Earlier this month, hundreds of Israeli citizens including two South Africans were killed in an attack by Hamas on Israel and capturing others to be held hostage in Gaza.

In retaliation, Prime Minister Benjamin Netenyahu according to CNN, ordered attack on Gaza which has seen continuous bombing around the Palestinian enclave including the bombing of a hospital.

The supply of electricity, food, water and fuel has also been blocked.

APARTHEID ISRAEL AND APRTHEID SOUTH AFRICA

Malema drew on several comparisons between the current war between Israel and Palestine and Apartheid South Africa and said, ‘There is nothing that Hamas is doing’.

The EFF leader says Oliver Tambo, Chris Hani, Nelson Mandela, and Winnie Madikizela-Mandela also used weapons to fight for liberation.

“Where did the ANC and MK get money for guns and ammunition and food its was the international progressive world”, says Malema.

“They were called terrorists, like Hamas is called terrorist”, he adds.

“The EFF when it takes over next year, it is going to arm Hamas and make sure Hamas has got the necessary equipment to fight for their freedom.”
