Apartheid revived?

Chris McGreal, introducing the first part of a special report for the Guardian:

Perhaps the real question is how Israel came to be in the same league as apartheid South Africa, whether by mirroring laws and political strategies, or in the suffering caused. And how it is that the government of a people who suffered so much at the hands of discrimination and hatred came to secretly embrace a regime led by men who once stood on the docks of Cape Town and chanted: "Send back the Jews."
Yes, McGreal is tackling that nasty little tale about the links between Israel and the apartheid regime of South Africa. It's a story that should make everyone a bit uneasy, especially Zionists.

The two-part feature is available here and here.
