    Except they tried exactly that. And laws were passed to prevent them from doing exactly that.

      That is obvious. Mandela did fight against the racist regime. According to you, he is terrorist. Hence, Mandela is a terrorist because he fought against racist regime.

      No, that is not correct. Mandela was charged with 193 so called terrorist activity charges. These activities were defined as act of terrorism from the same government which divided the nation. So the charges themselves hold no water.

      No sorry. You are mistaken. He didn't say that. He said he is a terrorist because the group he formed targeted civilian targets. You might challenge something in that statement, but you can't change the statement to make your point.

        In the midst of the global heart rending at hsi death, lets not forget just what he was: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umkhonto_we_Sizwe[^] Umkhonto we Sizwe was set up by Mandella and has been responsible for many deaths and injuries. So yeah, Martin Luther King he isnt, Bin Laden he is. So lets keep things in perspective eh?

        You are so right. Anyone who fought against oppression of the majority by a minority is a terrorist. Jomo Kenyatta was a terrorist. Nelson Mandela was a terrorist. George Washington was a terrorist.

          He also did a remarkable amount of good in his life in the face opposition from an apartheid government. Apartheid is the real villain in all of this. And today I am reminded also that the city I live in trolled the SA government in the mid-80s by renaming the street the South African consulate was on to Nelson Mandela Place. (I love Glasgow)

            Apartheid existed everywhere and still exists in many parts of the world, I did not deny that. The question here is if it acceptable to launch armed resistance against a government that systematically institutionalized and legalized apartheid.

                Did I ever deny that it did not exist in the Americas? I'm not sure why you're asking me this question.

                  Given that Hitler has been dead for too long and people tend to mention Bin Laden a lot these days, is there a similar law related to Bin Laden? :-)

                  The ANC attacked government installations while fighting for freedom. Bin Laden attacked civilians.

                      The English rebels, for they were English at the time, carried out bombing attacks killing civilians did they?

                      Figures produced by the South African government state that ANC actions caused the death of about 130 civilians[^]. The South African security forces killed more than that in one day at Sowete[^], so who were the terrorists?

                        You are forgetting Mandella planted bombs and killed civilians. Or perhaps you are just being stupid.

                          Can you tell me the number of people killed by bombs planted not just by Mandela but by all of ANC? How many hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have been killed by bombings by Allied air forces? How many were killed by lack of medicines, lack of baby formula, etc.? How many persons killed in Iraq or Afghanistan are "collateral damage", as it is phrased by the US or UK? Who then are the bigger terrorists? Who then is being stupid?
