In a pitch-perfect tribute, Mr Miliband praised Mr Mandela as an “enduring and unique symbol of courage, hope and the fight against injustice. “

No biased there. lol

Tory grandee Sir Malcolm Rifkind stunned MPs by saying ending apartheid was more difficult for the white South African leader FW de Klerk than for Nelson Mandela.

The headline says something very different from the first sentence. The former is obviously false, whereas the latter is obviously true.

A communist and a terrorist who’s organization killed people, he was only called a saint by the nice liberals.

Blah blah blah.
In the immortal words of John Wayne:
“They talk too much.”
Mandela was a mutt.

Everybody is trying to get in the act of kissing Mandela’s old dead terrorist ass. Even Ted Cruz and Newt Gingrich.

One conversation that is missing is WHY was apartheid implemented in the first place? The answer no one wants to discuss is the fact that there was uncontrolled illegal immigration into South Africa.

I don't know the answer to this....Did Nelson Mandala do all that he could to protect the white population of South Africa during the end of apartheid? Does South Africa protect their interests now?

If not, the praise to Mandala and his followers is not justified.

One day, hopefully not, but one day Patriots here may be called upon to take back our country. And it won't be pretty. So, assuming that their goals are reached, will the next generation demonize the men who brought liberty back to our Nation?

Mandela was no saint. Very few of us are. He waged a war against injustice. War is a dirty business. He also was the only man who could have governed after the end of apartheid without the country disintegrating.

I'm no Mandela fan. Really don't give a squat. Just some thoughts....
