It is a real stretch to call Mandela a terrorist in 2008. Whoever put him on that list needs to get fired.

Absolutely. Sure the ANC were violent, but i think the only word for someone who wouldn't use violence in that situation is coward. They were controlled by what is possibly the most horrid regime since the Nazi's. It's time to ammend the list, no doubt. It's a rare occassion when i am able to agree with Ms. Rice, but this is definately one such occassion.

They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?
