(IsraelNN.com) The outgoing American ambassador to the United Nations has backed calls to charge Iran for inciting genocide by calling for Israel to be "wiped off the map." John Bolton is to appear Wednesday at a meeting of the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, which is calling for legal action against Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Iran also has hosted a conference this week featuring Holocaust deniers. He told visitors, "Just as the Soviet Union was wiped out and today does not exist, so will the Zionist regime soon be wiped out."
Among those launching legal action against Iran is Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz and Dore Gold, former Israeli ambassador to the U.N. They plan to file a suit in the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Iran is a signatory to the 1948 U.N. genocide convention.
