Firstly, we believed that as a result of Government policy, violence by the African people had become inevitable, and that unless responsible leadership was given to canalize and control the feelings of our people, there would be outbreaks of terrorism which would produce an intensity of bitterness and hostility between the various races of this country which is not produced even by war. Secondly, we felt that without violence there would be no way open to the African people to succeed in their struggle against the principle of white supremacy. All lawful modes of expressing opposition to this principle had been closed by legislation, and we were placed in a position in which we had either to accept a permanent state of inferiority, or to defy the Government. We chose to defy the law. We first broke the law in a way which avoided any recourse to violence; when this form was legislated against, and then the Government resorted to a show of force to crush opposition to its policies, only then did we decide to answer violence with violence.

What has made Mandela a great man? The international media has done so, no one else! Mandela is a terrorist....why don't the media talk about his training in the Soviet Union back in the fifties, why don't they tell the world the truth about this half caste terrorist.....because it doesn't suit their agenda and what their masters want them to say. The little bastard deserved the death penalty, never mind life behind bars, of which the mongrel only served 27 years. The day he was apprehended, the cops should have put a bullet straight through that wooden head of his....silly sods!

Yup, same sort of $hit!!!
Actually I do not like the money-loving , crooked-nose Jew’s, but I definitely hate the Palestinian-Hamas Terrorists! At least the Jews are self-sufficient and is working the land - they farm in the desert while the lazy stone-throwing Arabs just like the black Africans , like to sit flat on the ground with flies up their noses begging for food while breeding more and more of their worthless kind.
The ‘poo in the drinking-water’ was that ugly, filthy, dirty, stinking Yasir Arafat who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize along with Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres in 1994 for replacing “war and hate” with “peace and cooperation” in the Middle East, What a joke!- a PEACE PRIZE for a guy in uniform on TV swinging a gun in every photo - he never made a proper intelligent speech but was believed by Bill, the stupid boy friend of Monica Lewinsky in September 1993 !
As expected there never came peace or cooperation and Arafat was undermined by his own people and he resigned in June 2003 - the little rat then named Ahmed Qurei as his replacement.
