Which isn't surprising considering that Mandela (and the African National Congress in general) led a bog-standard terrorist campaign, including bombings and placing anti-tank mines on public roads. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Mandela https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_Mandela https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMkhonto_we_Sizwe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMkhonto_we_Sizwe The terrorism was (as usual?) a means to an end, ceasing once governmental power was obtained. EDIT: the situation may have been more subtle than that, given that the bombings and placing landmines seem to belong to the later period during which Mandela was in prison, so perhaps unable to exert enough influence on the ANC and their terrorist organizations.
