Julius Malema tells Muslim community to abandon ANC due to non-closure of Israeli embassy
Hundreds of EFF supporters marched to the Israeli embassy in Pretoria on Monday. He added that the ANC had the power to close the embassy, but it had not done so.
"The Muslim community that stands with Palestine must vote for a government that will stand unashamedly with the people of Palestine. "We have Muslim communities who say they support Palestine, and we will do everything in our power to support it, but when the elections come, they vote for the DA, which supports Israel," he told the crowd.
He threatened Woolworths, saying it had until the end of the month to ensure it removed Israeli products. "If we all boycotted products from that country, Israel would know that it is time to listen," Malema said. The deputy ambassador of Palestine, Bassam Elhussiny, was also present at the march.
