*Not-so-fun fact:* Even during the height of international condemnation, Israel STILL supported Apartheid SA. Even helped them develop nuclear weapons. Real shocker, huh??
USA and Great Britain also supported South Africa, and so did Israel but for strategic reasons : after 1973 South Africa was the only country in Africa that continued having relationships with Israel. It has nothing to do with supporting the apartheid but keeping relationships with a State for political and financial reasons, as USA and Great Britain did. Not so fun fact : The main palestinian leader was antisemite and spent 4 years in Germany during the war, and did all he could to stop the Jews from entering Palestine during Holocaust encouraging Hitler to kill all the jews. I let you imagine what the jews would have become if Hitler had won the war... Later on, the arabs troups tried to destroy Israel Real shocker huh ??

What apartheid are you wanting to march against now? Mandela was exceptional but unfortunately the leaders that followed him were less than stellar. Look at South Africa now. It’s a mess not because apartheid was abolished but because of the utter incompetence of people who were given their rightful chance to lead.
@@JohnSmith-xx9th It's a mess because apartheid was far from the only issue in SA and Mandela never truly fixed anything aside from abolishing the Apartheid system. Apartheid allowed the minority race within that country to amass all the resources, and ownership within that country while the majority had nothing, and still has nothing to this day. This issue is going to have to be corrected one way or the other or the degradation of said country will continue, and things will get seriously violent. The sad thing is, the utter incompetence is probably the best thing for the minority group in SA right now. God help them if the more competent radical groups like EFF gain enough control of the country.
The good thing about Mandela was that he didn’t let people get away with a false narrative and called them out. He had so much credibility that he didn’t have anything to lose.

@@bazle64 south Africa is one of the most corrupt and dangerous countries in the world. His legacy has been destroyed by his own comrades. Trillions stolen from the very people he fought for. So keep your racist comments and ignorance to yourself. Go and see for yourself . Mr Mandela was not a racist.
I think your citation is being misunderstood. It would appear by Mandela’s own answer, that his own morality changes from nation to nation depending on whether they support South Africa or not. As opposed to judging those nations’ leaders on how they lead. How can you support someone like Fidel who is unequivocally oppressing his own people? I can say this accurately and with full knowledge as someone who escaped Castro’s Cuba. Something Mandela should know plenty about. That said, I admire and respect Mandela. He is a giant of a man with a deep well of empathy. And it doesn’t change his original comment ‘political analysts make the mistake of thinking they’re enemies should also be ours’ It’s an accurate statement. But the question was driving at ‘how can you Mandela, given your own peoples’ struggles, support a regime that oppresses its own people?’ It was a clever dodge on Mandela’s part. He is not only a great leader but can play the political game as well. He does not want to make enemies of these supporters. Even when those supporters are doing the exact thing Mandela opposes directly. So they’re putting Mandela between a rock an a hard place. Should he disown support from immoral leaders whose very existence challenges their crusade of freedom? Who does that hurt? His own people who are now bereft of that support. So should Mandela take a stance against immorality over the short term fate of his people? I say yes, and it’s by far the more courageous thing to do. Again I have the utmost reverence for Mandela, but I don’t like seeing him play the politician, even if he is good at it. To put it another way, yes, you should bite the hand that feeds you if that hand is practicing the same acts that subjugated your own people. A tacit acceptance of their support is an acceptance of their own immorality.
@@bry8636 I disagree. Fidel, among others, provided aid in more than just rhetoric. Without which the ANC struggle may have stretched beyond the capacities of the independent movement. By answering as such, Mandela puts those taking the moral high ground in his shoes and highlights that specatators know nothing, and are able to make idealist judgements simply because they are not being oppressed. Acceptance of their support is a testament to the intensity of the struggle that black South Africans were going through, not acceptance of their immorality.
@@dorians.finney4742 I never said Fidel didn’t provide aid. The point being that he was oppressing his own people. That’s unequivocal. So by not taking a stance against oppressors there is real hypocrisy there.
@@bry8636 yes he changed his view. OF COURSE thats how humans work, how everything work. Someones bad you dont like hin someone good you like him. He said someone who changes his PRINCIPLES cant be a leader, but he always stood with his principle: to treat the other like they treat you

Mandela remained on U.S. terrorist watch lists until 2008. In 1964, he was convicted of sabotage and treason, and wound up imprisoned until 1990. TIME later described the group’s activities from 1962 as “low-level guerrilla war.” Defending the shift in strategy as a last resort, Mandela said in one of his interviews from prison, “‘The armed struggle [with the authorities] was forced on us by the government.'” Members of the African National Congress are Communists
Both South Africa's apartheid regime and the Palestine apartheid regime date back to 1948. South Africans after decades of oppression, bloodshed and humiliation won their freedom in1994. The Israeli government however continues to maintain a tight grip on their apartheid policies. It may be taking a bit longer but this too will fall.
Now our economy has been destroyed. We have a genocide. We are bankrupt. ANC has stolen from the people. We are a shithole like the rest of Africa. Don’t bless us. South Africa is now another banana republic. Like Zimbabwe.
that last phrase fits perfectly with what the US does.. blaming others for human rights abuses, but ignoring those of their friends and their own people.
Nobody has done more for this planet regardless of flaws. We’ve been around less than 300 years and helped bring peace numerous times. did Mandela state to shoot 1000 of rockets at Israel.

He is simply saying, anyone who hates someone on behalf of a friend is that friiend's puppet. In other words, there are also paid puppets, pact puppets, and voluntary puppets. So Mandela refuses to be either of those.

@@user-ys5yv2nz6w Nelson Mandela - responsible for the death of 95,000 babies? Otto Kölbl An in-depth analysis of the evolution of the infant mortality rate (IMR) in South Africa reveals a shocking reality: whereas the apartheid regime (until 1994) did not really excel in this field, the presidency of Nelson Mandela (1994 to 1999) saw a massive dying of new-born babies. Despite the efforts of his successor Thabo Mbeki, we can evaluate the number of babies who died because of Mandela's catastrophic policy at 95,000. Our media did not care at that time and still shroud this scandal in the veil of silence, which makes them also responsible. Under the apartheid regime (until 1994), the country was already among the worst performing in this field: in a ranking of the countries according to their long term effort to reduce the infant mortality rate (IMR), the county Tell me something k is Africa any better look at how many wars .

I remember watching this on TV back when I was 11 years old and falling absolutely in love with Madiba. I don't think South Africa had satellite TV back then, but I do remember having some access to CNN and Sky News broadcasts in the build-up to the Gulf War and I although I was only a little boy, I had already grown distrustful of the news as it was being fed to us by those channels based on "A" - the fact that all the Middle East really had that anyone else in the Western world could've been interested in was oil and was otherwise just a million square kilometer cat box and "B" - I couldn't understand why our own national news was always so matter-of-fact and straightforward (I don't think I knew the difference between objectivity and subjectivity yet) and the news as it appeared on CNN was always so steaming with emotion by comparison to ours. Beside that, I couldn't help but notice how much money seemed to be being spent on producing programs about almost nothing of any importance to anyone, but featured awesome action shots of fighter jets taking off and the B-52 Bomber stealthily flying through the air like the Batplane and all the crazy hectic music and stuff. Already I didn't get all the greed that seemed so obviously to drive decisions that were being reported on. It was weird. My dad was way into all of it. George Bush Sr. was one of my old man's heroes. Hell, I don't know. My dad had started bashing my face in almost every time he came home from a parents' evening at my primary school with my report. Maybe I didn't like them because my dad did like them. I just thought the whole America-will-make-everyone-do-what-it-wants-and-you-all-refuse-US-at-your-own-peril vibe was tyrannical and kind of like the way bullies do things. So I watched this and my dad muttered his way through the first half of it behind me on the sofa before storming out of the room halfway through in a huff about halfway through and leaving me to applaud him without even really knowing what I was applauding. We had it really good with Nelson Mandela. We had it pretty good with his successor Thabo Mbeki, too. Pity about the whole Jacob Zuma thing. But by the time we were halfway into Zuma's first term, we'd kinda lost our tether to the wider world altogether and Zuma's self-professed unschooled, undisciplined populist everyman kick managed to secure him nine years of South African presidency despite his starting out facing allegations of rape made by an HIV positive woman and his shaking it off with a "just take a shower and everything is fine." Man, what I wouldn't do for another Mandela , or at least for a return of his spirit to the current South African political sphere. Maybe President Ramaphosa's hiding that spirit up his sleeve somewhere and just waiting for the BRICS thing to happen before letting it out. That being said, Ramaphosa's a pretty serious businessman and VERY connected to the same things I recognized as symbols of evil when I was 11. But her, a guy can dream.
Way back on March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member Zahir Muhsein. Here’s what he said: The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct “Palestinian people” to oppose Zionism.

A man who changes his principles depending on whom he's dealing with, that is not a man who can lead a nation.
Nelson Mandela.
I think your citation is being misunderstood.
It would appear by Mandela’s own answer, that his own morality changes from nation to nation depending on whether they support South Africa or not. As opposed to judging those nations’ leaders on how they lead.
How can you support someone like Fidel who is unequivocally oppressing his own people?
I can say this accurately and with full knowledge as someone who escaped Castro’s Cuba.
Something Mandela should know plenty about.
That said, I admire and respect Mandela. He is a giant of a man with a deep well of empathy.
And it doesn’t change his original comment ‘political analysts make the mistake of thinking they’re enemies should also be ours’
It’s an accurate statement.
But the question was driving at ‘how can you Mandela, given your own peoples’ struggles, support a regime that oppresses its own people?’
It was a clever dodge on Mandela’s part. He is not only a great leader but can play the political game as well. He does not want to make enemies of these supporters.
Even when those supporters are doing the exact thing Mandela opposes directly.
So they’re putting Mandela between a rock an a hard place. Should he disown support from immoral leaders whose very existence challenges their crusade of freedom?
Who does that hurt? His own people who are now bereft of that support.
So should Mandela take a stance against immorality over the short term fate of his people?
I say yes, and it’s by far the more courageous thing to do.
Again I have the utmost reverence for Mandela, but I don’t like seeing him play the politician, even if he is good at it.
To put it another way, yes, you should bite the hand that feeds you if that hand is practicing the same acts that subjugated your own people.
A tacit acceptance of their support is an acceptance of their own immorality.
Reminds me of Hitler.
@@bry8636 I disagree. Fidel, among others, provided aid in more than just rhetoric. Without which the ANC struggle may have stretched beyond the capacities of the independent movement. By answering as such, Mandela puts those taking the moral high ground in his shoes and highlights that specatators know nothing, and are able to make idealist judgements simply because they are not being oppressed. Acceptance of their support is a testament to the intensity of the struggle that black South Africans were going through, not acceptance of their immorality.
@@dorians.finney4742 I never said Fidel didn’t provide aid. The point being that he was oppressing his own people. That’s unequivocal. So by not taking a stance against oppressors there is real hypocrisy there.
@@bry8636 yes he changed his view. OF COURSE thats how humans work, how everything work. Someones bad you dont like hin someone good you like him. He said someone who changes his PRINCIPLES cant be a leader, but he always stood with his principle: to treat the other like they treat you

Mandela remained on U.S. terrorist watch lists until 2008. In 1964, he was convicted of sabotage and treason, and wound up imprisoned until 1990. TIME later described the group’s activities from 1962 as “low-level guerrilla war.”
Defending the shift in strategy as a last resort, Mandela said in one of his interviews from prison, “‘The armed struggle [with the authorities] was forced on us by the government.'”

An in-depth analysis of the evolution of the infant mortality rate (IMR) in South Africa reveals a shocking reality: whereas the apartheid regime (until 1994) did not really excel in this field, the presidency of Nelson Mandela (1994 to 1999) saw a massive dying of new-born babies. Despite the efforts of his successor Thabo Mbeki, we can evaluate the number of babies who died because of Mandela's catastrophic policy at 95,000. Our media did not care at that time and still shroud this scandal in the veil of silence, which makes them also responsible.

"Those lands should be returned to the Arabic people." - N. Mandela.
I respect Mandela he is good person but I am disagree what he say why not Mandela oppose when Arabs fight with Israel in 1967 he didn't say that all Arabs who fight with Israel are wrong after defeating of Arab he is now trying to be a good man and said that ok now returned the land . It is not easy to win a war with 6 country
Imagine if Israel loose the war what would he say after that or did Arab returned there land ?
No land belongs to anyone need to conquer it
@@donupadhyay1555 ur name says everything.

And urs tell ur reality
To return the whole of land is impossible now. But their really should be a separate country for Palestinians, not controlled by Israel. West Bank should be free. Gaza should be free.
Incredible speech... Rest in peace.
Respect for all those who stands for the truth. Against the oppressors against cruelty against humanity
So you agree with the white people of South Africa whom is now oppressed by the Black's. You stand by the minority of whites?

A Born Leader!
We desperately need leaders like Nelson Mandela in this day and age. The current political class lack the moral courage to take a position and stick with it no matter whom they are speaking with.
The problem is the Israeli government and their supporters declare war on ANYONE who calls ISRAEL out on their immoral behavior by death or great destruction. This has too stop immediately! And, the lie that white Israel are beneficators to a land in which they never occupied as indigenous Jews.
He was in jail for years, it does not matter how you dress it up the man was a terrorist, and his wife West evil all out for self.
Yep. Also need good and humanitarian leaders like Mao Tse Tung and Stalin as well, leaders for humanity
Terrorists stick with other terrorists.

I'm a Bangladeshi 🇧🇩. I can't express how much I admire, respect Nelson Mandela. His words leave me close to teary eyes because his words are so powerful and realistic my words can't describe.
I will always love this leader for his support to the cause of Palestinian people, for his respect to the love of other leaders for their peoples.
Nelson Mandela you live in our hearts.❤️
Mr Nelson Mandela talked about Arab self determination not Palestinian self determination. By the way interesting that he did not include East Jerusalem in his list of occupied territories. For more details read the comments by Alex Amigo.
I find your comment from Bangladesh interesting as Bangladesh became independent in 1971 due to the liberation war from Pakistan. Both Pakistan and Bangladesh are Muslim countries.
@@alexamigo1572Palestinians are Arabs as far as I know so this makes no sense..?
@@alexamigo1572What exactly do you find interesting about his comment due to Bangladesh and Pakistan being Muslim countries?
Muslim loser.
I am a Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela "Madiba" fanatic..
I even named my Son Madiba Rolihlahla
This man saw humanity as one and did not invalidate anybody's struggle. Freedom is everyones right and Mr Mandelas assessment is well thought out. Unity is key.
This guy stood up for good and was unapologetic. Just saying Israel was one of the few countries that actually supported South Africans oppressive regime. Go read on it, it’s quite disgusting

who's tata madiba?
@Kenn Kenn he has two names?
@@thedbq1 Madiba is his clan name
His name is Rohihlahla Mandela. "Nelson" was a name given to him by a nun as she could not pronounce his name and wanted to Christianise him as he was the first generation to attend missionary school. It was the system used to convert Africans to Christianity in the 19th and 20th century. She named after Lord Horatio Nelson as he was a well built and prominent child. He was royalty after all.
@@thedbq1 tata means father in xhosa
If only more of todays politicians were clear and principled as this, even if you don’t agree you can have a honest discussion as you know where each other stands and know each others true character.
What a great leader, wish you were still here today 💖
Mr Mandela knows injustice better than anyone. Don't try to teach him the meaning of "struggle."
He was a man of peace but most importantly a true human being .
Tupac once said just because ur not my friend doesnt mean u cant dine in next table, ur just not invited at my table. WHY cant we all can co exist peacefully😢
Great man! Respect from Afghanistan RIP
Neslon Mandela was a man of his words.Always firm in his decision and a calm way of delivering his thoughts.Not being hypocritical or being swayed by any other person..My African brothers are lucky to have such a leader. God bless Africa.
May there be more courageous people like him who are thoughtful.

I remember watching this on TV back when I was 11 years old and falling absolutely in love with Madiba. I don't think South Africa had satellite TV back then, but I do remember having some access to CNN and Sky News broadcasts in the build-up to the Gulf War and I although I was only a little boy, I had already grown distrustful of the news as it was being fed to us by those channels based on "A" - the fact that all the Middle East really had that anyone else in the Western world could've been interested in was oil and was otherwise just a million square kilometer cat box and "B" - I couldn't understand why our own national news was always so matter-of-fact and straightforward (I don't think I knew the difference between objectivity and subjectivity yet) and the news as it appeared on CNN was always so steaming with emotion by comparison to ours. Beside that, I couldn't help but notice how much money seemed to be being spent on producing programs about almost nothing of any importance to anyone, but featured awesome action shots of fighter jets taking off and the B-52 Bomber stealthily flying through the air like the Batplane and all the crazy hectic music and stuff. Already I didn't get all the greed that seemed so obviously to drive decisions that were being reported on. It was weird. My dad was way into all of it. George Bush Sr. was one of my old man's heroes. Hell, I don't know. My dad had started bashing my face in almost every time he came home from a parents' evening at my primary school with my report. Maybe I didn't like them because my dad did like them. I just thought the whole America-will-make-everyone-do-what-it-wants-and-you-all-refuse-US-at-your-own-peril vibe was tyrannical and kind of like the way bullies do things.
So I watched this and my dad muttered his way through the first half of it behind me on the sofa before storming out of the room halfway through in a huff about halfway through and leaving me to applaud him without even really knowing what I was applauding.
We had it really good with Nelson Mandela. We had it pretty good with his successor Thabo Mbeki, too. Pity about the whole Jacob Zuma thing. But by the time we were halfway into Zuma's first term, we'd kinda lost our tether to the wider world altogether and Zuma's self-professed unschooled, undisciplined populist everyman kick managed to secure him nine years of South African presidency despite his starting out facing allegations of rape made by an HIV positive woman and his shaking it off with a "just take a shower and everything is fine."
Man, what I wouldn't do for another Mandela , or at least for a return of his spirit to the current South African political sphere. Maybe President Ramaphosa's hiding that spirit up his sleeve somewhere and just waiting for the BRICS thing to happen before letting it out. That being said, Ramaphosa's a pretty serious businessman and VERY connected to the same things I recognized as symbols of evil when I was 11.
But her, a guy can dream.
Made me cry. What a great man.
Way back on March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member Zahir Muhsein. Here’s what he said:
The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct “Palestinian people” to oppose Zionism.

"Nothing shall discourage us"
Unfortunately as a foreigner to Africa I have to say that its tragic to see the types of political games that are played by an awfully large number of African and indeed global political leaders. Just on the surface it seems as though many who take part in the goverment have the attitude of "well everyone else is doing it so I want to get my little slice of the action" not to mention the number of times in the last decade that heads of state have changed their country's constitution in order to retain an ever tightening grip in the corridors of power.
Some Jewish guys were disgusted by Mandela saying Israel should give back occupied land.
@Patriot" the streets don't change but maybe the names...I ain't got time for these games!"
@Patriot actually the land was renamed Palestine after the Roman Empire took over, and the modern day Palestinians are descendants of both Jews and Arabs who lived in the land for hundreds of years.
@Patriot then when islam came it eventually became a muslim land and out of all places why would you choose Palestine why not egypt or something?

Can you imagine the people that invaded and looted south africa much less stood by and watch it happen having the audacity to question your allegiance to the people that stood up for you at your weakest point dispite having their own struggles. To try and bully you into making the oppressor your hero and your actual ally an enemy simply because they say so.

He is making a point about American foreign policy. He’s not saying to not trust the media. Not in this instance. What he’s saying is that any sovereign nation can vilify or ally with whoever they want. He’s not in any way in bed with American interests just because he’s at the time visiting America. It’s an extremely American mindset to think that “either you’re with us or against us.” And Mandela is just calmly expressing that he doesn’t give a f***ck about who the Americans see as villains.
@@DeathWithinTenSteps I know. Which explains why USA pushes his allies in its illegal undemocratic wars.
Dp you know that US invasion of Iraq literally broke Geneva and UN protocols. Almost all of UN voted against the war only USA and 2 others agreed.

During war it was USA using Weapons of Mass Destruction (forbidden Chemical Warfsre6in Battle of Fallujah here innocents were literally gassed to death) And once again US commited another War crimes against Humanity, goes unpunished.

What a honest man with a great integrity, those words are profound.
But spoken by a snake and a liar.
