Weaponising laws
The proposed legislation is totally ridiculous, irrational and will be a complete waste of our government's resources. The proponents of this law are in support of or silent about countries who are openly promoting or allowing violence against certain religious groups. What happened to our constitutional right to freedom of expression? I do not support human rights abuses, but definitely support Israel's right to defend their citizens' safety and peace.

I do not support this law. As the information in this le is inaccurate and can not be relied on. People with half a story are trying to act and speak for people.

The intended bill is archaic. Stop this bill at all costs- it’s intended to target groups not in sync with the promoters.

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.
