Hatred of Israel at all-time high

A top Iranian parliamentarian says the setting up of a committee by the UN Security Council to probe the Israeli raid on the Gaza aid convoy is only aimed at wasting time.

Chairman of the Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Ala’eddin Boroujerdi also decried the Israeli attack, and called on the UN Security Council to send the case to the International Criminal Court.

He further told the Mehr News Agency that the assault on the aid flotilla amounted to attacking all countries.

He underscored the raid on the aid convoy has heightened hatred of Israel to the max, even in Western societies.

In reaction to the non-binding resolution which came out of an extraordinary UN Security Council meeting and demands the formation of an impartial committee to investigate the Israeli attack, Boroujerdi said the US continues its illogical and unstinting support for the Zionist regime.

He said the attack was a clear indication of the Zionist regime’s sheer desperation and weakness.
