The General Assembly should adopt a resolution expelling Israel from
membership in the United Nations, as envisaged in article 6 of the
Charter. Even if the expulsion could be blocked by a veto by the
United States, the General Assembly could still assert its authority
by denying accreditation to Israeli diplomats, as it did 1974 with
regard to Apartheid-South African diplomats. At that time it was a
matter of Apartheid, an crime against humanity. Today we are
confronted with a far more dangerous situation emerging from Israeli aggression, war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.
The General Assembly should call on all states to immediately break
all commercial and diplomatic relations with Israel and take
appropriate measures to arrest of Benjamin Netanyahu, who should be
tried by the International Criminal Court in The Hague. The arrest
warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant were already issued on 21
November 2024, seven months ago, and have not yet been implemented.
IsraelAs unprovoked aggression against Iran raises fundamental issues
about the authority and credibility of the United Nations and more
generally about the continued validity of international law and an international order based on the prohibition of the threat and the use
of force. Particularly corrosive are the statements by Ursula von der
Leyen and G7 leaders in support of Israel. Such statements make them
complicit in the crimes. We are witnessing an open rebellion against international law and morals u conducted by Israel and supported by
the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Germany and other
States that have turned their backs on the UN Charter.
In 2003, the US aggressed Iraq on completely false claims that Saddam
Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Approximately a million lives
were lost. In total impunity. Now the US and Israel are using the
same playbook to attack Iran with a view to enforcing regime-change,
but employing evidence-free allegations that Iran is building a
nuclear bomb and has an offensive nuclear weapons program, whose
existence is denied even by the US Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard.
Israel has no right to oself-defenceo against Iran, because Israel is
the aggressor and has grossly violated article 2(4) of the UN Charter
and Article 5 of the Rome Statute. It is Iran that has a right of
self-defence against the unprovoked Israeli aggression. Let us not
forget that Iran was in the middle of diplomatic negotiations as
envisaged in article 2(3) of the UN Charter. This surprise assault on
Teheran constitutes perfidy and demonstrates a very high level of
cynicism and bad faith.
Israel is a country already engaged in a vicious genocidal campaign
against the hapless Palestinians. Pursuant to the International Court
of JusticeAs Advisory Opinions of 9 July 2004 and 19 July 2024 the
Israeli occupation of Palestine is illegal and Israel is obliged to
withdraw from the Occupied Palestine Territories, recognize the right
of return of refugees and expellees, and must also pay compensation to
the victims. Evidence presented before the International Court of
Justice in the case South Africa v. Israel on the issue of genocide is conclusive that genocide is being committed before our eyes. It is the
urgent duty of the international community to stop this genocide and
to stop IsraelAs ongoing aggressions against its neighbours. Israel is
out of control.
On 17 June 2025 the Geneva International Peace Research Institute
issued this call to the United Nations and to all men and women of
good will.
oBy bombing Iran, Benjamin Netanyahu has violated article 2(4) of the
United Nations Charter and article 5 of the Rome Statute. This act of unprovoked aggression cannot be excused by reference to a non-existent
doctrine of apre-emptive attackA, which George W. Bush had invoked to
attack Iraq, and does not fall within the meaning of Article 51 on the
UN Charter, which allows for self-defence.
On 14 July 2015, Iran signed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action
(JCPOA). On 8 May 2018, President Trump announced the withdrawal of
the United States from the Vienna agreement and imposed a series of
maximum sanctions.
One year after the US withdrawal, suffering from sanctions, Iran
resumed uranium enrichment beyond the limits set by the 2015
agreement.
Israel possesses between 200 and 300 nuclear warheads outside the
control of the IAEA, to which it denies access to its facilities. Double-standards cannot be applied without loss of authority and
credibility.
Once again, Israel, the United States and their supporters are
flouting international law and participating in a conflict that could
lead to nuclear disaster.
GIPRI calls for a return to international law and the negotiations
that this implies.o
It is time to acknowledge that the Zionist experiment has failed
because it was an anachronism, a colonialist project from the
beginning. The UN should assume control over Palestine as a UN
Administered territory.
The international community can no longer tolerate that a country like
Israel violates the UN Charter and international law with impunity.
Netanyahu and his cabinet must be arrested and prosecuted.
The double-game played by the US with Iran has a fall-out with regard
to the Ukraine war. Considering that the US engaged with Iran in
negotiations and at the same time conspired with Israel to attack
Iran, it is clear that the US can never be trusted.
Deceiving Iran about negotiating a nuclear deal while preparing a
military attack against Iran is what is called perfidy in
international law. The lack of good faith by the US is breathtaking.
The same bad faith was displayed by Angela Merkel and Frantois
Hollande in 2014 and 2015 when they took the Russians for a ride with
the Minsk agreements, which Germany and US only saw as a ruse to gain
time.
Russia would be reckless if it were to trust any commitments made by
the US or NATO countries u even if written in stone. Once a liar,
always a liar. US and NATO are engaged in a frontal attack against international law and morals.
