Simon Mann, a white British mercenary was tried and convicted of trying to overthrow President Obiang of Equatorial Guinea. He was arrested in Zimbabwe with arms and served three years in that country before being extradited to Guinea where he confessed to his crime and was sentenced to 34 years in prison. He was therefore a terrorist equal to Osama Bin Laden. However he was released from prison yesterday after being pardoned by President Obiang in a humanitarian gesture and flew back to Britain. When Bobby Sands and 12 other IRA prisoners fasted to death in a Belfast prison Margaret Thatcher, then Prime Minister of Britain, contemptuously dismissed them as terrorists and not to be negotiated with. When three prisoners committed suicide in Guantanamo the Americans called it an act of propaganda. Yet here is a terrorist who was just as dangerous as the others and he gets to go home for christmas. No doubt the British armtwisted Obiang. We colored people are quick to accuse whites of racism but when we show our inferiority so blatantly the whites are encouraged to think that they can get away with they want. And they always do.
