Brussels, October 17 (RHC)-- In Brussels, Belgium, leaders of the European Commission and European Parliament led a moment of silence for victims of Hamas.  The EU leaders did not mention Palestinian civilians killed by Israel. 

Landmarks across Europe were lit up in the blue-and-white colors of the Israeli flag — the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Bulgarian parliament and the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, where earlier several hundred protesters defied a ban on pro-Palestinian demonstrations.  Several protesters were arrested. 

Elsewhere, hundreds in Vienna, Austria, defied a ban on protests to call for an end to Israel’s assault on Gaza.
