:clap: His views on South Africa are pretty righteous too!
"The Israeli regime is not apartheid. It is a unique case of democracy," he said in an interview with Haaretz Monday during celebrations marking Shimon Peres' 80th birthday.
If the Palestinians asked him, he would advise them to avoid violence and to prefer negotiations. "Armed struggle and violence do not solve problems, only create them, and generate more violence,? he told the paper.
A long-standing rival of the ruling African National Congress (ANC) he says he rejected the movement in the 60s after it abandoned its commitment to non-violence, later founding the Inkhata Freedom Party which he presides over to this day.
Accusing most foreign observers of simplifying the South African conflict, to a Disney-like image of a struggle between a unified righteous black majority and an oppressive and evil white minority," he feels he has an understanding of the complexities of the Middle East situation and expressed warmth former prime minister Peres whom he first met on a 1985 visit to Israel.
Buthelezi intends to challenge President Thabo Mbeki in next April?s South African presidential elections, having recently set up a new political bloc that now controls 28 percent of the national parliament.
