1 March 2008

Tehran-Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini here on Saturday strongly condemn the savage atrocities of the Zionist regime which claimed the lives of many innocent and defenseless Palestinian women and children.

According to the Information and Press Bureau of the Foreign Ministry, Hosseini condemned the Zionist regime's dastardly acts and called on the United Nations, OIC, Arab Union, NAM as well as other international organizations to take immediate action to condemn and halt such inhuman atrocities by the Zionist regime.

Taking advantage of non-conventional weapons in bombarding residential buildings in Gaza has hurt the conscience of the entire humanity, he said.

Adopting an indifferent attitude by western politicians and their selective approach in dealing with such bitter and painful events, is regarded as a cultural failure in civilization of the contemporary era, he said.

Expressing regret over the silence of western gatherings in dealing with such inhuman catastrophes which run counter to ethical values and achievements of human civilization and underlined that keeping mum or failing to take action against the Zionist regime in fact give credit for the regime to continue and broaden its crime of conducting genocide and massacre of defenseless Palestinians.
