GREETED BY THE AMERICAN CONGRESS WITH A STANDING OVATION MANDELA EXPLAINS THAT THE END OF APARTHEID IS A COMMON AND NOBLE CAUSE. THIS WAS NELSON MANDELA’S FIRST SPEECH WHEN HE ADDRESSED THE US CONGRESS AFTER BEING RELEASED FROM PRISON FOR HIS LIFELONG FIGHT AGAINST APARTHEID IN SOUTH AFRICA.
APARTHEID IS BORN OUT OF A SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT AND SUPERIORITY TYPICALLY BY MONARCHIES WHO CHOOSE TO CONTROL A RACE OF PEOPLE USING SLAVERY AND MILITARY OPPRESSION AND VIOLENCE. IT IS A RACIST OCCUPATION LIMITING A PEOPLES FREEDOMS DUE TO THEIR RACE IN ORDER TO EXPLOIT THEM WHICH LEAVES THEM IMPOVERISHED AND IMPRISONED BY REGRESSED COLONIAL IDEALS. COLONIALISM HAS BEEN A BRUTAL AND HISTORIC PROBLEM THAT WHEN LEFT UNCHECKED CAN DEGRADE AND DESTROY A CIVILIZATION AND UNDERMINE A PEOPLE BLOCKING THE EVOLUTION OF HUMANITY AS A WHOLE. AS ARCHAIC AND GROSSLY UNCIVILIZED AS IT IS THE WORLD IS STILL FIGHTING AGAINST APARTHEID REGIMES INSTILLED BY MONARCHIES IN THE OCCUPATION OF OTHER CULTURES AS WE HAVE WITNESSED AS RECENTLY AS THE PAST TWO YEARS IN PALESTINE THE TRAGEDY OF THE PALESTINIANS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE NAKBA SLAUGHTER OF PALESTINIANS BY JEWISH SETTLERS IN 1947. THE OCCUPATION OF NATIVE AMERICANS FROM THE 1700’S TO THE PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES OF NORTH AMERICA WAS THE BIGGEST GENOCIDE IN HISTORY WIPING OUT 60 MILLION INDIGENOUS PEOPLE WHO INHABITED AMERICA BEFORE THE EUROPEANS ARRIVED. BOTH OF THESE VRUTAL GENOCIDES UPON INNOCENT PEOPLE SEVERELY REDUCED AND ALL BUT WIPED OUT ENTIRE RACES OF HUMANITY. BOTH OF THESE OCCUPATIONS ENDED IN THE WORST GENOCIDES IN HISTORY. HITLER ATTEMPTED THE SAME FATE UPON THE JEWISH RACE IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR.
SUCH REGRESSED AND CRUEL TREATMENT OF DIVINE LIFE IS A SIGN OF A MENTAL ILLNESS AND A IMBALANCE ACTED OUT ON LIFE BY VERY SICK INDIVIDUALS DISASSOCITED FROM THEIR NATURAL HUMAN INSTINCTS OF HAVING FEELINGS AND RESPECT FOR LIFE. THEY ARE DETACHED FROM THE REALITY, VALUE AND MEANING OF LIFE ITSELF.
JUST AS ALL KILLERS ARE RESTRAINED .AND CONTAINED BECAUSE THEY POSE A THREAT TO OTHERS IN A SOCIETY THOSE WHO ARE MASS SERIAL KILLERS AS IN GENOCIDES USING ARMS AND BOMBS AGAINST AN UNARMED PEOPLE ARE A THREAT TO NATIONS AND MUST BE BANNED FROM POWER AND JUDICATED, RESTRAINED AND CONFINED BEFORE HARM IS COMMITTED.
GREAT LEADERS LIKE NELSON MANDELLA, GHANDI AND THE DALAI LAMA HAVE SPENT THEIR LIFETIME RESISTING TO END SUCH INHUMANE OCCUPATION REGIMES THAT DEVALUE AND DEGRADE LIFE.
