South African Union Leader Calls for Attacks on Jews 'Everywhere'
Big Peace ^ | 8/14/2014 | Joel B. Pollak

A leader of South Africa's most powerful trade union has called for attacks on Jews in response to the war in Gaza. 

In a posting on his personal Facebook page Wednesday, Tony Ehrenreich, the leader of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) in the Western Cape province, called for "an Eye for an Eye against Zionist aggression" and warned that "if a woman or child is killed in Gaza," then Jews who support Israel must face an equivalent fate.

Breitbart News reached Ehrenreich via his cell phone--which is publicly available--and he confirmed that the Facebook posting was his own. 

Ehrenreich is one of South Africa's more important political voices. He was the Cape Town mayoral nominee in 2011 for the country's major political party, the African National Congress (ANC), and still leads the opposition in the city council. He has strong anti-Israel views, and recently called for boycotts of Jewish businesses in South Africa if the Jewish community's leadership, the Board of Deputies, refused to stop supporting Israel.

The enemy also got defeated by the victorious passion and death on the cross of Jesus.

South Africa is so much better since the end of white rule.

Lets construct this;

Thug One: “Remember, he said to kill all Jews who support Israel!”
Thug Two: “So we aren’t to kill Jews who don’t support Israel?”
Thug One: “That’s right.”
Thug Two: “How can we tell?”
Thug One: “Tell what?”
Thug Two: “The difference!”
Thug One: “I don’t know, maybe they look different?”
Thug Two: “I don’t think so.”
Thug One: “So let’s kill any Jew then!”
Thug Two: “OK, but again, how can we tell?”
Thug One: “Sigh, when you’re right you’re right. OK, we will just kill them all!”
Thug Two: “OK, that is a lot easier. Got your clips?”
Thug One: “Yeah, let’s go!”

At least once upon a time, South Africa knew to throw a community organizer like Nelson Mandela in prison.

Maybe Michael Brown was otherwise gonna be a future U.S. president—hey, it obviously could happen! Thank you, anonymous cop! (Assuming the cop story is correct.)

Certainly, like 0, of mixed descent.

A Nazi, none-the-less.

As far as Muslims are concerned ... it’s the Jewish people NOW... then they’ll move on to the rest of us.

The mohammedans "moved on" a long time ago.
