    Thank you to South Africa for this. Other nations must follow suit. We must treat this like we treated South African apartheid.https://twitter.com/Jonisayi/status/996085946524295169 …

        I don’t remember Nelson Mandela calling for the destruction and death of all South Africans.

        Are you saying that the 55 people who were shot & killed today all said that? You heard them? Many were women and children. Almost all were unarmed. You are really justifying this? I am appalled.

        It was a massacre today, no question. But stop equating it to what happened in South Africa, very different situation, and coming at it that way is exactly what Hamas wants, and why they’ll celebrate the deaths today.

        How familiar are you with South African history? Are you not aware of the Sharpeville Massacre? Also, I'm not sure you've read the Autobiography of Nelson Mandela based on your comments.

        Not as familiar as you, but I have read his autobiography. I am as appalled as you are, if not more by virtue of being Jewish. My only point is that Hamas is not the victim here and your comments betray that.

        Except the South Africans didn't elect a terrorist organization to run their government. That would be Hamas.

        ANC and Mandela were seen as terrorists by the American government long after the independence. If I recall Mandela has some issues in getting his first visa to visit the States.
