We had a problem with a Muslim political leader here that was using her soapbox to push her own religious agenda. This type of behavior from a public official is disgusting and she was forced by our president to apologize twice. Her first apology was ambiguous, so the president got involved and sorted it out: South Africa has a secular government, and we condemn both sides for their actions in the Middle East.. we also offer aids to both sides and have hundreds of doctors in Palestine and Israel.
