The Mandela Question
So what is justified to redress apartheid?
That’s really the only question. A system designed to keep a minority in ‘country club’ style at both the economic and political expense of most other people, who are easily identified by color leaves us all shaking our head. It’s so un-american ,1 million Americans became casualties to ensure this kind of system ended here.
A system like that sooner or later, ESPECIALLY when backed by an entity such as the Dutch Reformed Church (of South Africa) will eventually self justify any and every brutality.
So if you want to overthrow that, what is justified?
Well, if I am in the majority and watching my own children’s hopes and dreams atrophy .. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING.
And so, it was with Mr. Mandela. Sometimes we are defined by our enemies for history. Thus all his reported approvals and actions of ‘terrorism’ are washed away in the crimes of the SA regime and his 27 years in prison.
When victorious however he made a choice that will be his legacy. There could have been a frenzy of years of righteous retributions and reckonings, but he chose other and it is THAT which marks him.
Of course in his execrable friendship with Qaddafi and Castro who are/were BRUTAL, BRUTAL dictators every bit as disgusting AND MORE as DF Malan, and what he launched, Mandela shows he also could not get around in his personal choices what helped power his revolution.
He was associated with some evil creatures, but defeated an evil regime and prevented a civil war which considering how armed the people were, would have been astonishing.,
Not bad.
But no MLK. Nor a Washington.
And there we have it. Shaped by the crimes against him and his people, he rose above those when it counted, but remained in that shape.
Not bad.
