Show some proof that that is a real image and not a photoshopped one. It came from an anonymous source. Neutral will do anything to prove he's an asshole. |

Nelson Mandela may well have been a communist in his early days and his goals (the fight against apartheid) and the goals if the communist party )the fight against apartheid) nay have converged in his adult years, To attempt to smear him as a "communist terrorists" as some right wing publications have done, is just so much BS proving that the right wing will say and do anything to gain and maintain power or influence. That's Machiavellian at its worst. |

Did the radical right wing in the US or anywhere lead any fight to end the horrid practices and excesses of apartheid in South Africa? I don't think so. |

Amazing how the mention of (black) Mandela brings out the racist bigots. |

Look up "necklacing" and tell me he and the ACA were not terrorists. As far as him being a communist that is a given. |

I haven't read anybody saying he wasn't a terrorist, however, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. I see Mandela as a freedom fighter using the only real weapon he had, terrorism. Terrorism has been used nearly everywhere in the world where people fight oppression. |
