Apartheid South Africa was banned from the Olympics for 32 years.
The same people who called Nelson Mandela a “terrorist” now say we can’t boycott apartheid Israel.
They were on the wrong side of history then — and they’re on the wrong side of history now.
You don’t have “normal relations” with genocide and apartheid.
Boycott, divestment and sanctions until Palestine is free.

So the South African Medical Association just cut ties with Israel’s doctors?
Funny — during COVID, Israeli research helped track the South African variant, Israeli companies ran vaccine trials in South Africa, and Israeli tech protected South African
hospitals.
Hypocrisy level: clinical.
Here is only one example:

[WATCH] The South African Medical Association, has suspended all professional and bilateral relations with the Israeli Medical Association, citing concerns over violations of international medical ethics and humanitarian obligations in Gaza.

On a night out at @SA20_League celebrating @Laureus_sa, the opportunity to join @barneygirnun in celebrating one of sport’s great philanthropists - the incredibly generous @KP24.

I don’t look at the exchange rate between the rand and pound and jump for joy cos I’m here with pounds(over 24 today).
It makes me sad knowing how good SA is and yet the leadership doesn’t reflect that.
Hard working South Africans are financial prisoners in SA and there is NO WAY it should be this way.
Sun, sea, food, wine, mountains, medical centres, minerals, safari and a perfect time zone.
South Africa should NOT be anywhere near 24 on the pound!
My greatest wish for 2024, is that SA is in a much better position come Jan ‘25. 🙏🏽

To be clear ... I don't hate ANYONE. But I also won't be rewarding any group / business for being hateful or prejudiced.
I've boycotted @Dischem for over a year now. I'll be boycotting Diadora henceforth. And I'll do my level best to avoid Halaal food from now on too.
Bring on the bacon, baby! (Yes, I do see the irony)

Diadora threatened to stop sponsoring the cricket team if David Teeger was not fired from the team!
Azhar Saloojee, the director of Diadora in South Africa, said they “will not tolerate Mr Teeger playing in any competition sponsored by Diadora”.

Disgraceful. If Cricket SA has received these threats they should be reporting it to the police so that the antagonizers can be traced and apprehended. If the threats are real what difference would it make if this victimized young man was the captain or not?

OPINION | SA cricket’s U19 captain David Teeger was relieved of his leadership role on Friday by Cricket SA due to potential protests at the World Cup venues. @HowardFeldman writes this sends the message a "Jew with a view" will not be tolerated. brnw.ch/21wG3i1

🇮🇱Israel will face trial for Genocide in the International Criminal Court (ICC), which has scheduled a hearing next Thursday, for South Africa's lawsuit accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza.
🇳🇱 Israel has confirmed that it will appear in the Netherlands next week to defend against the charges.

South African nationals to avoid joining foreign armed forces which may contribute to the violation of domestic and international law
Statement: @DIRCO_ZA
The South African Government is gravely concerned by reports that some South African citizens and permanent residents have joined or are considering joining the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) in the war in Gaza and in the other Occupied Palestinian Territories.
Such action can potentially contribute to the violation of international law and the commission of further international crimes, thus making them liable for prosecution in South Africa.
In terms of the Regulation of the Foreign Military Assistance Act, 1998 (Act No. 15 of 1998), any person wishing to render foreign military assistance in Israel must first apply to the National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) who will make a recommendation to the Minister of Defence and Military Veterans that such an application be granted or refused.
Any person joining the IDF without the necessary permission of the NCACC is breaking the law and can be prosecuted.
In addition, the South African Citizenship Act, 1995 (Act No. 88 of 1995) provides that any person who obtained South African citizenship by naturalisation in terms of that Act shall cease to be a South African citizen if he or she engages under the flag of another country in a war that the Republic does not support or agree with.
It is in this context, that South African citizens should be made aware of the consequences of joining the IDF or any foreign armed forces involved in conflicts with a view to preventing inadvertent complicity in international crimes or violations of domestic law.
