What’s Your Favourite Apartheid Week?


Israel Apartheid Week is a favourite among the university going masses whose formative years were spent recycling pop cans and plastic bottles or else Mother Earth would cry but in this rush to hate Israel, have we forgotten other just as pertinent apartheid weeks?






Second is that Kim Il-sung established a security and control system that would have made Joseph Stalin blush. From the “rule of threes” (anyone found to be disloyal in word or deed will have three generations “expunged” — at best all three generations go to the gulag and at worst all three are totally expunged, as in execution) to the establishment of a personal loyalty system — i.e., you get promoted or get ahead or are simply allowed to exist by demonstrating personal loyalty to the regime and not by merit — means that there is a system of control that is totally focused on protecting the regime from rebellion. This personal loyalty system has the added benefit of preventing coups because anyone who says a word against the regime must be reported both by regulation but also because by reporting it one further demonstrates one’s loyalty to the regime and allows that person to “get ahead.”

One woman told of being forced to assist injection-induced labours and then watching as a baby was suffocated with a wet towel in front of its mother.

Many former prisoners told of babies buried alive or left face down on the ground to die.

They were told by guards this was to prevent the survival of half-Chinese babies.






There are plenty of references regarding the ICC as not representative of Iranian immigrants to Canada and of its ties to the Iranian Regime. In fact, the ICC has called for more Iranian consulates because so many Iranians need visas to travel back to a Theocracy which kills homosexuals, violently represses its citizens on a scale only surpassed by North Korea, and threatens Israel and western nations on a regular basis.



What about Celebrity Apartheid Week?






Shouldn't these countries and groups be held to account for their actions?
