The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel took another step into open antisemitism today when student activists in South Africa placed the severed head of a pig in the kosher meat section of a Woolworths store in Cape Town. The shocking gesture was aimed, the perpetrators said, at preventing “people who will not eat pork to pretend that they are eating clean meat, when it is sold by hands dripping with the blood of Palestinian children.”

Jewish leaders were quick to condemn the act, organized by the Congress of South African Students (COSAS,) a body affiliated with the ruling African National Congress (ANC.) “Disregarding all standards of basic decency, the Congress of South African Students today chose to send an ugly message to the Jewish community of South Africa. This morning, as a protest against Woolworths for stocking Israeli products, COSAS members in Cape Town deposited a pig’s head in the kosher meat section of a Woolworths food store,” said the South African Jewish Board of Deputies. “The SAJBD regards this incident as a hate crime and is investigating its options regarding taking the matter further.” …

STUPID deluded fools. I can hardly wait for them to have their throats slit and their families murdered by their Mooslime “friends” that they’re so crazy about. Let’s see what they say about Israel then.

About 20 yeas ago, someone hung a pig head on the door of our synagogue. They lived next door to the market where they bought the pig head, and the knuckleheads thought they were not going to leave a trail. The community (York, PA) rallied with us and over 400 people crowded into our synagogue for a unity service, and when the perps were caught, the judge threw the book at them.

Another day, another blood libel.

Especially since that is where the guilt for the deaths of the “‘Palestinian’ children” lies.
