Subject: Selective applicability of Security
Council reolutions.
Feb. 7,2003
The Editor,
The Globe & Mail
Dear Editor,
Marcus Gee states , in his article:{ "Colin Powell and the UN's
moment of truth" Feb. 7},: "The Security Council's responsibility could not be
clearer.It must enforce its own will." Security Council resolution #687, in
1991, is the primary authority for the order for Iraqi disarmament from
all weapons of mass destruction [WMD]. This resolution states in article #
14, that all countries in the Middle East should be free of all weapons of mass
destruction. Israel has nuclear, chemical and biological WMD.
Are Security Council resolutions applicable only to
Iraq?
Yours sincerely,
Ismail Zayid,MD.
