Okay, that’s rather disturbing. I think that I might not have posted this here if I had known that Kenneth Meshoe was like that. However, it deosn’t debunk his story, which if true, goes completely against the idea that Israel is an apartheid state. Under Apartheid whites and blacks would never be put in the same hospital room. You also would never have a situation where blacks had political power over whites. Unless what he’s saying in the video is an outright lie, it doesn’t sound like you can compare the situation between Israelis and Palestinians is anything resembling apartheid.

Just so. Even if Meshoe is an ass in many ways, he had a direct, personal experience of apartheid which leaves him well placed to compare and contrast the actions of Israel with those of Apartheid South Africa.
