Mandela cured so many of South Africa's problems??

Garcon, what are you drinking? some special kind of "Go-pon-pon" coolaid?

I want some - to help me see the things you see.

Gassa;

Why do you individuals who pray to this White man nailed to a piece of wood continually regurgitate everything your masters instruct you? Do you even possess a mind of your own, to know the difference between being urinated upon and rainfall?

When Nelson Mandela died, the BBC went straight to David Cameron, then to Obama. Cameron who went to South Africa during Mandela's 25th year of imprisonment on a trip that was tantamount to support for the apartheid regime, and Obama who recently shed a tear in Mandela's cell on Robbin Island - he who presides over the cages of Guantanamo.

What were they really mourning about Mandela? Clearly not his extraordinary will to resist an oppressive system whose depravity the US and British governments backed year after year.

Rather they were grateful for the crucial role Mandela had played in quelling an uprising in black South Africa against the injustice of white political and economic power.

This was surely the only reason he was released. Today the same ruthless economic power is apartheid in another form, making South Africa the most unequal society on earth. Some call this "reconciliation".

Gassa, stop writing such nonsense.
