorted to acts that today would be regarded as terrorist acts. Sympathy for such political methods persists, even in this House. It is no coincidence that the lines of division on this report are based not on its merits, or even on nationality, but on ideology. It is fundamentally a division between socialists and conservatives. In deciding to terminate the work of the Temporary Committee we will be doing a great service to the societies of our countries, and that is what I appeal for."@en1
