Russia is banned from the World Cup for invading, occupying, and killing civilians. Israel is doing all of that with U.S. backing So FIFA suddenly needs nuance, process, committees, and legal review. Apparently war crimes become “too complex” when the weapons have American receipts.

Want a sense of where Israel is right now? The most prestigious writer's festival in the country invited JM Coetzee (Coetzee!) to be its plenary speaker. When he replied with a brusque "no", the festival director wrote him a ridiculous and deceitful rebuke, then published it.

Yes! Yes! These fabrications were so grotesque.. why would ANYONE make something like this up and why would so many believe them without pause? Every interview started with "Do you condemn..." All guests on Western media were obliged to begin with condemning fake stories yet no one gets asked if they condemn Israel's PROVEN rapes of detainees, killing of babies, bombing of shelters, targeting of journalists, aid workers, Christians, Muslims, schools, hospitals. Israel's cruelty is only matched by its lies.

If you think about it for a moment, it really is mind boggling how stories like the “Hamas mass rape” and the “40 beheaded babies” spread unchecked like wildfire… your mind would have to be primed by so much racism to believe such crazy things without a lick of scrutiny

It’s absolutely amazing observing South Africans trying to explain to western journalists how they can differentiate between an African immigrant and a local; just by simply looking at them.

Mmmm.... So I have read and reread this piece. A few things stand out. The premise is flawed from the start. No one needs to be “welcomed” into their own home. South African Jews are not visitors to this country. They are part of its rich fabric; historically rooted, civically engaged, and widely respected for their contributions in many layers of our society. Such contributions and heritage are not favours that can be deployed or withdrawn everytime some feel aggrieved. Contributions to our homes are just natural actions and must never be issued as blackmail and threats when other family members don't behave the way we want. There is a serious misreading of both South Africa and its people. It tells me that the author sees himself outside of the country and its people. A division whose origins he must interrogate and answer HONESTLY, for himself - is it the noisy political and ideological differences over Palestine that make him feel unwelcome or his inability to bend South Africans towards HIS position? But perhaps the more interesting question is this: Who is this claim really about? Because to speak of “feeling unwelcome” in one’s own country is BOTH a political and an existential statement. It raises a deeper discomfort. Does the author, perhaps, harbour doubts about his own belonging? Does he, consciously or not, see himself as standing slightly apart from the soil beneath his feet? Does he question whether his roots here are as solid as they ought to be? And who first planted the idea in his head, that he belongs elsewhere? news24.com/southafrica/ne…

And Coetzee is so reclusive, never ventures into current affairs except through his sharp pen. It is significant and magnificent that he has used his magical pen to describe the state of Israel as it truly is. The additional reflections on Israeli society at large are also bold and timely. BRAVO!

J.M. Coetzee is a magnificent writer. And, naturally, his rejection of an invitation to a literary festival in Israel is also magnificent. Brief and unsparing.
