The Economic and Social Council of the United Nations voted in favor of the removal of the Islamic Republic • "The fact that the greatest oppressor of women in the world was a member of this committee is another crazy distortion that led to the organization's impotence," stated Israel's ambassador to the United Nations Arden • "This is a small but significant step"


"A small but significant step":

the UN's Economic and Social Council voted today (Wednesday) in favor of removing Iran from the UN's Commission on the Status of Women.

The decision was passed by a majority of 29 companies, 8 opposed and 16 abstained.

"The fact that the world's greatest oppressor of women was a member of this committee is another crazy distortion that led to the impotence of the UN," stated Israel's ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan, who voted in favor of the impeachment decision.

"This step is a small but important step. But the really significant step must be for the countries that signed the nuclear agreement to announce today that the nuclear agreement with the evil regime in Iran is null and void. Such an agreement paves the way for Iran to have weapons of mass destruction and will pour billions of dollars into it to continue murdering more Demonstrators and women.'

Moreover, Ambassador Erdan compared the regime of the Ayatollahs in Iran and the Nazi regime: "The Iranian regime is the embodiment of absolute evil just as the Nazi regime was the embodiment of absolute evil.

The decision to oust Iran should be supported by all of us and those who do not support it are collaborating with the oppression and murder of women, the international community refused to act against the oppression and cruelty of the Iranian regime, therefore the Iranian people chose to take their future into their own hands.

We Israelis salute the Iranian people and their courage and see them as an ally."

The decision comes at a time when Iran is dealing with the hijab protest that is shaking the religious country.

The protest began following the death of Massa Amini, a 22-year-old young woman who was beaten by the modesty police after being arrested in the capital Tehran and died of her injuries a few days later.

Amini was arrested because she violated the country's strict dress code and refused to wear a headscarf.

Meanwhile, protests continue and intensify in Iran.

According to the human rights organization "Iran Human Rights", at least 277 civilians have been killed so far in the protests, including about 40 children.
