OK, I know the whole situation in South Africa, with Apartheid, the ANC etc. this isn't a racial remark or anything.
But it struck me as interesting question, Nelson Mandella, Oliver Tambo and so on, were terrorists back in the day. Why are we praising them? why does Oliver Tambo have an AIRPORT named after him, when he was responsible for the Pretoria car bombings in 1983?
Why does the world view Nelson Mandela as such a 'great' person, yet he was a terrorist?
Why isn't Osama Bin Laden viewed as a great man? it's the same principale!
Please explain.
