FM urge UNSC to end Zionists' crimes

Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki on Thursday called on the UN
security council to take necessary steps to put an end to the Zionist
regime's aggressions.

"As the ongoing aggression threatens the international peace and
security, we request that the security council carry out its
responsibility in accordance with the spirit of the UN charter and take
necessary steps with a view to putting an end to the aggression", he
said.

"In my view, your personal intervention should, as always, help prevent
the situation from slipping out of control," said mottaki in a letter
to Kofi Annan on Thursday.

Mottaki recalled the UN's important role in this regards and said the
UN should act with a view to prevent the Zionist regime from continuous
flouting of the will of the international community, manifested in
numerous UN resolutions.

The full text of the letter is as follows:

"In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

"July 29 ,2006

"Excellency,

"I wish to draw your kind attention to the most recent military
campaign by the Zionist regime against the innocent Palestinian people
which goes on in flagrant defiance of the most basic principles of
international law and the fundamental provisions of the United Nations
Charter.

"As media reports indicate, the ongoing incursion into northern Gaza
targets civilians and purely civilian infrastructures, destructing
among other things the three bridges and disabling the only power
plant, thus depriving the civilians from basic necessities.

Moreover, the intruding forces are battering northern Gaza towns with
artillery and firing missiles into residential areas indiscriminately.

"The illegal detention of dozens of Palestinian cabinet ministers and
members of the Palestinian Parliament by the intruding forces are clear
signs indicating that the occupying regime is intent on rendering the
democratically-elected Palestinian Government inoperative.

"Violating Syria's airspace and threatening to hit targets inside that
country is as much perturbing. The crisis, if unchecked, may tip
towards escalation, engulfing the whole region.

"With the Palestinian economy already broken down under an embargo
since January and the Palestinians remaining under siege even after the
occupiers withdrawing from Gaza, the new aggression threatens to
inflict further enormous suffering on the civilians and exacerbate the
situation within the Palestinian territory and in the region.

"While strongly condemning this latest Zionist criminal act, we
consider the aggression that targets the civilian infrastructures as
collective punishment and war crimes and crimes against humanity in
defiance of international humanitarian law.

"We believe that it is imperative for the international community to
get more effectively involved and prevent the Zionists from carrying
out their terrorist designs against the Palestinians. The impunity with
which they have so far been allowed to carry out their crimes has
undoubtedly emboldened them to continue on the same path.

"The UN has an important role to play in this regard and should act
with a view to preventing the Zionist regime from continuing to flout
the will of the international community, incorporated in numerous UN
resolutions. As the ongoing aggression threatens the international
peace and security, we request that the Security Council carry out its
responsibility in accordance with the letter and spirit of the UN
Charter and take necessary and prompt steps with a view to putting an
end to the aggression.

In my view, your personal intervention should, as always, help prevent
the situation from slipping out of control.

"Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.

"Manouchehr Mottaki "Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Islamic
Republic of Iran

"H. E. Mr. Kofi Annan Secretary-General, "United Nations, New York."
