NELSON MANDELA…MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING…

'THE HAPPY TERRORIST'

In what is yet another example of just how upside down things have gotten in the world today, it would appear that tens of thousands of people have united in a noisy celebration today at a rain-soaked emotional memorial service for a man who, while it continues to be claimed was some sort of global freedom icon, was really nothing more than a common thug who spent much of his time in the employ of the old Soviet Union. That man is, of course, Nelson Mandela. The service was attended by presidents and princes and watched by millions around the world. Apparently the only world leader with sufficient moral courage, and the good sense, not to show up was Benjamin Netanyahu.

But never fear Barry "Almighty", eager to take any opportunity to speak before a crowd, did show up and launched into all manner of flowery prose as he set about to eulogize a fellow socialist. He went so far as to describe Mandela as being a "giant of history" who became more than a smiling icon by showing the power of political action. "It is hard to eulogize any man . . . how much harder to do so for a giant of history, who moved a nation towards justice," Barry said in speaking of a man who was really nothing more than a ruthless psychpath who was responsible, in one way or another, for the death of countless innocent victims most of whom, of course, white. But let’s not go there.

To me it should be considered as being nothing short of a national embarrassment for the United States, that four of our presidents would actually choose to make the trip in order to "honor" such a man as Mandela. And I can’t help but wonder, especially since Barry seemed to be so eager to shake the hand of Raul Castro who was also in attendance, if the same level of tribute awaits someone like Fidel Castro. A man whom will most assuredly be greeted by Mandela once he reaches ‘his’ final destination. These are men of very similar character, who were not afraid to use whatever level of violence that was necessary to bring about their twisted vision of government.

Barry and Mee-Shell flew in on Air Force One early in the morning, together with former president George W. Bush and his wife Laura. Two other ex-presidents, ‘Slick Willie" Clinton and Jimmy "Dumber Than Shit" Carter arrived separately. Also included on the list of ‘world leaders’ apparently quite desperate to pay tribute to this scum was British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Francois Hollande. And that such men, whether out of fear of being called racist, or out of some attempt to elevate themselves in the eyes of others, could lower themselves to attend such a ‘memorial service’ as this, makes clear the sad state of the world today.

Mandela’s eldest daughter, Makaziwe Mandela, told the crowd how her father spent a "wonderful" week surrounded by family before he died. "The children were there, the grandchildren were there ... so we are always around him, even at the last moment," she said. But, I wonder, how many people, because of the actions of this sadistic mass-murderer, were robbed of ever being able to be surrounded by their families? But then I suppose that should be over-looked because, after all, what we’re supposed to believe was motivating Mandela was that blacks in South Africa were being oppressed. That’s to be seen as justifying all of the senseless violence and death brought about by this man.

I am curious about something, though. Am I the only one who finds it as being a bit ironic that the man who is supposed to be identified as being the leader of the free world, has what can only be described as being a rather sick fetish for wanting to hobnob with those leaders who seek only to keep their people oppressed and living in abject fear of their government? It seems that Barry has absolutely no qualms, whatsoever, when it comes to shaking hands with dictators of nearly every stripe, or in wanting to seen as paying tribute to those who are essentially nothing more than common mass murderers. Is this the type of behavior that we expect to see from our president?

JESSE ‘THE EXTORTIONIST’ JACKSON PRAISES MANDELA…


Well, if we can believe Jesse ‘The Extortionist’ Jackson, which is rather doubtful, in his last conversation with Nelson Mandela, the former South African president, as well as a murdering terrorist, Mandela supposedly admitted that he was actually glad he was caught and jailed for 27 years before he ended up with the blood of innocents on his hands. ‘Before’ he ended up with the blood of innocents on his hands? I’m not really sure what the Hell Jackson is talking about, because Mandela died with more than a little blood on his hands.

Anyway, I’m guessing in what must have been an attempt by to make excuses for the supposed ‘peace loving’ Mandela, Jackson told Fox News Channel's "Special Report" that Mandela had joined the military arm of the African National Congress, having decided that the only way to fight Apartheid was through violence. After blowing up bridges and other infrastructure, they turned to schools and other buildings. The fact that he was caught and imprisoned prevented his actions from escalating. Sorry, but that’s just plain BS.

Even Fox News commentator George Will was among heaping praise on Mandela, noting that he never showed bitterness for his 27 years of imprisonment. "If he felt no bitterness, that was astonishing. If he understandably felt it and never expressed it, that's more astonishing," Will said. No offense to Will, but I would have thought he’d do some homework before rushing to praise Mandela. Mandela got what he deserved, and I can only assume that Will is either oblivious to Mandela’s bloody past, or simply chose to ignore it.

Jackson's description of the older Mandela, relieved he never killed innocents, may have at least partially explained his feelings. Jackson was one of the first to meet Mandela as he was freed from his cell in 1990. "The release of his body took us to unbelievable heights of joy. The release of his spirit takes us to unbelievable depths of sadness and pain," Jackson told Fox News. Actually what should have been made to happen is for Mandela to die in the same manner that he is known to have inflicted upon others. I believe it’s called, necklacing.

So, I guess, we will now have the likes of Jackson out there doing their best to perpetuate the myth of a man who was essentially nothing more than a racist and a cold blooded killer. It’s actually quite sad that blacks, who really have very few bona fide heroes that they can genuinely be proud of, are now reduced to having to celebrate the life of a terrorist, and, in the process, seem quite determined in their efforts to paint him as being some sort of saint. But a saint is something that he most definitely was not. But that won’t stop these folks from trying.

NELSON MANDELA: THE MAN VS. THE MYTH…


Look, before we start falling all over ourselves in some misguided attempt to declare that in losing Nelson Mandela, the world has somehow been made to suffer some irreplaceable loss, let’s pause for just a minute. I know we’re all supposed to think of Mandela as being a man who is said to have been some great lover of peace and a seeker of racial equality, but it might be worthwhile to review a few of the actual facts regarding the man. The story that Mandela was some selfless, humble, freedom fighter turned cheerful, kindly old man, has long been told in the West. So I suppose it’s only natural that one would assume that if there is an international leader anywhere on whom we can universally heap praise upon, it must most assuredly be Mandela. But not so fast, because if you bother to take the time to look past the halo that has been placed above his head, you soon begin to realize that the man has very few similarities to the myth.

The official story is one that goes a little something like this: Mandela was born in 1918 into the Thembu tribe’s royal family. He studied law at two prestigious universities and became involved in "anti-colonial politics," joining the African National Congress (ANC). He was committed to non-violent protest in gaining sovereignty for blacks. In 1962 he was arrested and convicted of sabotage and conspiracy to overthrow the government and was sentenced to life in prison. An international campaign lobbied for his release, which was granted in 1990, and he was hailed as martyr of white racism by the international media. This popularity propelled him to be elected president of South Africa in 1994, where he continued with his struggle to "end ethnic tensions and bring about racial equality." Over the years, Mandela has received over 250 awards, including the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize, the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Soviet Order of Lenin.

Now that we’ve managed to get past the bullshit story presented to the world in an effort to build up the man into something that he most definitely was not, it’s important for us to realize that nearly all of what we have been told about the man is essentially nothing more than a myth, and one that resembles very little the real story of just who, and what, this man really was. Because, you see, the real story is one that portrays Mandela as being a man who was not imprisoned for opposing apartheid, or even segregation, in Africa. The reason that he was actually put in prison was because he was a communist terrorist murderer-bomber in the service of the Soviet Union. The ANC’s guerrilla force, known as uMkhonto we Sizwe—MK, or "Spear of the Nation"—was founded in 1961 by Mandela and his advisor, the Lithuanian-born communist Jew Joe Slovo, born Yossel Mashel Slovo, who was officially named secretary general of the South African Communist Party in 1986.

Slovo, this buddy of Mandela’s, had been the planner of many of the ANC terrorist attacks, including the January 8, 1982 attack on the Koeberg nuclear power plant near Cape Town, the Church Street bombing on May 20, 1983, which killed 19 people, and the June 14, 1986 car-bombing of Magoo’s Bar in Durban, in which three people were killed and 73 were injured. Then in 1962, Mandela was arrested along with 19 others, half of whom were White communist Jews, in a police raid of ANC headquarters at a farm owned by Andrew Goldreich, who was also a communist Jew, at Rivonia, a Johannesburg suburb. In the Rivonia Trial, which took place between 1963 and 1964, the defendants were tried for 221 acts of sabotage designed to overthrow the government and conspiring to aid foreign military units. So you see, the more we look, the more we see how Mandela is far from being the saint that we’re all supposed to believe him as being.

The prosecutor, a man by the name of Percy Yutar, said at the trial that "production requirements for munitions were sufficient to blow up a city the size of Johannesburg." Stop and think about that for a minute. Does this sound, even remotely, like the actions of a man who we are supposed to revere? Mandela managed to escape the death sentence, but was given life in prison. By 1990, the communists behind Mandela had gained enough power to force his release. Apartheid was abolished in 1992 and the ANC was put into power in 1994 with Mandela as president. Slovo became his secretary of housing. It was shortly thereafter that Mandela and Slovo, along with a group of ANC leaders, were filmed chanting a pledge to kill all whites in South Africa. Not exactly the actions of a man who we’re told was some lover of peaceful disobedience. He was, in fact, a racist. Which, I guess is acceptable as long as he wasn’t white.

Current South African President Jacob Zuma, also of the ANC, was also filmed as late as January 2012 singing a song called "Kill the Boer" in front of a crowd of thousands of blacks while they cheered and danced. The song advocates the murder of the descendents of the original white settlers of South Africa, with lyrics encouraging blacks to gun down the farmers with machine guns. Mandela’s ex-wife Winnie, also a longtime ANC activist, prefers a method called "necklacing," where a gasoline-filled tire is placed around the neck of a victim and set ablaze. "With our boxes of matches and our necklaces we shall liberate this country," she is infamous for saying. (Mandela was in solitary confinement at the time of the necklacing torture-murders. An estimated 3,000 victims died by necklacing.)

Since 1994, 68,000 whites have been brutally tortured and murdered by blacks in South Africa, in ways too gruesome to describe, including almost 4,000 Boers whose farms were confiscated by savage murderers, a combined area of over 25,000 square miles. Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of blacks in South Africa aren’t natives, but came by the millions from neighboring countries only after the white Boers created a country with a thriving economy, education opportunities and medical benefits. Under white rule, blacks in South Africa enjoyed better living conditions than any other African country, where blacks kill each other in tribal warfare. But with the advent of black rule, the country rapidly became nothing more than a cesspool sitting there at the bottom of Africa. It would seem that went blacks become determined to live in squaller they have very little trouble making that a reality.

In 1994, the same year Mandela took power, the Hutu tribe killed 800,000 Tutsis in Rwanda. Similar tribal genocides have taken place in Congo, Somalia, Ethiopia, Chad, Mali, Zimbabwe, Angola and many more African countries. Tribal savagery and genocide has always been a way of life for Africans. Upon Mandela’s assuming the presidency, South Africa was quickly put on the fast track to becoming just another Third World country. It went from being the safest country in Africa, to being the rape and murder capital of the world in nearly record time. In fact, in Johannesburg, 5,000 people are murdered every year and unemployment went from 5% in 1994 to 50%. South Africa also has the largest number of people infected with HIV/AIDS in the world. But such a turnaround should have been expected. After all, what experience could he call upon in his effort to govern. It’s much like choosing to elect someone who has never been anything other than a community agitator.

So as we look beyond the media myth of Mandela, it quickly become all the easier to, instead of grieving over his lose, simply say, "good riddance" to he who was a very bad man. And instead of being ushered into heaven for his many humanitarian actions, it is far more likely that he will be spending eternity in that ‘other’ place. Because while it may easy to fool those on this plane, fooling those on the other side, those who decide in which direction we will go after spending our allotted time here on earth, is simply impossible. So I hope that he enjoyed his time here, because if there is any justice in the afterworld, he will be spending the rest of eternity doing nothing more than to tend the fires of Hell. But look, I’m sure he’ll be able to get along quite well with those that he will be meeting up with there. And I’m sure they be able to compare stories of the atrocities that they took part in, and the number of innocents that they managed to murder all in the name of their respective causes.
