"For anybody who changes his principles depending on whom he's dealing with, that not a.man who can lead a Nation" Nelson Mandela Honestly you did paralyzed the man tho😂
It is not a mistake; it is an ideology based on a history of capitalist domination, colonialism, genocide, sense of superiority, etc. that have been inculcated in the minds of Westerners since childhood and school. How is that a mistake? History is not a mistake; it is what states and people do in a particular social and political economic context to advance their ideological and material interests, mainly the interests of the rulers and the ruling classes. Modern European states, for example, were formed by wars and destruction. Mandela fell into the trap of Western liberal thinking and global capitalist trappings. Thus he could not lay the ground for a just and free South Africa after apartheid. Today SA is the most unequal society on earth.
agreed but it's more like the interests of American politicians & ruling class aren't the interests of the American people let alone the rest of the world
@@john-ic5pz Exsacly, so we shuld stop point fingers in religions and countrys. Problem is thet land of free think it is free but they are slaves also. Problem is thet the most of them dont know thet. USA and Izrael like brother and sister. They kill American president and make bank privat. Bank oil and gass... Problem is thet solucion is in Usa and only American people can solve it. Only you can be number 1 Set your self free lol so we culd be free.. If you dont know from who, well from Zionist in shadow of USA whit roots in Izrael... Du not send weapons to noubady and du not take weapons to go by your self to other country simply as thet you will take away the bigest pover of control in your arms and if this doesent work well then revolucion.. American: yes but dolar will go down and oil up... Planet yes but whit wars you make ewerithing is more expencive 2 times and your dolar and oil cant du thet mach shit to you as prises for food and other stuf
Me too im even emotional. The type of leaders we have now, what i see in USA election right now the kind of leaders we have now i despise it its despicable
It's because Nelson Mandela is speaking up against white supremacy apartheid oppression. Why don't the US and British political leaders acknowledge Nelson Mandela's condemnation towards Israel's apartheid regime? It's because they're racist white supremacist themselves, trying to cover up the truth about Israel and its lawless apartheid regime 😅
The Palestinian struggle lead me to this interview. He talks his mind without need to bend his words to please others. Hope Africa unites as one and be one of world respected power in years to come
When I watched this for the first time and there was a few seconds of silence between Koeppel and Mandela, I literally went to check the volume on my tablet to make sure the volume was up before Mandela spoke.😂😂😂
Your country remain friends with us from the day you said to our then south African rugby , you are not playing here in Australia up until you sort your your domestic racial problem. Thanks to you and the rest of the world, our country remain on that journey, the very people who never like our race remain feeding the world the very wrong feed back about our country. We are doing fine.
No one has the right to dominate over any other human. That’s not the way of love. That’s not the way of respect. That’s not the way of God. Nelson Mandela .. thank you so much for living out your calling & fulfilling your purpose. 🙏🏽👑🕊️
What wasn't shown here in this clip was Mr Mandela also said that Israel's treatment of the Palestinian people was very much like the Apartheid in South Africa and he was strong not to support that, nor be weighed down by fear of offending Jewish leaders who supported him and his cause. He stood strong on that point because he understood what the Palestinian people were going through. No man can be afraid of being called antisemitic just because he calls Israel an Apartheid state.
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too forevers
@@user-zj2jr1lo6i you can criticise the govt of Israel, but also the govts of Saudi Arabia, China, Russia or any other govt for policies. However, most criticism of Israel is based on ignorance and antisemitism.
Unbiased response from Nelson Mandela. A great person and a great leader. The world is in a mess right now due to lack of leaders like Mr. Nelson Mandela.
When Israel does it to innocent Palestinians that's OK though. They are God's People after all. If they want what others have they have only to take it and smile. That's justification enough. @@namibcheetah
Interesting Profile photo and username you got there, I've seen this before somewhere but I don't remember it's origins. Could you just tell me what that is exactly? I'm into archaic stuff
We as South Africans stands with Palestine, they deserve justice just like any human beings on this earth. No country is better than the other regardless of their status or favoritism
Pro-Palestinians like to leave out that he also mentions Israel has a right to exist 🤷♂️... Nelson Mandela was a genuinely smart man, he wouldn't be suckered into blindly following the narrative of one side. Mandela was against the OPPRESSION of the people of Palestine, not against themilitary victory of the Israeli forces against several Arab nations. People keep acting like Palestine would've been magically born out of the Arab invasion, I have my doubts. I would've probably resembled the Scramble of Africa more than anything, which I can't imagine Mandela was a big fan of.
@@obadiahrichard4605watch the hearing of Israel in international justice of court and be educated. Don’t be stupid. Too much stupid are like an animal.
I haven't commented on the internal affairs of USA and you haven't accused me of offending anybody, but when I don't comment on internal affairs of Cuba and Libya you accuse me that I am offending somebody, you have to be consistent.I don't know if I have paralysed you and the moderator was speechless. That is pure class from Mandela
Pure gold! Mandela peeped Ted Koeppel's true motives which most likely was from a personal standpoint anyway. Left him SPEECHLESS and, from my recollection, that was a very rare occurrence with Ted which makes that moment even more special.💯💯💯
Immediately after that Mandela gave him a truce handshake to assure him that he meant n harm, Nelson Mandela was a true definition of a gentleman, very classy individual.
*"One of the mistakes which some political analysts make it to think that their enemies should be our enemies.... (emphasis added) Our attitude toward any country is determined by the attitude of that country to our struggle.... That is the position."* -Nelson Mandela
As a Muslim this opened my eyes. What an amazing man Mandela was. Today his message of wholeheartedly rejecting apartheid rings true still. The Palestinian people need us, as do areas within Africa such as Sudan and Congo.
Alhumdulilah. And in this clip you will see that Surah Kafirun has proven itself. The Jewish ppl have a problem with Mandela for associating with ppl that they disagree with. And one by one, they try to drive the point home to convince Mandela that what he believes in is not only wrong but "immoral" from their perspective. Hence Surah Kafirun says: Say, O Prophet, " Oh you disbelievers, I do not worship what you worship Nor do you worship what I worship I will never worship what you worship Nor will you worship what I worship You have you way, and I have my way. Surah Baqarah Never will the Jews and the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion. Say, Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the only guidance. If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you will have no friend for you against Allah, nor a helper. This does not only pertain to religion but any subject that interests them. And we know that Allah manifests any and all things in due time. And this applies to yesterday, today, forever and always.
The coldest line of the whole interview-notwithstanding that the entire interview was 🔥fire - was when Mandela said, “I don’t know if I paralyzed you!” Damn, that was Cold 🥶!! Love it! Mandela was speaking truth to power during the whole interview ❤
So let me get this right. They expected that after 27 years of imprisonment they thought that they were going to oppress him by forcing him to agree with their oppressive conduct.
@@stephenwalters8006 Maybe to white South Africans who still to this day need to justify the killings and oppression of blacks for centuries. How are you, not the biggest terrorist for coming to a continent on a boat not only to enslave and steal but to kill as well. Be thankful that Mandela is no Mugabe. Anyone who stands between your privilege to steal without a course is a terrorist.
This is the first and only interview of Mr. Nelson Mandela I have heard. Yes you are called Gandhi of South Africa and you have proved it by your clear view on every question asked irrespective of who is asking questions and where. Hats off to you Sir. Real leaders are born in centuries and you are one Sir

There were no Palestinians in Israel 200 years ago; Arabs began to appear in Israel after Zionist Jews began to settle there. Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol - 1848. From a letter to Zhukovsky (02/28/1850), in which Gogol describes his impressions of his pilgrimage to Palestine: Noting that in ancient times it was “possibly” a flourishing country, Gogol writes: “but now, when it is rare, rare to see five or six olive trees along the entire slope of the mountain, the color of their land is as grayish and dusty as the most the rocks of the mountains, when only a thin layer of moss and patchy patches of grass turn green in the middle of this naked, uneven field of stones, and after some five or six hours of travel you come across an Arab’s hut somewhere stuck to the mountain, more like a clay pot, a stove , an animal burrow than a human dwelling - how can you recognize the land of milk and honey in such a place? Imagine, in the midst of such desolation, Jerusalem, Bethlehem and all the eastern cities, looking like randomly stacked piles of stones and bricks; imagine the Jordan, skinny in the middle of the naked mountainous surroundings, here and there overshadowed by small willow bushes; imagine in the midst of such desolation at the feet of Jerusalem the valley of Jehoshaphat with several stones and grottoes, as if the tombs of the kings of Judah.” “Really, I don’t know what I can tell you about Palestine that would lead you to beneficial thoughts and encourage you to take up your pen and your poem with inspiration.” Mark Twain - 1867. "Simps Abroad" Palestine can rightfully be considered a queen among lands whose very appearance causes despondency. Its mountains are barren and ugly, their colors are dull. The valleys are unsightly deserts with stunted vegetation, which emanates melancholy and squalor. The Dead Sea and the Sea of Galilee sleepily numb among the deserted mountains and plains, where there is nothing to rest the eye on - there is nothing bright or striking here, there are no gentle landscapes dormant in a purple haze or dotted with the shadows of clouds floating in the sky. All cutting outlines, all lines are clear; there is no perspective here - in the distance everything is just as devoid of charm as up close. A joyless, gloomy and mournful land. However, some of its shreds and shreds must be beautiful in the bloom of spring - all the more beautiful since they are surrounded on all sides by a bare desert, which has no end or edge. I would very much like to see the banks of the Jordan in the spring, and Shechem too, and Ezdrilon, and Aijalon, and the shores of the Sea of Galilee - but even in the spring they would all seem like just toy gardens, planted far from each other in the endless desert. Palestine is a deserted and unsightly land... Palestine no longer belongs to our everyday life; prosaic world. It is given over to poetry and legends - it is a land of dreams
@@windwind853 Никакого ввода войск ЦАХАЛа в Газу не будет пока мирное население Газы не йдет из Северной части в Южную или в Египет . Все эти разговоры что плохая погода это все брехня погода прекрасная . Вот разбомбили больницу в Газе и уже весь мир против Израиля и хотя это сделал и не Израиль но вину возложили на Израиль а в Газе таких сюрпризов для ЦАХАЛа приготовленны тысячи так что пока там мирные жители никакой наземной операции не будет а в Газе полно мирных жителей так что пока мирные жители не ушли погода всегда будет плохая . На самом деле сейчас Израилю уже выгодно чтобы Хизболла вступила в войну тогда в войну вступит и Америка и у Израиля будут развязанны руки это значит что Израиль уничтожит Хизболлу и Хамас без оглядки на потери мирного населения так как в самом Израиле потери среди мирного населения и ЦАХАЛа будут исчисляться десятками тысячь а рузрушения будут поистинне огромны . Но зато Израиль сможет полностью уничтожить и Хизболлу и Хамас а после войны в Газу войдут миротворцы из Арабских стран и Газа станет частью Египта или всего арабского мира и это будет настояший мир
@@СергейВампир-л6в And who were they to say what land should belong to which people? They describe it as a wasteland nearly uninhabited and that was simply not true. Plenty of photos from back then of thriving communities. A desert? Well, duh!! Do they think the Hebrews wandered in lush fields for forty years??!
My deepest respect to Mr Mandela with elegance and straight talk never bent his beliefs remember in Ireland as a teenager when he was on telly talking everyone would sit with open hearts and minds to hear him speak. Rest In Peace ❤ from Eire
The powerful words of Sir Nelson Mandela strike right through the hearts of the audience. His facial expressions and gestures signifies composure and wisdom.
And if you really notice his features he is timeless you can see his blood mixed with the first people of the African continent direct resemblance to the San and Khio khion I Kid yourl not and I got a super strong feeling that he is a true Sage he attracted only the truth and real to his personality
Sir? A title given by those who had called him terrorist and left him languishing behind bars for 27 years. He should have refused the title. Unfortunately, he forgave his oppressors.
Thank you for sharing this. I don't really believe in making idols out of other humans, but... what a man. What courage, what vision, what resolve, what wisdom. Bought at a terrible price no doubt,but we were so fortunate to live in his time.
+abood muslih It's called compromising..... it's what any great leader does. If you can't change on anything and afraid of change, you most likely are a dictator....
As a proud South African with muslim heritage I am blessed to have shook this great man's hand when he visited my neighborhood of Mitchell's Plain in Cape Town years back, this interview actually brought me to tears as it reminded me of the amazing human being he was. Never will there ever be a greater president than him .. Hamba Kahle Tata Madiba
@n n oh look, the edgy racist. do have to go out of your way to make yourself look stupid and embarrass yourself like this? you must be some crazy white guy, making all your people look bad.
You truly are a lucky person! My mum took me to an exhibition in London about Nelsinho Mandela and the life he led was honestly beautiful. He suffered so much, and yet it changed the lives of so many.
He was great, that's unquestionable but what do you have at your disposal to believe that there will never be a greater president going foward? and How do you define a great president?
Tata. We are still following your example as your children in South Africa. Our stance hasn't changed and we are still in solidarity with our comrades in Palestine.
Mandela said what he want and what he thought not what the Americans wanted him to say. He spent years of his age in prison because he opposed racism and discrimination and he struggled till he won of course the winner was the whole society of Africa but Mandela was the iconic leader of the struggle and for this the whole world still remember him while those leaders who lay down and did as USA wanted are either forgotten or mentioned in the negative way Africa is proud of Mandela
Your children made you pride Nelson Mandela, they brought Israel to Court, they stood alone to face the Zionist world, the whole world run by Zionists, and alone they made it, my eyes are full of tears, million trillion zillion thank you Mandela and South Africa, love from Syria
Watching with nothing but love from Canada. 👏👏👏👏❤️ I’m sorry our leaders and government are failing to represent our people. We are fighting here to push our country to the right side of history in this. Wishing you all strength.
The real lesson here is that once you find ways to excuse savage terrorism in your own country, you can excuse it in other countries too, and receive standing ovations from other would-be terrorists. Having a conscience is very inconvenient to a terrorist and is the first thing they dispense with. This is the reason we now live in a world where free speech is openly vilified and barbarism is celebrated. Marx would be impressed that there are today so many cowards willing to follow his despicable doctrine like obedient little Oompa Loompas.
The great illusion of a great leader, the deceiver who spoke so well yet was responsible for more deaths in SA than any time in history. Just do some research on who financed him and his 'rise' to so-called power. We should not take sides with anyone who promotes war or who murders innocent people. Wake up people, dont be dribbled. All the world is a stage, nobody rises to power without being put there for a purpose. He was no leader, just a pawn.
This kind of moral consistency and fortitude is lacking in today's leaders who are more concerned about being politically correct rather than moral consistency and fortitude. They tell people what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear. Mandela is a great man. That's why he is respected worldwide and his legacy is alive forever.
Omg!! No wonder why I always loved him! There will never be another Nelson Mandela!! I adored him. There is no nonsense about him. Not only was he a brilliant man but with an genuine heart and a great soul!! You’re missed!!!❤🙏🏼

“For anybody which changes his principles depending on whom he’s dealing, that is not a man who can lead a nation.” - Nelson Mandela it gave goose bump... Salute to him
His leadership in the world has been missed greatly! He was always so calm, collective and spoke the truth no matter whether it was popular or not. He truly was one the most important voices of the 21st centuries and the this world needs more warriors such this great leader!❤
Nelson Mandela was very well spoken. He said what he MEANT & MEANT WHAT HE SAID. STRAIGHT with NO CHASER and he made 100% SENSE. What a beautiful spirited man!!! ✊🏽 R.I.P. Sir 🕊️🕊️🕊️😔❤️
A rare moment in a great discussion on principles and policies! President Mandela's remarks in this video are indeed rare footage. Appreciate this sharing in 2024!
Same here in France. “For anybody which changes his principles depending on whom he’s dealing with, that is not a man who can lead a nation.” What do you say, Emmanuel Macron ? What do you say, Olaf Sholz ?
If I assume it's your picture I see here, let me say that if you never heard of these Mandela's thoughts about PLO, it's because, blurred by your incestral inner visions, you were just unable to think the man could speak grand in anyway. The time has passed, erroding worn out beliefs. Not personal, bro.
My friend, Israel is not fighting the good people of Palestine, Israel is fighting against Hamas. Hamas is an enemy of Israel and the Palestinian people, understand the difference. Unfortunately innocent Palestinians have been used as HUMAN SHIELDS by the Hamas.
Very few innocents among white South Afrikaans in those days of revolution. The Apartheid system was a reflection of that fact. Don't bother running interference for that abomination. Says as much about you as it does about those Boers. Ask the English about them...
@@MoAfrika-Afrika Didn't you go to school? Didn't Mandela claim that the best weapon is education. Or, did you get served up Angie's pit toilet edukayshin and pass with 25% with another 5% mahala thrown in to make you look clevah?
South Africa is the greatest country in the world for standing up for the Palestinians. You have my greatest admiration South Africa for your principles and bravery. Love from Malaysia...
I loved that man. I remember that town hall interview as is it is just happening. It moved me then as I’m being right now. The day of his first speech after his liberation was one of the proudest and exciting message moments of my life. Long live freedom for all!
.... but the black people, slaughter the white people now in South Africa😭to death, most brutal ways. Also rape us women, break into our houses, bind you with cables and take all they want. We are also hijacked by gunpoint, to take our cars... All this started after his ANC govt, came in, as (most corrupt) our leaders. 1st slowly, now in full 'work'. He never said ONE word, when it started. They also stole South Africa bunkrupt and our electricity is gone(daily black outs), our roads full of potholes, only break down what the whites built up, and put buildings, buses, etc on fire. And the world still thinks he was an 'angel'. That's why he loved terrorists, like Jaser Arafat and more.
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too foreverw
Integrity, insight, honesty, humility, clarity of expression, exemplary leadership & principles....Damn I could go on & on about my all time favorite role model! This episode was PRICELESS!! 🙏🙏
A great man who once lived. A politician who spoke from the heart. He was not led or influenced by political ideologies. He stuck to his principles. So proud to have met him. 🙌🙌
What does that mean to me? Weren't our Founding Fathers mostly Freemasons? That doesn't put money into my pocket, or take it out. Your claim is simply irrelevant. All I know is that Mr. Mandela was a freedom fighter in the true sense of the word. Put his life on the line, and such was his gravitas that the Afrikaans jailed him for almost three decades, but didn't dare to kill him, because they were afraid of the consequences if they did! His moral power forced that system into the dustbin of world history. Who the heck are you to question his heroism. His opinions on others like the PLO, or Libya's Col. Khadafi are his opinions. Libya hasn't been on good shape since we decided to help him into the next world. Just like we messed up Iraq, Iran, and others through our endless meddling. Comes a time when we should encourage dialogue and negotiations, rather than war, death, and overall chaos. Perhaps if you did more listening than scheming, you might understand this point, as our elder Pres. Mandela pointed out. Love that he left Ted Koppel speechless. A true legend and true boss and statesman. We need more of those these years.
+Steve Smith He was a murdering cunt who made lots of money and got a good education in SA... and left SA as violent as ever with race hate against whites and also a son done for rape.
terefe feyssa If course there are good Jews, but it means nothing as it's the bad elite Jews doing the damage and they need to be exposed not protected by political correctness..
MrTunes Batshitting on Mandela because you have a pure hatred for people like the ones he's supporting. You're really a good example of nothing more, all the less.
