Why do we let the president of Iran come to the UN every year just so he can rant...

...about how much he hates jews? He denies that the Holocaust happened.

He wants Israel wiped off the map.

He has innocent people detained, murdered and tortured.

Why do we let this jerk come to the UN every year as if he is some type of legitimate leader?
 
In addition to the current 193 member states, the United Nations welcomes many international organizations, entities, and non-member states as observers. Observer status is granted by a United Nations General Assembly resolution. The status of a Permanent Observer is based purely on practice, and there are no provisions for it in the United Nations Charter.
Observers have the right to speak at United Nations General Assembly meetings, participate in procedural votes, and to sponsor and sign resolutions, but not to vote on resolutions and other substantive matters.
 
He is the leader of a nation - the UN is supposed to represent world countries. Amazes me that the US preaches free speech but hates it when they don't like what is said. We may not agree with his beliefs but the US still has unconvicted prisoners in Guantanamo - hypocritical methinks! Was Bush a legitimate leader in his 2nd term when thousands of voters were disenfranchised in Florida - pah!
