I wonder if the deluded self hating folks at Jewish Voices SA have even noticed the massive efforts launched by the loathsome Palestine Solidarity Committee in their pathetic attempt to cancel the visit to South Africa by Ehud Olmert.
James Andrews from the PSC puts it succinctly
The way to secure peace democracy and justice In Palestine is by building an International movement to isolate Israel as was the case with apartheid South Africa. Engaging with Sharon and an administration bent on the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians is damaging to any prospects of peace. It merely legitimises the Israeli regime and creates the fantastical notion that Israel can impose a peace without even having to discuss it with the Palestinian people . Our government which should be in the lead in promoting sanctions against Israel is squandering the moral high ground earned by our people through great sacrifice .
Meanwhile, the SA government has just issued the following press release
ISRAELI DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER AND MINISTER OF TRADE AND INDUSTRY, EHUD OLMERT TO VISIT SOUTH AFRICA Wednesday 20 - Saturday 23 October 2004
Pretoria - Israeli Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Trade and Industry, Ehud Olmert will visit South Africa from Wednesday - Saturday, 20-23 October 2004.
The visit comes in the context of ongoing efforts by South Africa to assist Israelis and Palestinians find a long lasting resolution to the political crisis currently affecting the Middle East in general and Palestine and Israel in particular.
South Africa supports the realisation of a two-state solution in the Middle East with an independent state of Palestine coexisting side-by-side with Israel within secure borders.
In this regard, Deputy Prime Minister Olmert will pay a courtesy call on President Thabo Mbeki, meet with Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Aziz Pahad as well as Minister of Trade Industry, Mandisi Mphahlwa.
Issued by Ronnie Mamoepa
It is plain to see that the mere thought of South Africa backing a two state solution makes the PSC choke on their own vomit, revealing them and their collaborators for what they really are.
Shame on you Jewish Voices SA for having the sheer gall to march alongside these fascist idealogues.
Olmert has been a controversial figure in Israel recently, saying that “the disengagement plan is only the beginning”, implying that if left up to him, many more painful Israeli concessions will follow. But the PSC don't want concessions. They want it all.
And COSTAU has issued 2 press releases about Olmert's visit. here

I am not impressed how irrational COSTAU have become latley.

Why bother with the so-called "Jewish Voices" - a group of people who are embarrassed to identify with the fight for survival of the Jewish state. In the 1930's the same type of people said the Nazis were not to bad, I think they probably changed their minds on the transports to the death camps.

It is COSATU but then I think spelling might be the least of your problems. Viva Intifada.

Wow, James Andrews himself. And how did this fascist man, who does not want to ever reach final status agreements with Israel reach my site? Well in his very narcissistic way, so common amongst his peers, he searched for his own name on Google.
Vaz may have unintentionally mispelled an acronym. But what of your problems my narcissistic comrade?
Narcissism: A pattern of traits and behaviours which signify infatuation and obsession with one's self to the exclusion of all others and the egotistic and ruthless pursuit of one's gratification, dominance and ambition.
That said and done, onto my question for you.
James, what good does your wild accusations of ethnic cleansing do? It is plain to see that there is no ethnic cleansing taking place. The population of the Palestinians has been exploding, not decreasing. Please explain, surely, if Israel wanted to ethnic cleanse the Palestinian population then they would have reduced their numbers by now, rather than having risked their own lives by going door-to-door to smoke out terrorists.
And please, do something about that narcissism.
Quite a few click arounds on my blog, you must have enjoyed it! It's my pleasure. Please if you feel like making a donation, don't hesitate to contact me. I do this in my own time, and really get nothing for it.
Finally, why not drop your e-mail address down?
