Iran demanded Tuesday that the United Nations Security Council condemn what it said was Israel's clandestine development and possession of nuclear weapons.
Javad Zarif, Iran's ambassador to the UN, said in identical letters to the council and to the secretary-general that the Security Council should "condemn Israeli regime's clandestine development and possession of nuclear weapons, compel it to abandon nuclear weapons, [and] urge it to accede" to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.
Zarif said the Security Council should demand that all of Israel's nuclear facilities be subject to inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency and be placed under its safeguards program. "Should the Israeli regime fail to do so, the council must take resolute action under Chapter 7 of the Charter to ensure compliance," he said.

Ulasan: Has the UN the gut to face Israel? A small country yet arrogant. Dear Americans, do not let the few Jews to control your government and side with Israel in matters endangering the mankind.
Can we forget that we should help one another in righteousness? The prophet (S.A.W.) said, ''Support your brother whether he is the transgressor or the transgressed. '' They said, ''How can we support our brother if he is the transgressor? He said, ''By preventing him from transgression.'' [Reported by Imam Bukhari].
