Why it matters:
The decision indicates the U.S.'s unquestionable support of the Israeli regime's crimes in the West Asian region. It further shows the U.S. use of bully pulpit against the international law and tribunals.
The big picture:
South Africa is known as an anti-apartheid country in the world. It has played a leading role in bringing the Israeli regime to the International Court of Justice (ICJ). This comes when global criticism of the U.S. support for Israel's war-mongering is on the rise.
What he's saying:
Esmaeil Baqaei to Iran Press: The expulsion of the South African ambassador to Washington is regarded as an action that contradicts diplomatic conventions and human rights principles.
Go deeper:
The situation highlights diplomatic tensions between the U.S. and South Africa while also addressing broader global concerns about human rights and freedom of expression. Although the U.S. has hyped itself as the champion of human rights, such actions just undermine the alleged credibility.
