2026-01-22 19:40:53 +02:00 | Jan | No I do not | Weaponising laws | I do not think our Parliament should create an opportunity to debate the concept of Apartheid. If it is an Act of Parliament, it can always create an opportunity for a right-wing group to make mischief. We should forget about the period of apartheid. We should also not create a concept that can be applied to other countries because it can cause excessive harm to them. It can also bring about new definitions of apartheid. I believe we must forget about a disgusting period in our history. The authors of the concept are long dead. If we retain the concept, it will give politicians unnecessary ammunition for debate. |

Summary of Opposing Views
Supporters (Al Jama-ah, ANC, EFF, PAC, GOOD):
Argue the Bill is a moral necessity to close the “impunity gap” and align South African law with its international commitments (ICJ case, UN Convention).
Opponents (DA, FF+, Jewish Board of Deputies):
Likely to argue the Bill is constitutionally vague, practically unenforceable, and a waste of parliamentary resources intended solely to antagonise Israel.
