Isn't there some legitimacy to Russia's claims that the new ruling government is made up of fascists, anti-semites, and russophobes? NPR recently had a speaker that denied this calling it Russian propaganda and I bought that but t

From what I am reading all this happened while he was in prison. ANC had violent members while Mandela was in prison but how does that implicate Mandela? Desmund Tutu saved a man from Necklacing so why then would he be such an ardent suppor
