<<Mandela is a plain and simple MORON>>

I'm sorry but a comment like that makes you look like the moron. You may not agree with Mandela's politics and know very little about his achievements, but to call one of the great leaders and statesmen of the 20th century a moron is pathetic.

South Africa has 43 million people, of whom 6 million are white. Did you expect this minority to maintain control for ever through the continuation of apartheid? And after 200 years of colonial and oppressive rule, do you think everything should be fine and dandy in a new democracy only 10 years after the first ever free election? What planet are you on?

And how is Mugabe going to invade a country with 4 times the population of Zimbabwe and much greater military strength and sophistication? As much as you claim to be against it, you've been reading (and believing) that American propaganda again. :^)
