South Africa has tens of thousands of wonderful God loving people who are ashamed of their government’s actions against Israel. I want to send a message of support, love and prayer for them all to fulfill Galatians 6:9:

“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”

Since the Palestinians have no standing at the International Court of Justice due to the fact that they are not a recognized sovereign state, they looked for some useful idiots to do that for them.

No arab country was willing to take that role. That’s when the antisemitic South African government kicked in. They are nothing but puppets of the invented nation.

Saada, Yemen. A rally in support of the Houthis.

Re: World News! Events Happening Around The World by HolinessForever: 12:30pm On Jan 12
In the hours that have passed since the Americans announced the end of the attack by the coalition countries, there are those who are filling their mouths with water, and are waiting for developments.

There are countries such as Saudi Arabia, who are expressing concern, and there are others, like the Chinese, who are calling on all parties to halt escalation and to stop any attacks that endanger the movement of merchant ships on the Red Sea. And there are some like the Russians who accuse the US and the UK of a destructive escalation. The Russians are even calling for a meeting of the UN Security Council.

You can choose whether the reaction of the government of Yemen, recognized by the UN and the countries of the world, was something amusing, saddening, or an oversight.

Mokhtar al-Rahbi (Mukhtar al-Rahbi), the advisor to the Minister of Information in the government of Yemen, said in a simple and clear way that Yemen will stand against any aggression of the countries of global terrorism against Yemen.


He added that every Yemeni who supports America, Britain, and other coalition countries that protect Zionist ships must examine his Yemeniness and his Arabness, since these countries support the terrorism of the Zionist entity that killed 30,000 children, women, and residents in Gaza.

The passionate speaker made claims against the countries of the "dirty coalition" that came to attack and punish Yemen for its "honorable position towards Gaza and Palestine" and pointed out that although the Yemenis have disagreements on many issues, they are united around the Palestinian issue.

The Houthis, for their part, after announcing that the airstrikes were ineffective, causing deaths and injuries but no real damage to the facilities and assets nor at the strategic level, declared that the response to the attack will not be delayed and they will continue to attack. This is despite and in spite of the attack by the Americans and their allies.


And Iran? Iran, of course, strongly condemned "the American and British aggression, which was an arbitrary act that violated Yemeni sovereignty” (it's a bit funny that this was said by Iranian speakers...).

Nasser Kanani, the spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, said that these attacks, which violate international laws and regulations, will only worsen the insecurity and stability in the region (and when I read his words, I am reminded of a Middle Eastern saying about the camel that cannot see its hump...)


Kanani expressed concern about the consequences of the recurrence of such arbitrary attacks on the peace and security of the region, and called on the international community to act responsibly and prevent the expansion of war, instability, and insecurity in the region.

Kanani also said that this aggression is the continuation of the full support of the USA and the UK for the war crimes committed by the Zionist regime in the last hundred days against the Palestinian people and the oppressed citizens who are under siege in Gaza.

Official Lebanon aligns with Hezbollah's position:
The Prime Minister of the Transitional Government in Lebanon, Najib Mikati, said this morning that "We informed the envoys that talking about calm in Lebanon only is illogical and we demand a cease-fire in Gaza at the same time as a cease-fire in Lebanon."


His words have special meaning due to the fact that Lebanon, as a country and he as its head, officially declares a position identical to that of the Iranian axis, something that no sovereign country from whose territory attacks on Israel are launched in the current war has done so far.
I will explain:
All attacks on Israel are carried out by militias and do not receive the official and public support of the country on whose territory they operate. The closest thing to this is the Houthis in Yemen, but their rule is not recognized as the legal rule in the country by most of the countries of the world, so in fact the statement by the Prime Minister of Lebanon today, which adopts Hezbollah's position, has a special and unique meaning.
