Watching
all the memorial about Mandela, seeing the grieving ex wife and widow
walking hand in hand and knowing that the ghosts of the men, women, boys
and girls who were tied to a pole with a tire around their neck and set
on fire alive while Winne Mandela
cheered moderates my enthusiasm. Even the goofy sign language guy
burned two men to death in this horrible way. It makes me wonder to
what point do we excuse the ANC and the HORROR they inflicted and still
inflict on people in South Africa? When I see Winnie, I see the images
of what they did. It's for me as the horror of the Nazis burning Jews
... except the Nazis didn't do it while they were still alive. Make no
mistake, Mandela was a pioneer.. but there was blood... a lot of blood
and the smell of burnt flesh and the screams of pain....
