Israel is an “evil state which must be destroyed as a matter of urgency,” South Africa’s radical left-wing communist party Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) said in a statement released after the violent clashes during the\u00a0funeral of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh last\u00a0week.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EFF, the third-largest party in the South African parliament, is a pan-Africanist faction that “draws inspiration from the broad\u00a0Marxist\u2013Leninist tradition,” according to its constitution. The party and its leader, Julius Malema, have been criticized for encouraging racist sentiments against whites and Indians and Malema himself was twice convicted of hate speech.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the statement, the EFF said it condemns the “sadistic, cruel and genocidal Israeli apartheid state” for the Israel Police’s actions taken\u00a0against Palestinian rioters at the funeral of the Al Jazeera reporter.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the radical left-wing faction, Israel is a “sick, fascist and inhumane regime whose actions eclipse those of an apartheid state.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EFF also called on the South African government and President Cyril Ramaphosa to expel the Israeli ambassador from the country, saying the world’s patience has led “Zionist maniacs to believe they are untouchable.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The party also lamented the lack of sanctions imposed on Israel that is “so easily imposed” on socialist states.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EFF publicly supports\u00a0Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, saying in a statement released this week that it “commends Russia’s anti-imperialist program against the NATO war alliance.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EFFA and Malema have caused great controversy in the past for comments which were perceived as fascist and inciting racism. In a 2016 political rally, Malema said the EFF is “not calling for the slaughter of white people…at least for now.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

In another political rally in 2018, Malema called for his supporters to “go after a white man….we are cutting the throat of whiteness.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Malema has also praised former Libyan autocrat Muammar Gaddafi, promising to implement some of Gaddafi’s policies in South Africa.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
