Topical Spitting Image

I met a nice South African once.


And when I say 'met' I mean 'doinked', and when I say 'nice' I mean 'drunk'.
 
& praising the **** who didn't allow the England try.

How long before somebody comes on her calling Mandela a terrorist?!!
 
Guerrilla activities

In 1961, Mandela became the leader of the ANC's armed wing, Umkhonto we Sizwe (translated as Spear of the Nation, also abbreviated as MK), which he co-founded. He coordinated a sabotage campaign against military and government targets, and made plans for a possible guerrilla war if sabotage failed to end apartheid. A few decades later, MK did wage a guerrilla war against the regime, especially during the 1980s, in which many civilians were killed. Mandela also raised funds for MK abroad, and arranged for paramilitary training, visiting various African governments.

Mandela explains the move to embark on armed struggle as a last resort, when increasing repression and violence from the state convinced him that many years of non-violent protest against apartheid had achieved nothing and could not succeed.[6][2]

Mandela later admitted that the ANC, in its struggle against apartheid, also violated human rights, and has sharply criticised attempts by parts of his party to remove statements supporting this fact from the reports of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.[7]


So yes, he was a terrorist and his party were an abuser of Human Rights by his own admission. Very worthy of his Noble Peace Prize.
