Expel Israel from the United Nations
The Issue
Dear Mr Riviere
As our European permanent representative to the Security Council, we are asking you to make the following proposal to the UN General Assembly.
The proposal is to request the General Assembly to vote on the immediate expulsion of Israel from the United Nations. This is based on Article 6 of the UN Charter, which states that
‘A Member of the United Nations which has persistently violated the Principles contained in the present Charter may be expelled from the Organization by the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council’
The Proposal
That the General Assembly will put forward an immediate motion to vote for the expulsion of Israel from the United Nations.
In line with Article 6, Israel has violated all principles of Chapter 1, Article 2 of the UN charter, which defines the obligations of a UN member. Principles 2-6 relate directly to the Member states and are as follows.
2. All Members, to ensure to all of them the rights and benefits resulting from membership, shall fulfil in good faith the obligations assumed by them in accordance with the present Charter.
Israel has persistently failed to fulfil its obligations by the Charter. This has been further evidenced by its disregard of the International Court of Justice interim ruling in January, whereby Israel was ordered to ‘take all measures to prevent genocidal acts’. The ruling was disregarded by Israel, with any such measures discounted and countless genocidal acts perpetrated.
3. All Members shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered.
Israel has acted beyond its ‘right to defend itself’ by killing over 50,000 Palestinians since October 2023 and now over 2000 civilians in the lebannon. It has endangered international peace (the spirit of maintaining international peace is the over-arching principle of the UN charter): Since April 2024, Israel has bombed Beirut, Lebanon and in July 2024 bombed Iran. These acts have caused a direct threat to security in the Middle East.
The core meaning of ‘Justice’ has been violated by Israel by actively blocking humanitarian aid and targeting civilians.
4. All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.
Israel has persistently used force to occupy Palestine. This has been ratified by the UN International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling of July 19th 2024 which stated that Israel’s continued presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory “is unlawful”, and that “all States are under an obligation not to recognize” the decades-long occupation.
5. All Members shall give the United Nations every assistance in any action it takes in accordance with the present Charter, and shall refrain from giving assistance to any state against which the United Nations is taking preventive or enforcement action.
Israel has not assisted the United Nations and has taken no actions in accordance with the UN charter. In the past decade Israel has been condemned in 45 resolutions of the United Nations Human Rights council (UNHRC).
Dear Mr Riviere, Israel has clearly ignored and violated the principles of the UN Charter, in addition, it has ignored the ICJ ruling on its illegal occupation and the ICJ orders to prevent genocide. As a matter of the greatest urgency and to prevent the extermination of a people, we ask you to put forward this proposal to the UN security council
