Tehran  - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Saturday that the United Nations and its Security Council have lost credit over the crisis in Gaza Strip.

"After more than two weeks, the UN Security Council has finally issued a resolution, which is however vague from the beginning to the end," Ahmadinejad said at a religious ceremony in Tehran, referring to the latest UN resolution calling on an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

"Who do you want to fool (with these resolutions)? These one-sided and inhuman decisions have no credit anymore among nations and this bogus system of the Security Council should once and for all be fundamentally changed," Ahmadinejad said.

ISNA news agency reported that the Iranian president also called on a relocation of the UN from New York as "one has to wait for several months for an entry visa" to the United States.

He further charged the US of imposing its demands on the UN and called on a change of the current veto right system within the Security Council.

"I recommend (all relevant sides) to correct their stance. Every drop of the blood shed in Gaza is a war crime record against you to which you must eventually reply," the president said.

In another part of his speech, Ahmadinejad also blamed the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) and Egypt for their passive stance on Gaza.

"The OIC was established for supporting Palestine but has remained silent. This silence will be a blemish of disgrace which you have forever put on yourselves," he said.

The president also referred to Egypt and reports that also Cairo sought the collapse of the Hamas group as part of the anti-Israeli resistance.

"The Egyptian government should clarify its position in this regard," Ahmadinejad demanded.

Unlike the Iranian press and public, the government has so far adopted a quite cautious stance on Cairo's reported support for the Israeli aim to eliminate Hamas. It was the first time that Ahmadinejad directly referred to Egypt by name.

Observers believe that Tehran neither wants to get involved in a diplomatic crisis with Egypt nor with Jordan as both could affect Iran's ties with the rest of the Arab world.

Ahmadinejad had earlier this week said that resistance was the only way to confront Israel in the Gaza conflict but he has started extensive diplomatic efforts and dispatched 22 envoys to several Asian and European states with the aim of an immediate stop to the crisis and blockade of Gaza.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that Iran would offer all necessary support and help to the Palestinians. He did not clarify what kind of help Iran would offer.

Iran has several times denied military aid to Hamas, saying its support for resistance groups in the Palestinian Territories and Lebanon (Hezbollah) would be limited to the spiritual and political and not the military. (dpa)
