Speaking during a Pro-Palestine protest in Cape Town Struggle Stalwart and Cleric Dr. Alan Boesak has called to action the brandishing of Israel as an Apartheid State and for the closure of the Israeli Embassy in South Africa.
“We as South Africans stand united to send a strong message to the Palestinian resistance as well as the people in occupied Palestine that as much as they stood side by side with us during the struggle, we must continue being their voice in the resistance for self-determination,” says ANC Member of Parliament, Mandla Mandela.
A similar protest has been held in Kenilworth calling for fairness, equality and a just resolution of conflicts. Another protester Waleed Isaacs says, “I just feel the hurt of my brother whether he’s a Muslim whether he’s a Christian whether he’s a Jew it just is unacceptable to blanket and to kill people. I think people should make it a point to come and support the oppressed.”
