Brussels, 05/10/2004 (Agence Europe) - In a letter to President Borrell, the French President of the GUE/NGL group, Francis Wurtz states that the Israeli military operation "days of repentance", started by Ariel Sharon's troops in the night of 28 September, should be debated by the European Parliament on Wednesday 13 October in Brussels, just after the declaration on the results of the Prodi Commission. "Given this escalation of violence, our Parliament cannot remain silent or confine itself to the role of a spectator. It is our duty to intervene and criticise the unacceptable", wrote Francis Wurtz, who points out that this operation, involving 200 armoured cars on the ground plus air support, killed over 60 people in four days in the Gaza Strip.
