Letter to the ANC from a South African Jew
(24.com-South Africa) Howard Feldman - The ANC was largely responsible for making South Africa a shining light of tolerance, understanding and forgiveness. But you have lost your way. And in doing so you will stand on the wrong side of history. As a South African Jew who has woken up to the news that you have chosen "unanimously" to downgrade the Israeli Embassy, you have sent a clear message, not only to the Jews of the country, but to the rest of the world. You invited the terror organization Hamas to your conference. They desire the death of Jews. They are an Islamist terror group like ISIS and like Boko Haram. And they believe in kidnapping, murdering and terrorizing the innocent. Your focus on Israel is hypocritical at best and anti-Semitic at worse. To single this out as the only embassy worthy of a downgrade is to send a message that it is not about the Palestinians but more about Israel and the Jews.
