Subject: U.S. Hypocrisy.
The Editor,
The Globe and Mail
Dear Editor:
In the midst of George W. Bush's campaign to invade Iraq, Rami Khouri
correctly , in his article: {"Statesman or bully....." Sept 18},displays the US
hypocrisy, in calling on the UN to show its credibility in enforcing its
resolutions against Iraq, while overlooking UN resolutions against
Israel.
Israel stands in defiance of 63 Security Council resolutions, over
the last 50 years. That is not to mention scores of Security Council
resolutions against Israel, vetoed by the US.
It is time to put an end to this hypocrisy and practice of double
standards, if the UN and the US are to be credible. Israel must not be allowed
to remain above international law.
Yours sincerely,
Ismail Zayid.
