While a 94-year old Nelson Mandela lay critical in his hospital bed.
British National Party leader Nick Griffin's comments on twitter,
calling Mandela a murdering old terrorist caused an outcry across the
country.
'MANDELA IS A MURDERING OLD TERRORIST' - BRITISH BNP LEADER
Today
Nelson Mandela is hailed a hero in Britain, where a statue of him
stands tall outside parliament. But that has not always been the case.
And Nick Griffin's comments reflect exactly the opinion Britain had
towards Mandela at the height of the South African struggle against
apartheid.
This report is a Press-TV feature and not a sensationalist one reporting on the BNP leader's comments; what is clear is that the views of this leader coincides with the mainstream views of the political establishment prior to the mid-1980's as reported in the feature. The comments seem quaintly out of date, and is not in line with the current arrangements of the United Empire of the United States and Europe who have used the ANC for their next expression of global supremacy.
ReplyDeleteThe hypocrisy of UK Imperialism knows no bound. For over two centuries the Empire plundered, raped, killed torched, terrorized, committed genocide, human trafficking, opium trading, financial terrorism, conducted heinous crimes against humanity, and now they are calling Mandela a murderer. He might be, nothing comparable though, he was only doing it to liberate his own country from the power of the imperials.
ReplyDeleteHe is a murdering terrorist and a communist as well but then again, that is a distinction without a difference
ReplyDeletePerspective is a wonderful thing.
