The British Home Office says it has denied Mandela's visa because of certain utterenaces he had made with regards to the war between Israel and Palestine.
In a letter accompanying the refusal to grant the visa to Man dela, the Home Office said: “Your presence in the UK has been assessed as not conducive to the public good on the grounds that you have engaged in unacceptable behaviour. “You have made multiple statements which explicitly support Hamas and their terrorist violence, including glorifying the 7 October attack on Israel and their recently deceased leader Ismail Haniyeh,” the letter said.
These included a one-year anniversary commemoration of the Hamas attacks, allegedly sending condolences for Haniyeh’s killing by Israel and attending Haniyeh’s funeral in Qatar in August.After the funeral, he allegedly posted on Instagram: “We bid farewell to Sheikh Ismail Haniyeh as he is laid to rest today.STANDING FIRM. Mandla Mandela, the grandson of former president Nelson Mandela, blames the Zionist lobby for drumming up support to ensure he was refused a UK visa.
“Any future UK visa “This was clearly contrived and the UK authorities succumbed to the pressure from the Zionist lobby.
