“So although Pretoria’s Hague-centric Palestine solidarity (forgotten when it comes to Glencore-Motsepe’s massive coal sales to Israel to empower the genocidaires) probably can’t really be sacrificed aside from ‘dropping the megaphone’ (which was already done), we can expect Ramaphosa to offer Trump:…”

Last week, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Tom Fletcher told the UN Security Council: “We have life-saving supplies ready, now, at the borders. We can save hundreds of thousands of survivors. … But Israel denies us access.”
