The two-faced piece of .... but it really is no surprise.
Science flies people to the moon. Religion flies people into buildings.
Politicians will always get bitten on their arrses by their statements until the day they learn to say "sorry I was wrong and now I've changed my mind" realising that such an admission is not a sign of weakness, like the rest of us do as further analysis of anything brings different realisations later on.
I won't hold my breath for politicians to understand this though.

In the interests of accuracy, Cameron himself was not involved in the poster.
He did, however, go on an all-expenses paid junket to apartheid South Africa to 'see for himself'. It was funded by a firm that lobbied on behalf of the apartheid state. Story
And as has already been said, people can change their minds.

Mandela wasn't great he was human. It's all about the individual. If I'd have been born on the Falls Road, Belfast, I'd have been killing British soldiers. If I'd have been born in Fallujah, I'd have beeen killing American soldiers. If anybody comes into the town I live with intent to harm people I love and know, I'll be killing them.

To me, t's simple arithmetic.
The greatness comes in subsequently deciding not to seek retribution once in power, but reconciliation. Many don't or would not.
