Call for peace and condemnation of Israel’s policies… In South Africa, the government and the ruling party stand with the Palestinians while calling for an end to hostilities. The African National Congress (ANC) stands in solidarity with the Palestinians whom it says are victims of an apartheid regime, as were the South Africans until 1994. On the other hand, the press releases do not mention Hamas, although it is engaged in the battle, nor its exactions. South Africa makes no concessions when it comes to the Palestinian cause.
