Ocalan or Mandela who do YOU think is a better person
To the 42 people who viewed this topic before it was ready
Ocalan was part of a small group of friends, who after seeing the way that fellow Kurds were suffering, formed a group of what was intended to be political activists.
Ocalan became the spokesperson for the PKK because he was charismatic and a good communicator.
The PKK realised that as a political party their existence would be short-lived - all Kurdish political parties in Turkey were short-lived - they also realised that they had to take some dramatic action to prove that they were serious.
Other Kurds attempted to gain control of the PKK and in the early days there was a lot of in-fighting - the PKK survived because they were fighting for a just cause and Kurds soon started to flock to the PKK in their thousands to fight for an Independent Kurdistan.
Whatever people say about the things that the PKK have done - it is nothing in comparison to the atrocities that the Turkish state has carried out against Kurds.
The Kurds were fighting for the right to control their traditional homeland - not so the murderous Mandela and the ANC - Mandel's roots come from a tiny area within South Africa - much of South Africa was traditionally inhabited by the Bush People, many of whom were wiped out by the murdering black tribes moving into South Africa form further north. The Bush People were a kind caring gentle peaceful race of small built brown-skinned people who stood no chance against the savage blacks from the north.
I agree that the apartheid system was grossly unfair but in no way did it compare with the barbarism that Mandela initiated.
The PKK do NOT rape and kill innocent women and children as Mandel's people did.
Whereas the PKK did it's best to educate the people - the ANC just went on the rampage destroying everything and everyone in it's path.
Perhaps to a certain extent some of the facts have been hidden since Mandela received his Nobel Peace Prize - I cannot help but feel that if people thought Mandela deserving of the Peace Prize they would probably have given Hitler one as well.
Mandela invented necklacing and for that alone he deserved to die in the most slow painful way possible - he should have been given a necklace.
