The point about Mandela is that he is simply a great man, period.
Sad to see that after all these years (and all these dictators....) it is still a sure bet that in almost any case involving the plundering of public funds for glitzy toys for the big chiefs the money trail leads to Switzerland (Jet Aviation for Mbeki's Jet, Trans Air SA in case of Rawling's Gulfstream).
