The United States and Israeli delegations walked out of a speech by Iran's foreign minister ( Manouchehr Mottaki ) after he said that the United States and Israel were the biggest threats to peace in the middle east. Source
Mottaki told the world's top disarmament forum that Israel was the only country in the region that refuses to accede to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, and said Prime Minister Ehud Olmert last year acknowledged that his country had nuclear weapons — which Olmert denies doing.
Mottaki said that nuclear Israel posed "a uniquely grave threat to regional and international peace and security and requires to be seriously dealt with by the international community taking practical measures."
Referring to the " the Zionist regime," which he called Israel, he said that Israel had "a long and dark record of crimes and atrocities such as occupation, aggression, militarism, state terrorism, crimes against humanity and apartheid." Source
It is said the Israel delegation made a little noise on the way out of the speech to show their displeasure with the remarks.
I think that I will send them some Kleenex when I am done today!
The U.S. and Israel left because they couldn't stand to hear the truth, which is no surprise to me.
