wow , just been watching it on tv, woulda loved to been there, what a historic moment !!!
he’s free then :lol:
I hope so he’s ninety innit
Hope they didnt sing free Nelson Mandela then might have confused him :shock:
Could of been worse, they coulda had shakin stevens :lol:
Yes it was so moving to see al the ‘luvvies’ and ‘celebs’ jostling each other for the limelight as they celebrated Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday. Good job that the concert was free though eh?
He seems to be the living example that imprisoning somebody for decades for committing crimes of incitement to murder and sedition actually works. No longer is he a far left communist agitator; no longer does he want to murder white people; why he even accepts that HIV/AIDS really exists in Africa.
Yes he is now fully reformed and fit to have tea with the Queen.
not often I agree with PB
Next they will be canonising Bobby Sands
and he married Winnie :shock:
I read a brief biography in Friday’s papers on Nelson M and what a tragic life this guy has had.
His beloved son not only died of HIV/AIDS but steadfastly refused to have anything to do with his father throughout his relatively short life. His various wives have all been a great disappointment – especially Winnie and her shenanigans with all those young men in her bedroom (the ”football team”???).
Now he is 90, they still can’t let him have any peace to enjoy the last few years of his life. he still has to be paraded around so that the luvvies and politicians can be seen with him and thus apparently enhance their own miserable reputations.
I wonder how he would have turned out if he had not advocated the cold blooded murder of white people and the violent overthrow of government etc?
Too deep for a saturday morning! =;
Mandella fought against apartheid and became a figurehead for the freedom of black South Africans. He helped bring the plight of black South Africans to the attention of the rest of the world, and he spent 27 years in prison for his beliefs.
He was the first fully representationally elected president there, and that is a major achievement.
He stands for freedom and equality in the minds of many.
Not someone we should revere at all then.
