Mandela on Castro and the Cuban revolution:
From its earliest days, the Cuban Revolution has also been a source of inspiration to all freedom-loving people. We admire the sacrifices of the Cuban people in maintaining their independence and sovereignty in the face of the vicious imperialist-orquestrated campaign to destroy the impressive gain made in the Cuban Revolution.
Long live the Cuban Revolution. Long live comrade Fidel Castro.
On the U.S. war with Iraq:
If there is a country that has committed unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States of America. They dont care for human beings.
