Israel's war is about uprooting murderous terror organisation

Israel is positioned at the junction of Jihad and the free world, at the intersection between the industry of death and democracy on the one hand and freedom, gender equality and human rights on the other. The free world cannot lose this battle. Africa cannot stand watching.

Neither the West nor Israel are immune to criticism, but the time has come for us to raise our heads and categorically declare: In this instance, there is no symmetry. Values of morality are opposed to values of immorality. This is the time for decisiveness: It is imperative we defeat the Iranian-led axis of evil, the Jihadist movement and its offshoots, from Hamas to ISIS, from Hezbollah to Boko Haram and Al Shabab.
