Of all the countries to open a bogus ‘genocide’ complaint against Israel… SOUTH AFRICA is trying to play that card?
This morning, South Africa stood before a judge in The Hague to make a claim of ‘genocide’ against Israel. Before you ask — yes, THAT South Africa.
Strange, how they had nothing to say about, say, Azerbaijan’s genocide of Armenians just last year. Or about the Hamas’s genocidal founding document that gives the rationale for terror attacks like the one we saw last October 7. No, they brought a case against… Israel.

âThe Palestinian people suffer for 75 years.âđšđźđ±

Senator Fetterman is once again surprising us all by calling out South Africa’s hypocrisy and telling them to sit down and shut up.
Holy sh!t

“Who are they really fighting? Itâs a group of cowards. They hide in tunnels, they hide behind civilians, they attack, kill and mutilate children, women. And they do that. Stop talking about proportion on that. They shot their best shot on October 7th, and they would have taken more lives if they could do that,” Fetterman said of Hamas terrorists while speaking at the Orthodox Union luncheon in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.
“Now weâre also talking about genocide,” Fetterman continued. “And now South Africa . . . bringing that kind of trial. Maybe South Africa ought to sit this one out when theyâre talking about criticizing the behavior of another nation. Sit out!” — FoxNews
Why should South Africa pour themselves a big, steaming cup of STFU?
First
They’re ignoring a critical detail in the Gaza conflict. The founding document of Hamas is explicitly genocidal, calling for the murder of Jews. Their policies, and those of other hostile Iranian proxies, have as an explicit aim, the killing of Jews and the establishment of an Arab Caliphate across that part of the Middle East.
Considering South Africa’s ties to Russia, and Russia’s ties to Iran, South Africa’s willingness to take sides should not surprise anyone. Nor should it surprise anyone that Iran has thrown its support behind this project.
Second:
Not only is South Africa infamous for apartheid, but old hatreds remain, and old scores are being settled by continuing the cycle of violence, as shown in this story from 2022:
HELESTI Daye-Fourie never leaves her house after dark. The risk of being carjacked and shot standing in her own driveway is too high.
Every day after picking up her eight-year-old son from school, the Johannesburg mum-of-two takes a different route home, eyes on the rear-view mirror. Her 20-month-old toddler sits in his car seat behind her, where he can easily be grabbed at a momentâs notice.
Thatâs because Ms Day-Fourie doesnât want her son, in the event of an attack, to be trapped by his seatbelt, dragged along outside of the car and killed â as happened to a four-year-old boy whose parents and sister were forced out of their car by three armed men in nearby Boksburg, just 30 minutes away.
[…]
âWe have become so used to the daily instances of crime around us that we probably donât even react to it anymore,â she said. âAnd that is the scary part. I guess if we had to react to what is happening around us, like ânormalâ people would, we just wonât be able to function on a day-to-day basis.â
There has been rising racial violence in South Africa. Farmers in South Africa suffer more murders per capita than any other community across the world outside a war zone, and many are increasingly weighing their future.
The FoxNews article gave more context about the horrors being suffered in South Africa:
At a massive rally in July, Julius Malema, leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters party, sang the genocidal anti-apartheid struggle song “Kill the Boer, the farmer,” referring to the White descendants of Dutch settlers, or “Boers,” in South Africa.
In the third quarter of 2023, South African farm attacks soared by 21% compared to the previous quarter, according to AfriForum, a non-profit civil rights organization. AfriForumâs Community Safety Division documented 88 farm attacks, including 13 farm murders, from July to September 2023. —FoxNews
Like Fetterman said… maybe South Africa should sit this one out. They’ve got enough problems of their own.
Psalms of War: Prayers That Literally Kick Ass is a collection, from the book of Psalms, regarding how David rolled in prayer. I bet you havenât heard these read, prayed, or sung in church against our formidable enemies — and therein lies the Church’s problem. Weâre not using the spiritual weapons God gave us to waylay the powers of darkness. It might be time to dust them off and offer âem up if youâre truly concerned about the state of Christâs Church and of our nation.
Also included in this book, Psalms of War, are reproductions of the authorâs original art from his Biblical Badass Series of oil paintings.
This is a great gift for the prayer warriors. Real. Raw. Relevant.
