KICKING IRAN OUT OF THE U.N.?

Kicking Iran Out The U.N.? (NYSun)
"The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs announced Tuesday that it had enlisted Nobel Peace Prize laureate Elie Wiesel and internationally renowned lawyers Irwin Cotler and Alan Dershowitz to its campaign to expel Iran from the United Nations," the Jerusalem Post reports.

The JCPA will be circulating a document at the UN calling for Iran's ouster based on the UN Charter, which says that member states "that have persistently violated the principles contained in the present charter" can be removed.

The JCPA is maintaining that Iran has violated the convention against genocide by its threats to Israel and pursuit of nuclear weapons, as well as abrogated the foundational charter's requirement that member countries "refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state."
