lpv:translated text	"It was clear from the very start that Israel was going to be labelled as perpetrator and aggressor in the Gaza conflict. Goldstone and his working methods are endorsed by countries such as Egypt and Pakistan and we know the state of human rights in those countries. It is beneath any acceptable standard. The report makes no mention of the twelve thousand rockets fired on Israel from Gaza, which posed a very serious threat to the local population. Israel was exercising its right of self-defence. There is not a single word in the report about Hamas, nor about the fact that they used their citizens as a human shield or that they used civilian buildings in which to store arms and from which to launch rockets. Not a word about that. Not a word about the fact that the Hamas police force was once part of a military organisation which waged an armed struggle against Israel. Mr President, there is only one thing we can do with this Goldstone report and that is to throw it in the bin, and right away, too. We should not waste any more time on it. This is part of a political process. This cannot carry on. Put an end to this political persecution of the state of Israel."@en1
