"The Appeal to UN Secretary General Kofi Annan signed by Nobel Laureates and NGOs tacitly places the blame on Iran.
It describes the showdown with Tehran as a "Conflict between Iran and the West". While the Appeal focuses on Iran's non-compliance, the role of the United States and Israel, which are preparing to bomb Iran goes unmentioned.
"The Commission would request the Iranian government to suspend enrichment of uranium and other research activities relating to the field of nuclear technology during the period of its deliberations, in the sense of a moratorium. All conflicting parties would be called upon to desist from making any kind of threats aimed at each other."
......
Instead of endorsing an ambiguous statement, the signatory organizations including the IPPNW should address in a meaningful way the plans of the Bush administration to use tactical nuclear weapons against Iran. These plans, if carried out could result in a Middle East nuclear holocaust."

And speaking about the United (sic) Nations:

"The United Nations has never been so disunited and in such a disarray. The General Assembly has lost all its functions; and everything, apart from the boring and routine, is handled by the Security Council purely for the benefit of the five Veto-Slinging Grand Bullies and new Godfathers of colonialism.

Everything the latter preach has a similar ring to it as that of the primitive, dark-age edicts of the middle ages. They propagate the same extreme ideas of righteousness and Godliness, have the power of reversing natural logic, such that right is wrong, and wrong is right. They have enjoyed so much power that they use every tool, law-making instrument as well as any dirty trick or black magic to vilify their opponents just as they used to do in the days of Joan of Ark and Galileo. If they could throttle every free voice or aggrieved person or nation they would without any qualms. What is legal to them is totally illegal and taboo to others. They then call all that Freedom and Democracy.

The "Security Council" is now playing the role of the primitive church senates of old, firmly clinging to the old imperialist ideas as Good and consider all else as Evil. Freedom is the acceptance of slavery and democracy is the Rule of the Strong and Powerful. Anyone deviating from this is an outlaw and a terrorist and can be blown to pieces or put in their dudgeons at Guantanamo or Abu-Ghuraib or on some gulag in the newly "liberated" east European slave states. They attack anyone claiming National Interests and National Security...."
