Ivor Ichikowitz, Zionist Jew and African arms baronFreedom Research, January 2025
“We [Israelis] created the South African arms industry”
– Alon Liel, former Israeli ambassador to Pretoria and head of the Israeli
foreign ministry's South Africa desk in the 1980s (The Guardian, 7 February 2006).
Here we make a small exposé of the Jew Ivor Ichikowitz, the "African arms baron", "founder of the Paramount Group, one of the continent’s leading arms vendor, based in South Africa" (The Africa Report, June 16, 2023), whose Paramount Group in 2016 even boasted: "Ivor Ichikowitz is one of Africa's most influential people"
This smart peddler made his first bucks with his Paramount Group - founded in 1994 - deviating the then-defunct Apartheid Régime's weapons industry towards African states, thus indirectly fuelling the civil wars (not really the weapons-into-plow-bills type of approach), later also buying up Apartheid-era weaponry, the infamous French Mirage F1 jets.
With usual Jewish chutzpah, this merchant-in-death on his private website (Ichikowitz Family Foundation) presents himself as "an African industrialist and philanthropist with a passion for Africa and its people", with more of the usual Jewish blah-blah-blah: "Ichikowitz is a firm believer in the African ethos of ubuntu; he exists because of others and it is this philosophy which underpins his commitment to philanthropy..."
Ichikowitz has succesfully sold this image as a "philantropist" and his "Ichikowitz Family Foundation" was even heavily promoted by CNN's "Inside Africa" (December 2024), the program not ever, ever, mentioning his arms trader-background!We invite you to see the +20 min long CNN segment to see the deceptive tactics used to fool the viewer that Ichikowitz is a saint and saviour of Africa.
What CNN doesn't show you of the "philantrope" - the real face of Ivor Ichikowitz:

Africa Aerospace and Defence air show in Cape Town, in 2008.
Apart from the accusations of suppliying the civil war in the Congo (DRC), we also know that Ichikowitz has supported the Saudis in 2019 as they were waging their murderous war against Yemen, and had cooperation witht the super-corrupt Arabs running UAE.Ichikowitz' Paramount Group has also been involved in the unrest/civil war/"islamist insurgency" in neighbouring Mozambique, supplying the government forces with military aircraft and gear. The article "Mozambique acquires transport aircraft from Paramount Group" (South African site Defence Web, 17th November 2022), noted:
Paramount has supplied a variety of equipment to Mozambique’s military, including Marauder armoured personnel carriers and Mi-8/17, Mi-24 and Gazelle helicopters. Six Marauders fitted with heavy machinegun turrets were seen taking part in a September 2021 parade in Pemba, along with a single Mi-24 attack helicopter (FA-117), an armed Mi-8/17 (FA-093) transport helicopter and a Gazelle light helicopter.
Ivo Ichikowitz is also described as "a devout backer of the African National Congress and a member of President Jacob Zuma’s inner circle" (The Toronto Star, December 4, 2011) and the former African National Congress treasurer Mathews Phosa was in 2018 appointed as Chairman of Paramount South Africa.
So the rot goes to the top, all the way to the former revolutionaires, now -cum-capitalists/businessmen.
Ichikowitz and son with Nelson Mandela
Although Ichikowitz in his fake CV portrays himself as a "an activist in the struggle against apartheid", this Jew has completly forgotten ANC leader Nelson Mandela's words: "We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians." Thus Ichikowitz has tried to use his political clout within ANC to campaign against South Africa's official political stance vs Israel during the 2023-2025 Gaza War/Massacre.See for instance his long opinion-piece published in the Chicago Tribune, "South Africa’s genocide case against Israel is rank hypocrisy" (), where Ichikowitz laments that "It might turn out to be the worst decision the country has ever made":
I am a proud South African. I have also been a member, a supporter and a fundraiser for the African National Congress for more than three decades, but I’m also a Jew. [...]
I feel betrayed. I feel that Jewish South Africans have been rendered second-class citizens in the land of their own birth. The government did nothing to commiserate with the South Africans slain on Oct. 7 and did little to try to repatriate those caught in the conflict thereafter. [...]My country’s decision to take Israel to court could be the final unmasking of the South African miracle in the eyes of the world, ironically the year we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Mandela enabling millions of South Africans to cast their vote for freedom.
What a truly tragic epitaph on his promise we once held so dear.
Note that in the opinion article presented to an unsuspecting non-Jewish audience above, Ichikowitz is described as "an industrialist and a philanthropist" who "chairs the Ichikowitz Family Foundation, a leading African-based foundation supporting the development in Africa". Nothing at all about arms or weaponry!
(See also Ichikowitz' article: "South Africa should be truly non-aligned–and stop risking its vital trade ties with the West" (IFF, January 26, 2024), complaining about "South Africa’s most recent position, outrightly hostile to Israel and very sympathetic to Hamas".
See also his op-ed article to fellow Jews published in the South African Jewish Report (January 25, 2024), "Taking Israel to court could be SA’s worst decision", which is a slightly altered version of the Chicago Tribune piece.
So much for this guy being "African"...
And the end it comes to the old conclusion: A Jew is a Jew is a Jew – and a Zionist...
This angle has not been lost on those opposing the rapprochement between Israel and the South African elites. The article "Will ANC government ever prosecute South Africans in Israeli Army?" by Eddie Cottle of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (Pambazuka News, 29 April 2015), notes:
The leading countervailing force in relation to the ANC government’s complicity is said to be Zionist, Ivor Ichikowitz of the Paramount Group the largest private arms dealer in Africa who flew Zuma to a United Nations meeting. A Mail & Guardian probe (13 March 2009) of Ichikowitz’s relations with the ANC and prominent Zuma backers indicates a man who has made it his business to get close to key power-brokers. Ivor Ichikowitz not only flew Mandela to a Zuma elections rally in Transkei, but also flew Zuma in his luxuriously converted Boeing 727 to Lebanon and Kazakhstan for African National Congress (ANC) fundraising and business meetings.
Moeletsi Mbeki, brother of the former president, opened doors for Ichikowitz into Africa and Mathews Phosa, shared a number of company directorships with Ichikowitz before his elevation to ANC treasurer. These are just a few known direct business and political links by top ANC leaders to leading Zionists businessmen and Israel supporters. What do we not know about? This reality goes a long way to explaining the ANC leaders pro-Palestinian rhetoric but no concrete action against the Israeli regime, despite all its atrocities against the Palestinians.
With the ‘incremental genocide’ underway in Palestine, according to Israeli historian Ilan Pappé, world action is most urgent. The time has come for the ANC government to prosecute South Africans serving in the Israeli Defence force or has the ANC lost its moral compass completely?
Ivo Ichikowitz is also the sponsor of Jewish supremacist Chabad's African "Tefillin Bank", "The Ichikowitz Family Tefillin Bank of Africa" (see Chabad link here and see the Tefillin Bank of Africa link here).
The purpose of the bank is mentioned in this introduction from their homepage (emphasis in red, added by this site):
The Tefillin BankThe International Tefillin Bank was founded in the USA and brought to Africa by Rabbi Dovid Wineberg in association with the Ichikowitz family. The Tefillin bank of Africa exists to make Tefillin accessible to Jewish males throughout Africa by providing every committed Jewish male with a pair of Tefillin. This initiative aims to bind Tefillin to Jewish males in Africa through education and core torah values and will ultimately lead to greater protection and security for the State of Israel, South Africa and the Jewish Community.
The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M Schneerson OBM has for decades emphasized the tremendous spiritual virtue of Jewish men fulfilling the Biblical commandment to bind Tefillin as a sign of service to G-d and a oneness of the Jewish People.
IIn this spirit the Tefillin Bank of Africa is committed to your commitment.

Ivo Ichikowitz' commitment to the Jewish state goes further than that.In 2014 it was revealed that he personally bonded with Israel's ambassador to South Africa, Arthur Lenk and his family, hosting what could be viewed as a bribe holiday to the representative of the Israeli state.
The Times of Israel (25 June 2014), writes:
Ambassador Arthur Lenk, who has been serving as Israel’s envoy to South Africa since August 2013, allegedly accepted a VIP weekend safari for himself and his family from billionaire Ivor Ichikowitz, Israel’s Channel 9 News reported. [...]
According to the Channel 9 report, Ichikowitz and Lenk first met at a party at the ambassador’s residence in October 2013. Two days later, Lenk and his family were seen boarding an Ichikowitz plane to the Madikwe Game Reserve and spending a weekend at the Molori Safari Lodge, also owned by the South African businessman.
Rates at the Molori Safari can reach as much as $1,700 per person for a night.
Lenk and member of his family posted photos on Facebook and Twitter of their weekend away, including pictures of South Africa’s famed fauna. Some photos included the Lenk and Ichikowitz families enjoying their time together. [...]
Sources in the Foreign Ministry told Yedioth Ahronoth that if the information is correct then it reflected a complete lack of judgment. “An ambassador cannot receive a gift of this size,” a source told the Israeli daily. “It is not appropriate. We are talking about a family flying and staying at a hotel on the dime of a private businessman.”
"Envoy to South Africa suspected of taking illegal gifts", The Times of Israel, 25 June 2014.

We have here with the case of the weapons merchant Ivo Ichikowitz shown, again, the deceptive, manipulative tactics of Jews. Earning money in unscrupulous ways at the expense of the non-Jews - the goyim - while pretending to be especially noble and humanitarian ("Tikkun Olam" - "repairing of the world"), and then using/misusing the wealth and clout thus gained to infiltrate and undemocratically politically influence the top echelons in the country the Jew for the moment resides in, but still having the Zionist project called "Israel" in Jew-occupied Palestine as the real darling and land to care for, the country to where the loyalities really lie.
