1. I wonder if all those jews that fought against
jason white ,   afula, israel   (08.16.12)
apartheid are happy with the monster they created?
2. The anti-racists of yesteryear have turned racist this year:
Adam Smith   (08.16.12)
anti-Jewish racists.
3. Most Corrupt
JJ ,   South Africa   (08.16.12)
The SA government is most probably the most corrupt, hopeless & despicable you can find on this planet. Absolutely no integrity at all. Just Google "south africa failed state" & you can see for yourself. Why do you even bother to publish any SA news articles?
4. Go ask Helen!
zelig ,   memphis u.s.a.   (08.16.12)
O.k...Hashem, could you please send Helen Suzman back for even just a moment to see what has become of South Africa? The Jews helped remove South Africa's chains and THIS is their gratitude! I think I'll boycott their damned oranges and if I can't find Jaffas,I'll buy American

I was a great supporter of Nelson Mandela.1969 SRC.We the Jews helped the blacks of SA in every way possible,I would have hoped that the blacks of SA would have rememberd.This is the way SA is going down , when Mandela goes SA is going too go the same way as the rest of Africa.
7. South Africa of all countries
ex white S.A.Citizen   (08.16.12)
to be against the Jewish people. if this concerns the whites, their memories are very short. I lived over 22 years in South Africa and know exactly how they were treated. Just ask any Black person in the Cape Town suburb of Sea Point. They were only cleaners, baby- nannies, cooks etc. etc. etc. to the rich Jewish people with very little salary. Don't get me wrong..... I love the Jewish people and Israel their true country, but I did not like how their black maids were treated. And a black "maid" was all they were!
8. What do you expect from an Arab/Muslim: Ebrahim
Carl ,   USA   (08.16.12)
Too bad such hateful people are given high level government positions. South Africa has long ago lost any moral authority when leaders like Nelson Mandela and Tutu parrot the Arabic party line of "apartheid" against Israel, which they know full well is absolutely false.
9. Ebrahim Ebrahim
Enoch ,   Toronto   (08.16.12)
What? A Muslim that doesn't like Israel? What is the world coming to? What is next? An Iranian cleric will call for the destruction of Israel?
10. After the Jews and Whites leave
AK   (08.16.12)
SA will come to the level of the rest of Zimbabwe. I read recently that , with the approval of the current govt, white farmers are being systematically disarmed and attacked, many murdered. The new SA could have chosen a different path, but it didn't. As to the leftists Jews, we all know where stand, and it is never with their fellow Jews.
11. Ebrahim Ebrahim?
Mike ,   Tel Aviv   (08.16.12)
Sums it up really....
12. as a South African Citizen
Jean-Pierre ,   Austria   (08.16.12)
I am dissapointed but not surprised. For many nations will eventually join the popular party and groups. It is all numbers now. Islam and Anti-Israel agenda is popular and it will grow, the weak, decieved, and many others will join and sell their souls in a group of hatred popular party. I have no idea what is going on in the world, but its going from bad to worse, and soon worse to nightmare, beware, many jews will eventually betray their own people, history, nation, and zion. Shalom and be Strong, I am not a jew but a goyim who stands for the truth.

So, you are saying, that it is the Jews of South Africa, who are the only white residents, who are exploiting and discriminating the Black native SA people ? Such a generalized and unsubstantiated statement, contradicts the very nature and history of the Jewish People.. Your uneducated blaberring is quite pathetic and proved one thing :Your "crap" won't work here ...And of course,we didn't get you wrong: you just "love" the Jewish people..What a coward...With a name "ex white", can you expect an honest and coherent view ?
18. Good for him.
J.C ,   Toronto   (08.17.12)
Good for for him, let him say what he wants. Jeez, have an opinion against a Jew and you're an anti-semite. I wouldn't want to go to that country these days either with all the hostility there. I think it's a safety issue and it was taken out of context. Let's just say it's not on my vacation list either. #8, thanks for keeping racism alive and well in 2012.

Compared to any Arab country - South Africa is better than most. Compared to the PA - SA isn't even in the same league for racism or corruption

22. South Africans are not being discouraged from visiting Syria
Alan ,   SA   (08.17.12)
or any other country ..Ebrahims story contradicts the broader strategy which the SA government has consistently followed in other conflicts, which is to talk and keep talking to all sides to try to negotiate a peaceful solution and not to resort to pressure tactics. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is bombing civilians with heavy artillery and aircraft. Yet SA steadfastly refuses to condone any pressure against him. It has certainly not discouraged South Africans from visiting Syria (if any were foolish enough to contemplate doing so). And Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe has been stalling reforms for years, while killing and persecuting his opponents, without as much as a murmur of public rebuke from Pretoria. If the government wishes to isolate Israel, let it do the same for all offenders. Otherwise it must rescind Ebrahim’s policy and keep the channels of communication open to all countries. (From STAR)
