Chief Justice of South Africa: I Will Not Retract My Comments on Israel

(Jerusalem Post) Chief Justice of South Africa Mogoeng Mogoeng, who has been facing criticism for attacking the ruling ANC party's one-sided approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, said he will not retract his statements, according to a report Saturday by South Africa's Gateway News. Responding to the criticism, Mogoeng said, "Even if 50 million people can march every day for the next 10 years for me to retract and apologize for what I said - I will not do it. I will not apologize for anything. There is nothing to apologize for. There is nothing to retract. I can't apologize for loving. I cannot apologize for not harboring hatred and bitterness. I will not."
