KARACHI: An all-party conference on Palestine on Monday called upon the United Nations to revoke the membership of Israel for its aggression on unarmed civilians in Gaza.

The demand came in a resolution at the conference titled “A clarion call from bleeding Al Quds” held under the aegis of the Palestine Liberation Foundation (PLF) Pakistan.

Those who spoke at the APC included Pakistan Peoples Party leader Senator Taj Haider, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Salim Zia, Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s Ali Raza Abidi, Majlis Wahdat-i-Msulimeen’s Allama Amin Shaheedi and Allama Sadiq Raza Taqvi, Jamaat-i-Islami’s Muzaffar Hashmi, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf’s Shamim Firdous Naqvi and others.

The leaders agreed that Israel was an illegitimate state that was imposed on Palestine by global imperialism.

They called for a united stand of Islamic states against the fresh brutality of Israel.
