ESSAY: Fascist South Africa and Zionist “Israel”—Hitler’s Heirs, Victor Lungelo Mayekiso, 1969

South African Pan-Africanist Victor Lungelo carefully maps the links between “Hitler’s Heirs:” Fascist South Africa and Zionist “Israel.”

The equation used to be Zionism = Apartheid. It was a formulation that drew attention to the racist practices of two of the most notoriously racist states, South Africa, under the policy of Apartheid, and “Israel” in its current formation. Yet these days, Zionism = Apartheid seems a little hackneyed and feeble and almost quaintly liberal in its formulation. It does not attend to the raw, unrestrained, and insouciant murderous brutality of both states — and it is oblivious to zionism’s genocidal mandate. Indeed “apartheid,” which means “separateness” or “apartness” in Afrikaans, was not premised on the complete elimination of the African as the African was necessary as the laboring and serving class to the white settler population. (Although, most certainly, for many white South Africans, elimination would have been preferable). Yet what Palestinians have always known, and what is now becoming clear to the rest of the world, is that Zionism is not about separation, or even Apartheid; it is about the absolute elimination of Palestinians on a biological, cultural, and historical level. There is no other reason to murder both children and poets and destroy both hospitals and universities.

In this light, Zionism does not equal Apartheid. Zionism equals Nazism.

Zionism equals Nazism. And, as the South African Pan-Africanist Victor L. Makyekiso once wrote, Apartheid South Africa and the Zionist state both share philosophical origins, genocidal mandates, and often personnel with Nazi Germany. In a 1969 essay titled “Fascist South Africa and Zionist “Israel”—Hitler’s Heirs,” Makyekiso carefully plots the links between the three entities – down to the twisted use of religious claims to justify state violence. Makyekiso also points to the ways that zionism serves “the selfish interests of international imperialism led by U.S. Imperialism.”

Makyekiso’s essay was first published in the International Confederation of Arab Trade Unions’ ICATU Review (October 1969) and reprinted in March 1970 in Africanist News and Views , a journal of the Pan-Africanist Congress of Azania. We reprint the essay below as it lends a certain clarity to events of the past and the genocide of the present, while reminding us of the correct formulation: Zionism equals Nazism.

I find it profoundly astonishing how many apparently want to attempt to silently declare ignorance towards what the aspects of genocide is today. There are 5 of them in which any one to all five have been declared as a sense of genocide by the UNGC. The definition can be easily found.

I was even challenged beginning a little over a week ago on a post I made when someone attempted to suggest I wasn't comprehending what has been happening in Rafah with the article I posted over the past two weeks as Israel prepares to send in ground troops. Basically the last grounds available for Palestinians to escape to. Which has been a multiple recycling agenda of pushing them into an area, bombing them to force them further, sending in troops. In which the bombing had already began for preparations for the troops to move in. The bombing alone to force them out is a measure of genocide. In which other aspects of the definition have followed in every case before hand and in Rafah even before the troops go in. Destruction of homes, healthcare, infrastructure, culture, education, food, aide, life, etc. It's also a test book case of terrorism. Terrorism, and genocide, that has been embedded in the Palestinians lives for a century. Today, this shouldn't even be a questionable matter! If you're one to do so, it speaks volumes of what and who you may be willing to support that helps to spread the evils of western hegemony around the globe.

I hope you find the rest of the article to be educational towards a better understanding.
