A resolution calling on the United Nations to take concerted actions against leaders in Iran for their statements calling for the destruction of another United Nations Member State, Israel.

In addition to condemning Ayatollah Khomeini and Pres. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for their threats to ‘wipe Israel off the map,’ this resolution calls for fellow UN member states to do the same, for the UNSC to fully implement sanctions on Iran, and for UN member states to consider new and harsher sanctions. It also reaffirms the relationship between the U.S. and Israel.

AIPAC identified this resolution as one of its legislative priorities. It was introduced 6 days before opening session of the UNGA on 9/26, when Pres. Ahmadinejad was scheduled to speak.

25 cosponsors (14D, 10R, 1I)
