@swampmusiclover Nelson Mandela fought for the freedom of his people. Peaceful means were the foundation of his struggle! However, when kids, women were killed, tortured by the police and armies, he had to do what he had to do. The real terrorizers were actually those well-armed, well-trained Whites of Apartheid shooting live ammunition at Black schoolchildren! That was a genocide!

Great video. I really enjoyed it. What sound tracks were you using? The music was beautiful.

What song was this? (The one after the first).

Given that you can't spell, have less than a basic grasp of the English language or of history, and can only seem to respond in monosyllabic coarseness, I feel there's little or no point in talking to you.

My point still stands and you have done nothing to dissuade me from my opinion (and you never will). Still I suppose (your) ignorance is bliss to you

I watched the whole video and it is very accurate! I say this as a dual citizen of the USA and RSA who's read and lived the history. Great job.

@mufcstokesy

one simple reason - you aint allowed to say NOTHING bad about mandela cos he's black

history has been re written to show that he was a "freedom fighter" when in fact he was and still is a terrorist

[dearmalika]

Great vid!

[mufcstokesy]

what drives me mad is that nelson madela is looked upon as a hero(which he is) and the IRA are seen as a shower of terrorist scum! but they used pretty much the same tactics as nelson mandela?? can some1 please explain this to me? and if anything the irish have been the most down trodden people in the history of man!
