We salute the Anglican Church for calling Israel ‘apartheid state’- SA-BDS Coalition

(AFP)

‘The SA BDS Coalition warmly welcomes the resolution taken by the Anglican Church of South Africa declaring Israel as an apartheid state.  

The Anglican’s resolution is particularly impressive for their commitment to people-to people solidarity with Palestinians, ensuring that pilgrimages include meetings with Palestinian Christians and visits to Palestinian homes.

We salute the Anglican Church for not only calling out Israeli apartheid but also taking action.  The Church will be joining millions of people around the world in a global anti-apartheid movement and participating in the international anti-apartheid conference for Palestine to be held in South Africa, now scheduled for May 2024.

The Anglican Church of South Africa is standing on the right side of history, fully supporting the Palestinian struggle for equality, human rights and justice.  We hope that this encourages other churches to take a similar stand and challenge false theological justifications for apartheid.
