Nelson Mandela is a terrorist!!
 
... or so the USA believes...

Quote:

Nobel Peace Prize winner and international symbol of freedom Nelson Mandela is flagged on U.S. terrorist watch lists and needs special permission to visit the USA. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice calls the situation "embarrassing," and some members of Congress vow to fix it.
The requirement applies to former South African leader Mandela and other members of South Africa's governing African National Congress (ANC), the once-banned anti-Apartheid organization. In the 1970s and '80s, the ANC was officially designated a terrorist group by the country's ruling white minority. Other countries, including the United States, followed suit.

It just goes to show how as time passes attitudes change.
One man's terrorist is another man's martyr.
Only the final outcome, after a century, reveals, to persons no longer affected,- who were the 'goodies' and who were the 'baddies', because atrocities were being committed by both sides.

They'll be banning Gerry Adams and Martin McGuiness next.

Hang on, no they won't, they liked, and funded, that particular style of 'freedom fighter'.

George Bush is a terrorist, but he masquerades as a 21st century crusader :rolleyes:

GW is too stupid to be a terrorist ... in fact if he were any more stupid, he would have to be watered twice a day. It's hard to believe that the sperm that created him beat out 1,000,000 others.:alright:

The U.S. government never funded the IRA. The organization received private donations from American citizens of Irish descent. The IRA may also have engaged in a little Belfast bank heist to the tune of $50 million. Or so the British government suspected. Sinn Fien also indulged in money laundering according to Ireland's Justice Minister. Several police raids were conducted - as recently as '05, I believe, netting around $6 million.

For God's sake get over this man! I can hardly wait for January, 2009 so that you can commence billing and cooing over either Barak or Hillary. Either one of them will certainly be left wing enough for you.....so I don't expect to hear any more griping. OK?

Hi Barb ... I knew you were out there somewhere .... check out my Clinton joke in Anything Goes, you may get a chuckle:D i don't know how I would voter if I were an American citizen ... the Democratic race is interesting to say the least ... but, surprisingly enough, I like McCain ... don't really trust Barak ... and with Hilary? Reminds me of what Mitterand said of Maggie Thatcher: she has the legs of Marilyn Monroe and the eyes of Caligula.:hidewall:

I didn't say the U.S. government funded the terrorist who blew up our men, women, and children.

'They' referred to your fellow countrymen, those partial to wearing green, and the ones happy to fund the bombs and guns that were used on our streets.
