Caption Contest: Obama Shakes the Hand of a Castro

Filed under: General — Patterico @ 7:18 am



Obama shakes Raul Castro’s hand, at a memorial service for Nelson Mandela (former president of South Africa and leader of Umkhonto we Sizwe, the violent and terroristic armed wing of the African National Congress):

What did you expect? He has shaken Chavez’s hand and says he wants to visit Tehran.

Your captions below.

P.S. Some have asked: what did Mandela do that was any different from what George Washington did. Charles C. Johnson:

From David Beresford, writing in the Guardian, January 1989:

Some controversy has surrounded Mrs Mandela in recent years. A former social worker and considered a great beauty in her youth, she has shown enormous courage over the years in the face of imprisonment, house arrest and harassment by the South African authorities. More recently, however, she has shown questionable political judgment. In 1986 she embarrassed the anti-apartheid community with the statement in a speech that “we shall liberate this country” with “our boxes of matches and our necklaces” interpreted as an implicit endorsement of the political killings by burning which did enormous damage to the anti-apartheid movement between 1984 and 1987.

But enough about killing innocent people. On with the captions!

He could have. Instead he stood by her and let her be the face of his campaign, thus endorsing her crimes. He only dumped her when he got out and had to actually live with her!

    Milhouse (b95258)

  71. @Milhouse. What I heard was that he divorced her officially in 1994, 4 yrs after his release and that was after separating from her for two yrs since 1992. What would you have done differently if you were in his shoes to your wife of many years and mother of your children? Would there be a part of you that would want to stick with her as much as you could despite the scandals and bad press she had gotten for herself? Never judge a man because you are not wearing his shoes to know wear it pinches. Winnie is solely responsible for the bad choices she made and not Nelson.

    He only dumped her when he got out and had to actually live with her!

    He discovered, on the day he got out, that she had taken a lover. He kept it secret for some time – it became public at the time of their divorce six years later, but he told Nadine Gordiner a few days later. (in the current issue of the New Yorker. She says she has never before told of that.)

    She had expected he wanted to talk with her in connection with her book, “Burger’s Daughter”, or how his life, or his family’s life, was similar or not similar to that.

    The book dealt with revolutionaries’ children and how their lives were affected by their parent’s politics and threats of imprisonment. It had been published in 1979, banned in South Africa but smuggled into Robben Island and he wrote her a letter about the book.

    Nelson is responsible for his decision not to renounce violence as a political tactic, of which his wife was a very big public proponent.

    Those are facts which cannot be denied.

    This was in 1985, when P.W. Botha offered to free him if he unconditionally renounced violence as a political instrument. He made a public reply, red out loud by his daughter at a rally in ahuge stadium in Soweto.

    It went in part: (all this per Nadine Gordinor in the the New Yorker)

    Let him renounce violence. Let him say he will dismantle apartheid. Let him unban the people’s organizaation, the African National Congress…I cannot and will not give any undertaking at a time when I, and you, and the people, are not free.

    Five years later, F.W. De Klerk lifted the ban on the ANC and released the remaining politial prisoners, after secret negotiations held in prison.

  107. DRJ, I think a possible monkey-wrench to Podesta’s apparent line-of-march is to find people/institutions that are in other Circuits, and have them bring suit to enjoin the President’s EO’s, thereby by-passing the hacks he’s putting on the DC Circuit.
    Of course, if the GOP actually can take control of the Senate in ’14, they will be able to follow the leadership of the House in inserting into every possible appropriations bill, language disallowing the Administration any authority to spend funds on those EO’s. Now, the President can veto those bills, and he might prevail on some of them, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to get the funding that he desires.
    I don’t anticipate anymore Continuing Resolutions after there is a GOP Majority in the Senate.
    I see the House sending up budget and appropriation bills for specific Departments/Agencies/Administrations/etc., so that if the President vetoes one bill, it only shuts down that specific portion of the government.
    Personally, I would write the appropriations bill for the Dept of Interior specifically forbidding the National Park Service Police from erecting any BarryCade or restriction of free access to any acreage under their jurisdiction that has been historically open to the public at all times.
    The Power of the Purse can be a formidable weapon if the Congress is so inclined to wield it – and is specific in its intent.
    Who knows, this just could be the trigger for Congress to pull back the tremendous amount of administrative discretion that they have extended to the Apparat, and to either start writing regulations themselves in conjunction with the legislation they pass, or requiring the bureaucracy to submit those regulations for Congressional approval.
    We can only hope.

But like Kevin said, you cannot provide evidence of your claims against Mandela and the choices he had to make. You wanna pin the blame of actions taken by his wife while he was incarcerated on him. All in the aim of giving the dog a bad name in order to kill it. Name calling and generalizations won’t cut it, where’s the beef? You prefer to call the ANC a terrorist group for taking up arms against the evil system that killed and oppressed their people. Yet you won’t renounce the apartheid regime that did more evil against black south Africans. Blue is not red and men don’t walk upside down.

    Emperor – I know your answer. You weaseled out by saying you were not there so you could not answer the question. Let me know if your answer was different.

    I am not saying Mandela was required to renounce violence. I am saying you will not acknowledge that as part of his life up until his release from prison he was part of and supported a very violent movement. Arguing otherwise is denying history, which I guess is what you want to do here. The question of whether he had alternatives is an unprovable hypothetical. By the way, you can go back to the same thread and look up my answer to your question whether I supported the apartheid regime.

    There really is no reason for your childish dishonesty.

    In the year 2000, at a reception at the Unotdd Nations I think Scott Pelley said, President Clinton shook the hand of Fidel Castro.

    But there are no pictures of that. Or at least CBS thought there was no picture.

    The question of whether he had alternatives is an unprovable hypothetical.

    tghe violence only set their cause back – if the cause was getting rid of apartheid.

    It did, however, tend to ensure they were the only well known black oppposition.

    What ended apartheid was the boycotts, plus the elimination of the fear of a black dictatorship of the type there were many in Africa.

  120. I unconditionally renounce violence as a political instrument. I denounce it, also. Just for the record.

    Armed insurrection is not political action. They are two different things. Like apples and horse apples. To say you renounce violence as a political instrument is like saying you renounce bicycles as fishing gear.

    Sammy likely has it right. The boycotts, with the sugarcoating of a political solution, is what brought apartheid down. The ANC stung the Afrikaners in their comfort zone but the boycotts threatened to take them out of it altogether.

    What I wonder, where is Israel getting its plutonium and U-235 to refresh its nukes now? Those things have a limited shelf-life. Is it still getting them from South Africa or are we smuggling them to it again?

  121. Why did Mandela and his group decide to use violence against the “apartness” regime? They saw that non-violent demonstrations were met with violence by the regime resulting in the deaths of black south Africans. You may have your objections about if that was the best ccourse of action at the time, that will be your opinion but for them at that time it was what they had to do. If you read the systematic culture of racism and discrimination which was imposed on black south Africans, stripping them of their nationality as south Africans and relocating them to rural areas and forbidding them from entering the cities. Their lands were seized and they were banned from education, inter racial marriage and used only for cheap menial jobs that kept them subjugated. I don’t know what I would have done given the same circumstances, do you? Apartheid was a policy set up to separate the locals from the white folks and keep them subjugated and inferior. Then you factor in the violence and brutality against peaceful protesters to this draconian system. Someone had to react and that is what Mandela and his group began to do.

    Obama has his own way of grieving. Others cry and look sad Obama takes selfies with friends. Why can’t Michelle see this?

  127. There’s a lot of levity at wakes I go to. People see it as celebrating the deceased’s life. Old people tell each other “Our turn next”, young people are more polite and say “Uncle/Aunt, when your time comes, I’ll put the heaviest rock on your coffin”. Better than using it as a forum for political speeches. Obama was pretty bad with his “what you look like, how you worship, who you love” schtick, but the Sudan guy was way out of line.

  129. “Mr. Obama, I’m with you on all the ‘hope’ talk, but kindly minimize your use of the word ‘change.’ In Cuba, we stopped the official use of the word ‘change‘ around 1960. Comprende ?”

  132. Obama: “Mr. Castro, how did you and Fidel get the website for CastroCare to work ?”

    Castro: “What’s a website ?”
