SWABI, Feb 2: Only UN should resolve the Iraq crisis and nuclear arms inspectors be given more time to complete investigations.

This was demanded by a number of political leaders and analysts while speaking at ‘Rabita Programme’ of the Abaseen Union of Journalists on Sunday.

They said that the US should give up its policy of using the world body as a “rubber stamp” for its own interests.

Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal MNA Mohammed Usman said that it was regrettable that instead of preventing wars the UN had been used by the US and its allies to victimize Muslims. He said that if it was not true then why the UN remained dormant over the killing of the Muslims in occupied Kashmir, Palestine, Chechnya, Bosnia, Afghanistan and other parts of the world.

MNA Maulana Khalil Ahmed, castigating the UN for its double standard, said it moved to disarm Iraq but did nothing against Israel’s weapons of mass destruction.

Pukhtoonkhwa Milli Awami Party leader Arshad Ali said that the attack on Iraq would only result into the killing of thousands of people and destabilize the Middle East.
