Imagine you are His Excellency F. W. de Klerk OMG DMS. In 1990, you set in motion sweeping reforms for South Africa. Where, when, how, who would receive the baton when the Whites eventually had to, at least ostensibly, share power?
The best mole, the best secret co-conspirator is at the top.
Imagine you are James Alfred Joseph (March 12, 1935 – February 17, 2023).

In 1995 Slick Willy appoints you Ambassador for South Africa from the United States. Willy knows the clock is ticking on Apartheid. Where, when, how, remain to be seen.
The last thing White America wants is South African nuclear weapons in the hands of Negroes, Negroes who have suffered horrible inequality for generations because Americans, British and Israelis have been getting rich off Apartheid. An empowered, militant Black South Africa could easily redestablise the fragile racial balance in America. A victorious Black South Africa in the 1990s, could again ignite American race riots as occurred in the 1960s all across America. Worse yet, a Black America armed by a Black South Africa could become a Northern Ireland, where Boston Irish fueled a war against the English.
A docile, cooperative Black South African leader was needed by Tel Aviv, London, Washington, and Pretoria.
In 1995, Robben Island has a long roster of career criminals for justice. The traditional colonial strategy, arguably the only colonial strategy, was and is divide and conquer.
The wise course, the humane one, would be for the White government to approach the wisest, most powerful, thoughtful inmates on Robben, and have them form a group, a committee to transition power. That didn't happen.
One man was chosen. His is the only face on the currency of South Africa today. South Africans today revere him with a respect bordering on deification. Desmond Tutu, a religious leader, is a distant second in the freedom celebrity race. Other than those two, and Rev. Tutu is iffy, most young South Africans today are unable to name, or even recognise the names of their liberators thanks in part to people like Mr. NSA & the F__kbook generation he has cocooned.

Why does one man so completely dominate post-Apartheid South African propaganda, even in death?

My fondness for conspiracy theories borders on addiction. I can see mechanisations, duplicity, false flags, and deceit where 99% see only light and sweetness. My problem with my theories is they make so much sense.
When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Admittedly, many of the 'official' explanations aren't impossible, just very, very implausible. Many more of the official explanations are impossible, and nonsensical. When not ridiculous, the official explanations make extraordinarily less sense. In some cases, the explanations the public believes are undeniably stupid, and will become even more illegitimate as time goes on.
- A Pentagon 'plane crash' with absolutely not one piece of airplane debris
- WTC buildings dropping in their own footprints defying the laws of physics
- a Pearl Harbor stuffed full of more ships than would be safe in peace time, even with no Pacific war looming
are just three examples of the public believing ludicrous explanations.
I am not trying to persuade anyone. Either you wish to open your eyes, or you don't. My part in awakening you is almost inconsequential. I am trying to draw a line, so that future generations will know that not all of us have been deceived. Some day, once enough folks have spoken up, people will wake up, or we'll move forward without them ever really comprehending. Hogs.
I have tremendous respect for Mr. Mandela. Am I trying to suggest he sold out his fellow freedom fighters for a smooth transition? Perhaps. Would the United States have permitted a Black-ruled South Africa without making Mr. Mandela agree to a peace & reconciliation forgiveness scheme that borders on the saintly? I suspect not. Again, some will claim We're being cynical. The same people think America's use of nuclear weapons was not a crime against humanity. History will know which side you are on.
