The United States is moving to reassess its ties with South Africa as lawmakers advance the “U.S.-South Africa Bilateral Relations Review Act,” which calls for sanctions on certain South African officials. The bill accuses Pretoria of undermining U.S. interests by aligning with Russia, China, and allegedly backing Hamas in the ongoing Gaza conflict. South Africa, a long-time supporter of the Palestinian cause, has already filed a genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. Tensions have worsened under President Trump’s second term, with trade disputes and refugee programs for Afrikaners further straining bilateral relations.

So the us didn't know, is that what you are saying that the USA didn't know about hamas will attack Israel funny people
Ayanda …how do we know itd misinformation or disinformation and what where the possible motives that made Ramaposa support Hamas ?
Netanyahu knew the attack was coming. Israel is the king of false flags. Netanyahu funded Hamas. Theres been no proof of SA Hamas ties.
The fact that the ANC government acted against Israel for defending itself against Hamas, and turned a blind on Russia which is the aggressor against Ukraine, displays very high levels of Hypocrisy!
..the people who control 🛂 the internet…messed up the world 😂
This US has clearly been lobbied to enforce a regime change in South Africa by any means necessary, because clearly the democratic process could not do it
The US is envious of the supremist apartheid state of Israel and is moving America in that direction. Believing itself beyond reproach and it shows in their policing of its own citizens and how it believes it can dictate other countries to either act in American interests over that of the country itself.

USA is a joke. Trump is on the Ep list and is doing everything it can to shift attention
😂😂😂🫢🫢😂😂🤣USA🤡🤡🤡🤡
The SA government is like the Jack Russel doggie of bricks, makes all the noise, and hopes the Rottweiler came to save him from the pittbull 😂😂😂
SA has been spooking d usa in terms of bricks, everything……so it was dumb nd emotional for SA to go against d west ….very dumb learn frm india
South Africans are concerned about the sanctions to be imposed both to the government and to some ANC political politicians as it will have a huge impact on South African businesses especially Agoa but that does not mean that South African government has to compromise its stand towards Brics Nations as alternative for trade and I like the stance South African government has taken to negotiate trade relations with China, Russia and Western countries. America keeps on isolating itself from the rest of the world by seeing other countries forcefully support it financially through sanctions and that is not a good reflection.
Where is the proof that South Africa was involved on Oct 7
Netanyahu and Trump must face jail for Gaza genocide.
American problems are not our problems , their enemy are not our enemy. They can do what ever they want we don't care. We are not gonna be bullied
Despite the financial struggles my family and I faced, everything is finally falling into place!
Weekly earnings and wealth of $47,000. I will always praise the Lord!!!
Ramampara and the ANC is such an embarrassment to South Africa.
5 Economy Killers RUINING South Africa's Future Since 1994. Have a look at the truth.
This Ayanda chick wearing a Palestinian Kaffeya on her head.😂 when the sanctions and tariff's hit… blacks are going to kak off in SA and then blame apartheid again.
I hope President Trump destroys the ANC agenda and the corrupt clowns of Ramaphosa
You South Africans and playing with fire
Now "sise kakeni"
SA is complicit on Okt 7. We want ICC charges on SA 😮
Pandor is behind selling out South Africa.
I hate this thing called ramaphosa Nd he annoys me with his disgusting walk
This is how low USA goes because we caught Netanyahu USA pulls a dirty move like this😂
Sick Zionist
South Africa 💪🦾 USA 🥵 super power for nothing. Scary for China and Russia so is trying to put SA as an example nx
Come on USA. What a joke.
Im a South African again its all lies, lies lies…. i am so tiered of lies. I pray Trump sends people here to live here atleast for a year and they will see for themselves
Aipac has spoken 😂 Mossad with Epstien files has them by their b*ll$
She makes an emphatic statement that SA has no ties to Hamas… how does she know? Is she the director of National Intelligence in South Africa? She is parroting ANC responses. She is not a representative of South Africa, but the ANC.
🤣🤣🤣 Trump doesn't care whether Ramaphosa comes to the table. They represent almost zero per cent of US trade, which other African countries will likely run to replace. Now that the Congo conflict has been solved, the US will invest heavily in the Congo because they have huge reserves of minerals, and it is very firmly on the US side against China and Russia. So carry on dreaming, mate. You politicians are stealing you dry, and it won't be long before you will be bankrupt… and don't think China is going to come running. They won't. They are nearly bankrupt, and US tariffs will tip them over the edge.
This is the biggest load of utter shit. 🙄 Rather get AI to generate your pathetic propaganda
Yes its true… Palestinian flags are all over South Africa
Thank America for fighting corruption for US.
As South Africa we don't regret supporting Palistain. We are Bricks nation
Yup, Sanction them .
