He was anti American too.
If you think about it a people disenfranchised would look to Marxism as a means to get them out of that situation. The fact is that once freedom came to south Africa, mandela did was was good for the coutnry and effectively gave up marxism. He could have easily been another Mugabe. He was not.

I am guessing Newt has never been to South Africa.

Mandela Dies and the Hype Continues

The announcement that Nelson Mandela is dead has been greeted with great sadness by many but in reality many who are aware of the crimes he committed feel differently. He has virtually been elevated to the status of “saint” but in reality he was a self confessed Communist who was responsible for the death and mutilation of hundreds of innocent people.

In his book, ”Long Walk to Freedom”, Peace Laureate, Mandela writes that as a leading member of the ANC’s executive committee, he had “personally signed off” approval of at least sixteen bombings, most of which were aimed at soft civilian targets.

Much is made of his 27 year incarceration but the South African Government did not give him the death sentence for terrorism and murder and he was offered an early release if he would denounce violence. He refused. In fact Nelson Mandela was not incarcerated on Robben Island for 27 years as is often reported. He was there for his part in the bombing of innocent people for 18 years and in March 1982 he was moved to Pollsmoor Prison in Cape Town (along with other ANC leaders Walter Sisulu, Andrew Mlangeni, Ahmed Kathrada and Raymond Mhlaba) where he was taken on frequent trips to see his attorneys and members of parliament. From there in the 1980’s he was moved to Victor Verster prison in Paarl where he lived in a house built for prison staff. There he had a white assistant who cooked his meals, cleaned house and acted as his secretary.

94 year old Mandela fell ill earlier in the year and still in critical condition, was sent home in an ambulance in September. There was ongoing speculation that he was being kept alive on life support. A variety of reasons for the postponing of the announcement were being bandied about but recent reports show that roads around his traditional home which is in a remote rural area have been dramatically upgraded. Even some of the gravel roads have been extensively repaired and re-topped. Together with the new roads, bridges and electricity, there are also new petrol stations and hotels.

Clearly the funeral of this very popular statesman will attract dignitaries from each and every country in the world. Up to now, the home town of Nelson Mandela could not have handled a state funeral of this magnitude. On Thursday 28 November the head of the SANDF cancelled all leave of all military personnel for the December period. No reason has been given.

Many whites in South Africa have greeted the news of his death with apprehension because for years there have been rumblings about the rise in the level of violence towards whites that will mark the death of Mandela. As it stands, whites are being murdered at an alarming rate and most murders are accompanied by prolonged, brutal torture including the use of clothes irons and boiling water. In October this year there were 30 brutal hate murders egged on by the ANC President Jacob Zuma who continues to sing publically about murdering whites.

Whites also suffer under stringent ANC Black Empowerment laws that make it difficult for them to find work and this has given rise to well over 700,000 impoverished whites now living in squatters camps. The laws even prevent private companies from giving aid to white squatters and orphanages that take white children have subsidies cut.

Do you have any photos of these 700,000 person white squatter camps?

I thought not.

Maybe you should actually visit the place (I have) and see for yourself.

I don't have to go and you're being there means nothing. I or anyone else can read what is going on in SA. LOL
Now you want us to think you know more than someone who lived there and had to flee.
Hell you're probably BSing anyway.

No one has had to "flee". You are talking our of utter ignorance. If you want to be spoon fed BS, go ahead. I have seen the place for myself since apartheid and you are full of crap.

SA is hardly an ideal place to live, there is much violence.

Paul,

I wish I could say I have the expertise of having visited South Africa. Bit, not having visited there, for me to argue with you would be a supreme case of arrognt arrogance. I accept your knowledgeable words.
