Israeli action worse than apartheid: South Africa
DURBAN: South Africa on Sunday said that some of Israel's actions against Palestinians are worse than what happened during apartheid.

Condemning the Israeli attack against the Palestinians, President Kgalema Motlanthe said that the creation of new settlements within the West Bank which exclude Palestinians was one such example.

He also appreciated the role played by the international media in covering the incident. He was speaking at an international conference, 'Coalition for the Good and Charity', in Cape Town.

"This was not the first of such invasions and attacks. However in the past, these brutalities have always been concealed because of strict control of the news coming out of Palestine. But for the first time the sheer savagery of these attacks of innocent children and women have been com communicated to the world," he said.
