I'm confused by this. Are you saying that the "whites" of  South Africa
were, "in general, Jewish"???


I know that Zionists from Israel helped arm the racist-fascist South African
Apartheid regime, and I don't have any illlusions about Zionism.

Nor do I think that Jews are inherently any less racist than any other
group.

But I'm puzzled by the implication that "most white South Africans" were/are
Jewish.....unless I'm misunderstanding something in your post.

Respectfully,

Alan Spector
