Often a leader doesn't get his hands dirty, it's a well known fact, depends on how you look at it, the dreamy eyed rights people will see what they want rather than how it is.
And his wife winnie carried on for him whilst he was in prison!
who was he the leader of that he invoked to use violence? my understanding is that it was his christian upbringing and vocalizations for non violent measures EXCEPT in self defense that caused him to be incarcerated ,,,,
I have no troubles with seeing humans as they 'are', complex and constantly changing as they have new experiences and live longer,,,,
True, but then you get into a race division. Black Christians v white Christians. yes, it was the white who introduced Christianity to them wasn't it?
But if you go by what's being said now that there is no excuse for violence. you could label any opposition group as "terrorists "I guess
As if a label makes it any better.
I guess what the British did in Africa could be compared with settlers of America? Question?
I don't really see the racial element to Christianity but where perception about theft of land or oppression and murder for the power over land already occupied is concerned
or course it could
It definitely had a race division in the early days,
And wasn't that how America was formed? By the theft of land from the natives?
theft? no, taken is a better term... as with most history, they weren't strong enough to keep what they had... happened all throughout history... Genghis khan, the english, greeks and romans, everyone has their hands dirty in history when taking over the weaker peoples for land and monetary gain...
