South African opposition party marches against Israel on Balfour Day
South Africa’s second-largest opposition party, the Economic Freedom Fighters, will march against Israel on Thursday to protest against the 100th Anniversary of the Balfour Declaration.The EFF, well-known for its socialist leanings and for its leaders and members wearing scarlet overalls, vowed to turn the country’s capital Tshwane (formerly Pretoria), red as they march on the Israeli Embassy, with hundreds of the party’s members and supporters expected to attend. On Twitter, the party’s charismatic leader, Julius Malema encouraged his followers to attend and "occupy the Israeli Embassy." "We love self-determination, peace and justice, democracy is our nickname. We are not free until Palestine is free, let’s occupy [the] Israel Embassy," he said. Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2017-11-01 |
