"The UN structure is one-sided, stacked against the world of Islam"
About this Quote
The phrase “stacked against the world of Islam” is the real lever. It fuses disparate conflicts and policies - sanctions regimes, military interventions, the Israel-Palestine file, the rhetoric of the War on Terror - into a single narrative of civilizational bias. That move is strategic: it elevates Iran from defendant to spokesperson, turning scrutiny of its nuclear program or human-rights record into evidence of discrimination rather than accountability. The audience isn’t just diplomats in New York; it’s publics across the Middle East and Global South who have watched Western powers invoke UN legitimacy when convenient and bypass it when not.
Rhetorically, the sentence is blunt on purpose. “Structure” implies the problem is systemic, not fixable by better behavior or nicer speeches. It’s an invitation to see reform, resistance, and alternative blocs as not merely political options but moral necessities, with the added benefit of insulating the speaker from critique: if the game is stacked, losing proves the point.
