European Union foreign ministers gathering for a council in Brussels were greeted Monday by 4,500 pairs of empty shoes laid out on a city square to memorialize Palestinians killed by Israeli forces over the last decade, an epa-efe photojournalist in the Belgian capital reported.
The Palestinian Lives Matter protest was staged by the activist and petition website Avaaz in the Place Jean Rey outside the European Council building and called for a boycott of Israel.

THAT IS A LOT OF TERRORIST
WILL THE E.U. STOP THE ROCKETS FROM GAZA ?
Fools !!!The Israelis should line up thousands of shoes from all the thousands of Jews that died from suicide bombs stabbing etc.
Line up shoes of palestinians killed by palestinians.
They think using large sized shoes, will make a bigger statement??
they forgot to line up the 10 million shoes to commemorate Nazis killed by the allied forces.
