"When we decided to take Israel to the International Court of Justice we knew what was going to follow - that friends of the Israeli apartheid state would isolate us and that is what’s happening now. Yes we will suffer the consequences but we are prepared because we are standing up for a just cause," Mabuyakhulu told a gathering in Durban on Monday evening.

Attendees turned up to welcome a senior Palestinian delegation to the city. They included members of Fatah, the second largest party in the Palestinian Legislature and Fatah Secretary General, Jibril Rajoub.
