There is extensive accusation– truly a slander– that Israel is an apartheid state.

That notion is simply incorrect.

It is unreliable and it is destructive.

And it will not assist to promote peace and harmony in the Middle East. Its only function is to demonize Israel, and to separate her in an attempt to de-legitimize Israel’s existence.

And due to the fact that it is so incorrect, it betrays the memory of those who suffered through a genuine apartheid.

As a black South African, who was born under apartheid, in the administrative capital of South Africa, Pretoria, I understand what apartheid is. I’ve experienced it. My parents experienced it.

But having been to Israel on a number of occasions, I understand that nothing is happening because country– that I have either seen or read– that can be compared to apartheid in South Africa.

Let’s remember the significant reason Nelson Mandela went to prison– why he was included with the armed struggle. He was defending the right to vote, for the right to choose the leaders who one believes in, for the right to move and travel easily, to live wherever one wants, to be educated, and to be confessed to the hospital or medical center of your option.

Due to the fact that black people never ever enjoyed any of them in their very own nation, all these things Mandela battled for. When I had to see a white medical professional– a white physician who was prepared to have black patients– I would have go to a back space, a specially segregated space where black patients of white medical professionals went who might never ever go into through the exact same door that was used by white people.

Now compare that to Israel. Three years back, a black pastor friend of mine went to Israel where he had an accident and had to be hospitalized. When he came back to South Africa, he stated to as many people as he could, that individuals who are discussing apartheid in Israel are talking rubbish.

” When I remained in that medical facility in Israel,” he tells individuals, “on my right was sleeping a Jew and on my left was a Palestinian Muslim and in between that Palestinian Muslim which Jew was this black South African.”

In private, the Palestinians he was with in the medical facility stated to him, “This ‘Israel-is-an-apartheid-state’ thing is what politicians are stating. It is not what we are experiencing on the ground.”

All of us need to acknowledge that those who state that what is taking place in Israel resembles apartheid South Africa are decreasing the suffering that black South Africans endured. They are taking the sting out of the discomfort that we suffered in South Africa. There would never have been any requirement for an armed struggle if South African apartheid was what individuals are seeing in Israel. Since he would have all the rights Arabs in Israel have, there would never have actually been any need for a Nelson Mandela to go to jail.

Is Israel an “apartheid state,” as its opponents claim? 3 years ago, a black pastor buddy of mine went to Israel where he had and had a mishap to be hospitalized. When he came back to South Africa, he stated to as lots of people as he could, that the people who are talking about apartheid in Israel are talking nonsense.

We all need to recognize that those who say that what is taking place in Israel is like apartheid South Africa are reducing the suffering that black South Africans endured. If South African apartheid was what individuals are seeing in Israel, there would never ever have been any need for an armed struggle.
