Anyone who doesn't espouse the leftist/socialist doctrine is immediately considered evil and everyone is happy to be rid of them.
Someone looks at Mandela they see a man of peace a man of greatness, a man who did good for his country.
The winners write the history books I guess....Mandela is lionized and for ending Apartheid that is fine, but dig deeper and you can see the truth.

Pledging to kill the whites.....sounds peaceful enough to me :shakehead:

If they meant it,literally or whole hearted they would of turned on those white men right there and then.
Besides the obvious, they, the Corsa behind Mandella went for peace.
The Northern Ireland people in pubs still sing the old war songs too even to this day,you could point that out, but it wont disrupt the peace cause its what people do that counts not their traditional songs over graves and in pubs.
Yeah and the N. Irish and the Irish aren't getting Nobel Peace Prizes now are they?Quote:

Leftist leaders get lionized? Who exactly? What you describe is your own political system and in fact your own political system is against the entire world through either actual physical invasion or else online privacy invasion. Either way, anyone who disagrees with America doesn't need a court of law, but a one way ticket to rendition. But yeah, criticize the lefties who don't really exist in the meaningful political world. It is the right wing manifest destiny types who are the real problem and they are so wacky that they sign up for Warhammer as any decent civil servant will.Quote:

Race is just the subtext, he perpetuated economic interests, that is the main point of Mandela.
Obama and Cameron will not be going to the funeral of Fidel Castro and I don't see Britain pursuing the policies of Attlee for much longer. Nobody in the Western elite looks up to or lionizes real political socialists. They have eliminated and condemned genuine socialists. Real socialists like Orwell have been used for blueprints only. Only the deranged right remain in power and socialism is almost a defunct term politically.
Ted Kennedy is one, Che Guavera, Mandela, FDR, soon to be Jimmy CarterQuote:
