South Africa Chief Justice Under Fire for Support of Israel
(Jerusalem Post) The African National Congress (ANC), South Africa's governing party, has called for parliamentary censure of Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng over his expression of support for Israel in a webinar hosted on Tuesday by the Jerusalem Post. Mogoeng lamented his country's adoption of a lopsided attitude toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and said it would have greater influence if it displayed a more balanced approach. "We are denying ourselves a wonderful opportunity of being a game-changer in the Israeli-Palestinian situation." He added that as a practicing Christian he believed that those who curse Israel will themselves be cursed.
