Like the official implementation of apartheid to ensure Boer values were preserved.

Unlike the Dutch people, Jews originated in the land of Israel.
Do You see any reference to skin color?

Yes they were once some sects of the Canaanites, and the bible says EKE: Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

Lets face it, anyone from Judea was known as a jew. Good now that that is settled we can take Judeo off of Christian.

Q. Why do You think Arabs call it the "Jewish Desert"?


Sahara Yahudin -صحراء يهودا‎

The Judaean Desert or Judean Desert (Hebrew: Midbar Yehuda, both Desert of Judahor Judaean Desert; Arabic: Sahara Yahudan) is a desert in Israel and the West Bank that lies east of Jerusalem and descends to the Dead Sea. It stretches from the northeastern Negev to the east of Beit El, and is marked by terraces with escarpments.

Of course YHWH gave South Africa to the Boers. They said so.

Canaan is the ancient name for the land of Israel. The Torah gave Abraham the land of Canaan, which in some cases stretched from southern Syria to the Eastern Sinai and, in other Torah references, was only a small strip hugging the Mediterranean. Under the leadership of Joshua the Israelites conquered Canaan, which had previously been divided into seven city states. Today, the land of Canaan is known as Palestine, Eretz Yisrael and Israel.

But Penelope says my mother was a Hittite and my father an Amorite.

simple, Israel self declared them a state in 1948. the main language in the first century was Aramaic, tell me why?
 
Yes Israel IS a Bantustan,
No, what you show are countries. Bantustans are effectively reservations, nominally states, apartheid powers use for their workers, for which they can deny responsibility while controlling them. Look them up. Or not.

How else can one declare independence but through self declaration?
Aramaic was the main language because it was used by Canaanites as the working language of the greater empires for 6 centuries. Basically Aramaic is Hebrew with slight variation.

Yes and compared to them Israel is exactly this tiny Bantustan, the only land in the middle east not under Arab control.

How dare they, right?
