Free Palestine From The Zionist Oppressors

Dear President Ramaphosa,  

We the people of South Africa cannot stand by and watch this genocide continue. 

As a South African who lived through apartheid, you will know that what is currently happening in Palestine is no different to what South Africa went through during the apartheid years.  

Israel is an illegal apartheid state. They are committing a genocide and we as a democratic country who has experienced apartheid before need to act and show solidarity with the people of Palestine just like they did for us when we suffered during apartheid.

Innocent lives are being lost because of an oppressive apartheid regime of Israel who have continued to defy international laws and displaced millions from their homes. As South Africans, who have a dark past, should support the Palestinian cause and impose sanctions on Israel just as was done to South Africa.  

We as South Africans preach equality for all, how can we have any form of relations with Israel? Its high time we remove the Israeli embassy from our country and show solidarity towards Palestine.  

During the years of apartheid, who stood by the ANC? Muslim South Africans!

Surely now is the time to reciprocate by openly showing our support.
