UN Joins Iran Calling for Israel to be Wiped Off Map

First, Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, called for Israel to be wiped off the map.

Now he says "that the Jewish state was a "tumour" and should be moved to Europe.

The UN seems to agree having just hosted the "International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People" complete with map without member state Israel on it.

"This map was prominently displayed by the UN on November 29, 2005 at a public gathering at UN Headquarters, in the presence of all top three UN officials, the Secretary General, and the Presidents of the UN Security Council and the General Assembly. It purports to be a "map of Palestine." Israel, a UN member state for 56 years, is not on the map. Even the UN General Assembly partition lines of November 29, 1947 marking a Jewish and Arab state, which pre-date this 1948 map, do not appear."


Just another reason for Annan to go and for us to stop funding the UN.
