Basically, he's a so-called reformed terrorist really. He did his time, but I again don't get why so many people want to kneel in front of him and give him a BJ.

Twenty seven years not enough then? Perhaps de Klerk should've insisted.
I wonder whether we'd still be looking at majority rule were he still inside.
Apartheid and majority rule didn't end because of Nelson Mandela.
People all over the world were opposed to it and actively fought against it and, for some inexplicable reason, Mandela was seen as some peace loving freedom fighter rather than the militant leader and co founder of the armed wing of the ANC.
The man is what most people would refer to as a terrorist.

He built a time machine as well as all that other stuff then?
He has a wonderful smile though
Ah yes. That clinches it.
I am. I'll be surprised if I make it to the end of this sen
Probably heard Geri Halliwell is on her way to see him again.
I thought I was the only person of that opinion. He's certainly no hero of mine.
Not exactly Gandhi though, was he.

Amen. Mandela is no saintly cuddly old man. He has NEVER renounced terror. He should still be in prison.

He would have been out a lot sooner if he renounced terrorism, but he refused.
Guess they had a change of heart even if he didn't.
My parents were never 'fans' & couldn't stand the hero worship
