Its probably a good thing mandela has gone now the political party in power was trading of his name and reputation for far to long ive talked to a fair few south africans white black and coloured im not being racist thats what they actually call themselves and they all said s.a was better run by the apartheid government as in basic services not segregation obviously and it has gone down hill alot. since then so now that hes dead the country can greave move on and start fixing up the crap government they currently have in power for what it is not what it was.

Here's another example, Porsche designs the Volkswagen - the 'peoples car' or as Hitler called it 'the Strength through Joy' car and presents it to Hitler in 1938. Germans were encouraged to make down payments for the car. None of them drove one. Hitler took the money and put it in the war chest.

Cheers.
If it was not for the war Hitler would of won and England had no hope of winning in economics as he would wipe the floor with them.
Hitler had nothing against the English people at all, but for a hand full of very wealthy men.
The lead up to the war is one book you could say and then the war is another thing.
Churchill nearly destroyed England and it did not have to push for a war that went on as long as it did.
The german people lost all faith in capitalism due to 200% interest and so on that most Germans thought communism was the only way, due to the hand that had been dealt to them and this gave rise to all the madness.
The poor buggers !

The same could be said some how for the workings with the story of mandela and all, as people are pushed to think it was the white people that were the problem by the TV educated dolts. it was much more to it than that and the stupid sanctions were not helpful at all coming from people who were not exposed to the truth of reality. talk about ignorance. how would you like it with some fool sticking his nose into your business, who does not have to put up with it all. but turns up dictating to you and goes on his merry way.
There is a lot more to it all then meets the eye.

I really wonder at some of the people here. Someone well respected in today's world dies and gets compared to one of the worst Megalomaniacs in history.... unbelievable !
