EFF statement on the Israel ejections of Palestinians from their homes

9 May 2021

The EFF sadly takes note of the continued aggression and inflicting of pain by the racist Zionist apartheid state of Israel against the people of Palestine evicting them from their homes they built out of sweat and hard work in their own land.

We call on the world community of nations to summon diplomats of the Israel regime in those countries to register their disapproval and condemnation of this genocidal conduct of the apartheid Israel state.

The EFF will seek a meeting with the Palestine ambassador in South Africa to register our solidarity with the people of Palestine. The Zionist state of Israel is contemptuous of the Holy Ramadan fasting period to engage in international abhorrent criminal conduct of unleashing homelessness to the people of the city of Sheik Al Jarrah.

We call on the South African government to close down the embassy of apartheid Israel and recall our own representation from Tel Aviv. The myriads of statements issued by the ruling party has become an irritating chorus, it is time for a decisive action.

We send our heartfelt solidarity to the people of Palestine and confirm to them that their struggle and pain is ours too. We commit that an EFF government will hear their cry and shall decisively support their struggle in action and attitude contrary to what these apartheid sponsored white monopoly regime of South Africa.
