Peres: Iran unwanted guest in Mideast

[TriWooOx]

Israeli President Shimon Peres points the finger of blame at Iran over Tel Aviv stonewalling the establishment of a Palestinian state.

In an address to the UN General Assembly on Wednesday, Peres claimed that the Israelis occupying Palestinian lands enjoy a 'democracy' that suffers because Iran 'divides the Middle East'.

Since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Iran has refused to recognize Israel for its occupation of Palestinian lands as well as the numerous crimes committed against Palestinians - crimes which have been condemned by even close Israeli allies.

"It (Iran) built a danger to the entire world. Its quest for religious hegemony and regional dominance divides the Middle East and holds back chances for peace, while undermining human rights," said the Israeli president, who administrates a regime notorious for genocide and the imposition of 'collective punishment' on natives of the land.

"Israel has shown that democracies can defend themselves. We do not intend to change," he said.

Peres also accused Iran of providing support to the Hezbollah Movement, which played a major role in repelling the Israeli invasions of Lebanon.

Several UN Security Council resolutions condemning Israeli actions against Palestinians have been defied by Israel. The US, Israel's number one ally, has also exercised its veto powers to prevent the adoption of 42 anti-Israeli resolutions sought by the council since 1972.

Since 2004, Washington has vetoed three resolutions which called for Tel Aviv to halt its operations in the Gaza Strip - which had been occupied by Israeli forces from 1967 to 1994.


The exercise of veto powers by the US has led to a continuation of rocket launches by Tel Aviv into the strip, causing the death of a large number of civilians.

After declaring the strip 'a hostile entity' in September 2007, Israel curtailed travel into Gaza and cut fuel and electricity supplies to the region.

As Gaza depends upon external healthcare systems for the provision of a broad range of medical treatments, the Israeli imposed military blockade forced chronically ill and terminal patients to desperately seek passage out of the coastal strip.

Physicians for Human Rights-Israel released a report in August, titled Holding Health to Ransom, exposing 'the methods of coercion' Israel has employed to pressure Gazans and to spy on the strip.

According to the report, the regime prevents such patients from leaving Gaza to receive medical treatment unless they can provide desired information about their relatives.
