Thousands Rally for Kidnapped Israeli Soldiers in Brussels

[European Jewish Press] Yossi Lempkowicz and Sarah Williams - 3,500 people joined a rally in Brussels Wednesday in front of the European Commission and the European Council of Ministers headquarters on the day the European Parliament opened its monthly session, to show solidarity and support for the families of the three Israeli soldiers abducted this summer. "Europe has a particular responsibility to make that UN Security Council Resolution 1701 be applied," said Roger Pinto, head of the French Siona organization. The resolution calls for the immediate and unconditional release of the three soldiers. Speakers criticized the fact that the International Red Cross was unable to give the families any information about their sons. Roger Cukierman, head of the French umbrella group CRIF, denounced the use of European money to help "bloodthirsty people for whom the human being is a bargaining chip."
