Think about who Marxism generally appeals to -- the poor, downtrodden and oppressed.

Now think about who generally has fit into that category in the old colonial holdings.

Do the math.

I come up with 100 Million innocent civilians who have been murdered by communist regimes.

Way to miss the point entirely. Not suprising in the least.

The other don't even come close.

That 100 million murdered by communist regimes doesn't include soldiers or civilians caught in the crossfire during war.

Communist Body Count

MURDER BY COMMUNISM

Actually, you misunderstood. How does a communist body count have anything to do with the reason why many black leaders are communist? Communism has been generally a world view of the down trodden, who have been oppressed by the bourgeoisie. Not saying it was a GOOD idea, but that's why.

Any anti-colonialist African is viewed as a Marxist. Just ask your buddy Newt.

I don't have any buddies named Newt. A Newt sounds like a lure for bass fishing.

The entire Sub-Sahara Africa is a basket case today, Come to think of it, all of North Africa is a basket case today but that's mostly because of Obama's failed foreign policies.

The reason Sub-Sarah Africa is a basket case is because during the 1960's when the European colonial powers were granting independence to all of their colonies in Africa, they didn't prepare the people of those former colonies for self governing themselves.

Where as in the Philippine Islands the United States spent almost fifty years preparing the Philippines to be able to govern themselves.

If it weren't for the Afrikaans in South Africa today, South Africa would be a bigger basket case than it is today, comparable to Zimbabwe (Rhodesia)

Nelson Mendela as President of South Africa had something in common with Barack Obama as POTUS. Both are second rate and incompetent.

And as long as the majority of South Africans are uninformed or misinformed and keep voting the ANC ticket, South Africa will continue having one of the highest murder and rape rates in the world, will continue living behind wall communities and paying mercenaries to protect their walled communities. South Africa today is where having a sunroof on your car has no purpose.

The ONLY reason, South Africa isn't Zimbabwe today is because of that (recently deceased) "incompetent" Nelson Mandela. He was the reconcilor. You are just ignoring history for your political biasness, and it's disgusting.

Awesome! You just affirmed my position on everything I told Arthur Seward up there in one simple post.
 
As for the op. Maybe the talk on Right Wing radio goes tape delay instead of live like NPR because they need 24 hours to assemble talking points. After all, they had a lot to reconcile.

Officially, the goal of the Reagan administration was to end apartheid. But its behind-the-scenes work revealed a startling degree of comfort with the South African regime -- or at least ignorance of how apartheid worked. For a July 1986 speech to the World Affairs Council in Washington D.C., Reagan rejected a moderate State Department draft and instead instructed his speechwriter, Pat Buchanan, to draft a version arguing that Mandela's African National Congress (ANC) employed "terrorist tactics" and "proclaims a goal of creating a communist state." (Buchanan later dismissed Mandela as a "train-bomber" and defended the hardline position.) Reagan himself never seemed to really understand the moral repugnance of apartheid. He described the system in a 1988 interview with ABC's Sam Donaldson as "a tribal policy more than ... a racial policy."

Awesome as in you fear but respect what was said or the slang awesome that nobody has an idea what it really means ? :lol:

It's simple, Africa wasn't ready for democracy and self rule. The same is true for most of the Muslim world in the Middle East and North Africa today.

That's why I don't support "nation building" or forcing democracy upon uneducated and or stupid people in the world.

I'm a fan of self-rule, even if those people and places do the opposite of what we'd like. However, Africa has minerals we need and the ME has oil. So...

I guess I'm pro-colonialist by necessity regardless how I feel emotionally.
