‘Hypocritical’ South Africa backing ‘monsters’ bent on actual genocide, Netanyahu charges

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accuses South Africa of “representing monsters” and “accusing Israel of genocide while it is fighting genocide,” saying its case at the Hague is evidence of a “world turned upside down.”

“A terror organization carries out the worst crime against the Jewish people since the Holocaust, and now comes along someone to defend them in the name of the Holocaust,” he says in a video statement. “What chutzpah.”

“South Africa’s hypocrisy cries out from the heavens,” he adds. “Where were you South Africa when millions of people were killed or displaced from their homes in Syria and Yemen, and by whom? By Hamas’s partners.”

Netanyahu defiantly says Israel will “continue battling terrorists… until total victory.”

“We will continue to reject the lies, we will continue to protect our just right to defend ourselves and ensure our future,” he says.
