Pro-Palestinians slam PA rally

Pro-Palestinian protesters took a strong stand against the Patriotic Alliance rally at Athlone Stadium, claiming Patriotic Alliance ( PA) leader, Gayton Mackenzie is a supporter of the Israeli Zionist regime.

Pro-Palestinian activists converged outside the Athlone Stadium chanting, “free-free Palestine and Gayton must go”.

A Palestinian activist, Muniera Peters says: “I’m here in solidarity for my Palestinian brothers and sisters who are facing atrocities by the Isreali-government.

“PA’s leader, Gayton was funded millions by the Zionists to show-case his campaign.”

Imam Abduragmaan Abdul from Lavender Hill says: “People need to open their eyes and not side with any political parties who are being funded by Zionists.

“The Israeli-regime is committing war crimes.

“How can one still support a Party who is in cahoots with the Zionists.”

A PA supporter, Joane Peters from Piketberg says free bus transport was arranged to attend the rally.

“We were served sandwiches and got a free sweater.

“Gayton will give us a better life.”
