Lol, this guy here just wrote off South African history of struggle against apartheid and of Palestinian solidarity as "allies with Russia". Mandela, Tutu and others have spoken out on the Palestinian issue. Israel was one of the only countries cozying up to the apartheid regime and used those ties to develop its nuclear arsenal. The lawyers involved in drafting the ICJ submission are summits of anti-apartheid litigation. Israel has a long history of making Putin-like statements denying the existence of a Palestinian people. And yet, here we are FrooBooteR69 made the call: "SA is grandstanding to score points with Putin". I mean, roflmao, dude.
