An Appeal for the Dismantling of Apartheid and the End of Impunity

To: His Excellency Mr António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations Subject: An Appeal for the Dismantling of Apartheid and the End of Impunity

Excellency,

We write to you at a moment of grave historical reckoning, when silence has become complicity and hesitation a betrayal of the very Charter upon which the United Nations was founded. The unprecedented atrocities committed against the Palestinian people in June and July 2025— have exposed with piercing clarity the systemic violence, deception, and dispossession that lie at the core of the Israeli regime. This same regime demonstrated the transnational scope of its aggression when, on June 13, 2025, it carried out an illegal and unprovoked attack on the Islamic Republic of Iran, violating Iran’s territorial independence and sovereignty. What is now occurring is not an aberration but the continuation of a deliberate project of colonial expansion, racial domination, and cultural erasure, underpinned by a foundation of legal impunity and ideological fabrication.

Injustice, as we have learned from history, is often camouflaged by the manipulation of memory and the inversion of moral causality. The Zionist regime, which cloaks itself in the victimhood of past suffering, has forged a doctrine of domination under the guise of national self-defence. But the world no longer accepts euphemisms for apartheid. The Israeli regime no longer possesses the ability to withstand the unyielding roar of universal justice. The time has come to openly confront the myths upon which this regime was established and sustained.

Excellency,

At the outset, colonialism has always sought to exonerate itself from accusations of genocide, war crimes, violations of national sovereignty, and interference in the affairs of nations by invoking the myth of ‘that was then.’ It is a ruse designed to consign grave injustices to the realm of distant history, thereby evading present responsibility.

Yet, the Zionist regime’s record is not confined to a bygone era. From the massacre at Deir Yassin in 1948, through the horrors of Sabra and Shatila in 1982, the brutal incursions into Jenin in 2002, to the relentless bombardments of Gaza between 2008 and 2021, and most recently, the devastation wrought since October 7, 2023, these acts form an unbroken chain of calculated oppression. To relegate these crimes to the past is to deny the living reality of Palestinian suffering and to dismiss the urgent imperative of justice and redress.

As of July 2025, the Israeli regime has committed one of the most extensive massacres in modern history. Over 60,000 Palestinians, including more than 17,000 children, have been killed in Gaza, with more than 100,000 injured, according to international humanitarian sources including UNRWA, the UNESCO, the WHO, and Doctors Without Borders. More than two million people—over 85% of Gaza’s population—have been displaced, often multiple times, amidst the targeted destruction of hospitals, schools, places of worship, and UN shelters. These are the deliberate outcome of an assault aimed at collective erasure, now widely recognized by legal experts and UN officials as genocide. In this war, the very notion of civilian immunity has been obliterated, and the children of Gaza have paid the heaviest price.

In the second breath, the so-called “birth” of the Israeli regime rests on a grand deception—a calculated colonial imposition that distorts a shared human heritage. It was not founded through justice or law, but through land seizure and the violent dislocation of an indigenous people. The 1947 UN Partition Plan, often cited as its legal origin, was rejected by the very regime it sought to authorize, exposing an insatiable appetite for expansion beyond even the limited allotments proposed. Waves of settler immigration followed, enforced by land confiscations and the expulsion of Palestinians.

The Nakba of 1948 remains a historical wound—over 500 villages destroyed, more than 700,000 Palestinians exiled, their identity erased and rendered stateless. This was not a birth, but a deliberate erasure—an apartheid of memory and being, sustained by ongoing injustice. No rhetoric of birthright can conceal the colonial violence at its core or nullify the enduring rights of the dispossessed.

The Israeli regime’s illegal attack on Iran during the Twelve-Day War on June 13, 2025 is directly tied to this foundational lie. Iran has stood among the few unwavering voices refusing to recognize this imposed entity, exposing its colonial essence. The aggression was not about Iran’s supposed threats, but about punishing its refusal to submit. In the eyes of the occupier, Iran’s true “crime” is its independence, its principled resistance, and its unbending sovereignty. It is this civilizational dignity— centuries deep—that the Israeli regime and its backers cannot tolerate.

In the third light, the Israeli regime’s persistent invocation of ‘self-defence’ belies a sustained onslaught of aggression and unlawful acts that have destabilised the South West of Asia. Since its inception, the Israeli regime has violated international law, occupying Palestinian lands and expanding settlements in contravention of United Nations resolutions. It maintains a nuclear arsenal, undeclared but widely acknowledged, projecting existential threats far beyond defensive necessity. Central to the Zionist regime’s strategy is a systematic doctrine of assassination, long normalized and institutionalized as a tool of power. The ongoing war has intensified this logic of targeted killing—from the aerial murder of Palestinian commanders in Gaza to the extrajudicial killings of leaders, military commanders, diplomats, scientists, journalists, and activists in Iran, Lebanon, Syria, and beyond. This regime has not only normalized assassination but elevated it into a state philosophy, wherein violence is used to decapitate movements and dismember resistance. The same Israeli intelligence services that armed and trained ISIS in its heyday now pursue a reign of global terror in the name of “security.” This culture of assassination must be recognized and condemned as a primary engine of instability across West Asia and the broader Global South. It is the inverse of civilization—a blueprint for chaos masked in the rhetoric of counterterrorism.

These calculated provocations serve to foment perpetual conflict. The Israeli regime’s atrocities, amplified by unwavering support from Western powers, particularly the United States, function to divert scrutiny from internal discontent and mounting global condemnation. Thus, the self- defence narrative is revealed as an artifice concealing relentless occupation, militarism, and regional destabilisation.

In the fourth reckoning, the Israeli regime’s most pernicious instrument is its insidious weapon of deceit. To veil its manifold transgressions—mass displacement, siege, and the systematic starvation of Gaza—it orchestrates a vast apparatus of disinformation, psychological operations, and character assassination.

It matters not to the Israeli regime who the target is, nor what laurels crown their head, so long as the dignity of their conscience refuses to kneel before the atrocities of an illegitimate state founded upon terror and sustained through the machinery of oppression. At the intellectual and spiritual heart of the resistance stands Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, whose lifelong guidance has shaped not only the Islamic Republic of Iran but the broader resistance front across the region. More than a political leader, he is a philosopher of liberation, whose diagnosis of Zionism as a colonial and racist project has proven prescient and consistent over decades. His unwavering distinction place him in a unique position among world leaders. Ayatollah Khamenei’s leadership has remained uncompromising, strategic, and spiritually grounded— making him one of the most authoritative anti-Zionist thinkers of our time. This machinery relentlessly brands legitimate resistance as ‘terrorism,’ thereby inverting the moral order and obscuring the regime’s own perpetration of state terrorism and crimes against humanity. Journalists face censorship; media are infiltrated and manipulated; dissent is silenced. Truth, in this context, is deemed an existential threat to Zionism’s constructed narrative.

This calculated distortion serves a dual purpose: to fracture international solidarity and to justify collective punishment as necessary security. In the face of such artifice, history demands a discerning witness—one who recognises that behind the facade of security lies a reign of erasure, injustice, and unrelenting violence.

In the fifth fold, to reduce global resistance to a mere projection of special policy is to distort both history and humanity. Since the beginning of the illegal occupation of Palestinian lands—and precisely because of it—an unbroken, 80-year-old popular resistance has risen from the heart of the Palestinian people. Generation after generation has stood against dispossession, occupation, and exile, forging one of the most enduring liberation movements of modern history. Their struggle has awakened consciences around the world, igniting solidarity that transcends borders and affirms universal principles of justice and dignity.

This resistance is neither foreign-fuelled nor ideologically manufactured; it is a cry born of the land itself—a just and enduring claim to freedom. As affirmed by UN General Assembly Resolution 37/43, the right of all peoples under colonial domination to resist by any means necessary is enshrined in international law. Global solidarity with Palestine is deeply moral— rooted in the ethical imperative to oppose tyranny and the human obligation to stand with the oppressed. From Indonesia to Algeria, from churches to mosques, the conscience of the world rejects the lie that the victim must apologise for defiance. Free nations and principled governments continue to withhold recognition from the Zionist apartheid regime. The response to Gaza’s suffering now transcends moral sympathy—it is a just, humanitarian, and divine uprising. From believers of all faiths to secular humanitarians, the Palestinian cause unites a global struggle for dignity and truth. This is no longer merely a moral stance; it is a sacred obligation to protect the oppressed and reject genocide, occupation, and cognitive colonization.

Figures like Imam Khomeini, who declared Quds Day a symbol of global awakening; Ayatollah Khamenei, with his unwavering leadership of the resistance axis; and Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky, the voice of Islamic awakening in Africa, represent not regional but the spiritual and strategic vanguard of a global struggle whose true horizon is justice.

In the sixth turn, the Zionist project now stands encircled by law, by memory, and by the mounting reckoning of moral history. Since October 7, 2023 and, with greater clarity, following the atrocities of June 2025, the Israeli regime finds itself no longer merely criticised, but arraigned.

At the International Court of Justice, credible allegations of genocide and apartheid have gained institutional gravity. At the International Criminal Court, indictments loom. Across continents, university students, civil society actors, and conscientious citizens have ignited a principled revolt against the architecture of occupation. This is the irreversible delegitimization of a colonial project that can no longer mask its moral insolvency. The truth, carried by witness and word, now erodes the last pretence of impunity.

Finally, and crucially, the illusion of finality that history has spoken, that facts on the ground are immutable, and that the Palestinian cause belongs to a bygone era is among the most insidious myths cultivated by the Zionist regime. It is memory that is targeted, culture that is disfigured, and a people’s very right to narrate their own existence that is denied.

Yet, the struggle endures. It is the assertion of a people’s unextinguished right to justice. Only a democratic referendum—inclusive of all indigenous inhabitants, be they Muslim, Christian, or Jew, and excluding those settled by colonial force—can yield just peace. Until such a moment dawns, history shall remain unfinished, and resistance shall remain righteous.

Therefore, Excellency,

Based on the seven myths presented above, we assert unequivocally that the Israeli regime is inherently exploitative, defiant oppressive, war-mongering, and unjust. It is a system that has developed and expanded on the basis of institutionalised discrimination, colonial seizure, and racial supremacy. Zionist ideology and patterns of governance are not reformable. It must be fundamentally changed and eliminated as a political and legal entity in international affairs.

This is a call for liberation. Liberation from apartheid. Liberation from impunity. Liberation from a structure that for more than 80 years has perpetuated occupation, dispossession, and mass murder.

Let the nations remember: the arc of history does not bend toward militarism, domination, or the cunning arts of deception, it bends toward justice, toward dignity, and toward the liberation of the oppressed. No arsenal of lies, no machinery of occupation, and no doctrine of impunity can withstand the long moral reckoning that history demands. The cries of Gaza, the resolve of the dispossessed, and the conscience of the world shall converge; and it is not power, but truth, not force, but freedom, that has the final word.

We implore the United Nations, under your leadership, to take urgent and unequivocal action— in response to the atrocities committed in June and July 2025, and more importantly, as a historical reckoning for the accumulated crimes committed over more than a century against the Palestinian people.

With the deepest sense of urgency and the highest regard,

Now is the moment to contain it—decisively, lawfully, and without delay. We urge Your Excellency to act.

Respectfully submitted,
