Nelson Mandela’s grandson slams ‘Israeli apartheid’<\/h3>\n

by Gavin O’Toole<\/a><\/p>\n

7 Jul 2019<\/p>\n

Zwelivelile Mandela says Israeli apartheid is the worst form of apartheid ever witnessed.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"The grandson of anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela<\/a> has delivered a damning condemnation of “Israeli apartheid”, in a high-profile expression of solidarity between South Africans and Palestinians.<\/p>\n

Zwelivelile Mandela, an MP of the ruling African National Congress (ANC<\/a>), made the comments on Saturday at the Palestine Expo, an annual event in London aimed at showcasing Palestinian<\/a> history, heritage and culture. Last year, it attracted 15,000 visitors.<\/p>\n

Addressing a large audience, Mandela said that the Nation-State Law passed in 2018 declaring Israel<\/a> to be the historical homeland of the Jewish people “confirmed what we have always known to be the true character and reality of Israel: Israel is an apartheid state”.<\/p>\n

He also outlined what had constituted apartheid for black South Africans<\/a> – from the creation of bantustan reservations to land expropriation and the daily assault on dignity.<\/p>\n

“All these characteristics were present in apartheid Israel since its inception but have now been codified and given a constitutional status and expression by the Nation-State Law.<\/p>\n

“Apartheid Israel perpetuates statutory discrimination through the very definition by the law as a Jewish state; by doing so it renders non-Jews as second-class citizens, alternately as foreigners in the land of their birth.”<\/p>\n

Anti-Semitism allegations<\/strong><\/p>\n

Also speaking at the event was Israeli journalist Gideon Levy, who criticised efforts by the United States<\/a> to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict<\/a> through investment.<\/p>\n

He told the London audience that not only could the deal not be taken seriously, but if it were pursued it would put an end to “all Palestinian rights and aspirations”, and added that, as a result, a global intervention was now required to put pressure on Israel.<\/p>\n

“We need the world because Israel will not change by itself – as long as Israel and Israelis are not punished and don’t pay for the occupation, for the crimes, don’t expect any change. It will not come from within Israel.”<\/p>\n

Levy was also scathing about how Western politicians and media have succumbed to a “very efficient” campaign by Israel to label any criticism of the country’s activities as anti-Semitic.<\/p>\n

“Here we face now a new stage in which criticising Israel becomes not only impossible but almost criminal. I have never seen such a phenomenon in which struggling for justice becomes criminalised – this is unheard of.<\/p>\n

“The formula is very formalised and very efficient, and we shouldn’t let it be so efficient: you dare to criticise the occupation? You dare to criticise Israel? You dare to have some sympathy with the Palestinians, the victims? You dare to speak about justice? You know what you are: you are an anti-Semite. This paralyses everybody.”<\/p>\n

Ilan Pappe, a professor at the University of Exeterand director of the European Centre for Palestinian Studies, also blasted the mainstream media’s coverage of Israeli activities and how these have been concealed behind the “fabrication of institutional anti-Semitism”.<\/p>\n

Pappe said it was important to acknowledge the historical context in which the treatment of Palestinians in areas such as Gaza<\/a> had taken place.<\/p>\n

“Unfortunately, the world doesn’t know what goes on in Gaza. In this country, the mainstream media, whether it is Sky News or the BBC, or the main newspapers, don’t mention the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n

“They mention every word that they think attests to institutional anti-Semitism in the Labour Party but they would not mention what happened yesterday when 49 young Palestinians were shot by Israeli snipers. Neither did they mention the 52 who were shot last week.”<\/p>\n
