A sorry state of disgrace
A week before the July 1 annexation of a chunk of land in the occupied Palestinian territory, South Africans have made their voices heard. The first statement came from the collective body of the National Church Leaders’ Forum of the SA Council of Churches (SACC) and the second from Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng. The import of their messages is worth noting because of the timing of their release.
They were sent barely a week before the July 1 annexation of a chunk of the occupied Palestinian territory of the West Bank and the Jordan Valley, which will virtually obliterate the feasibility of the internationally recognised peace solution for the two states of Israel and Palestine.
Unilateral annexation means that the Palestinians will be pushed off their land or remain, without citizen rights,
