Reagan and Thatcher was supporting Apartheit. Olof Palme was the first to aid ANC. Many western powers followed him. He was the great icebreaker.

You are going to heaven i live that her but she was wrong here same with reagan. Olof palme freakin more important than churchill

[@raymondmainamugure204]

More scholarly work should be done on the importance of this slain martyr in the fight against Apartheid in South Africa. It is countries such as Sweden that keept the ANC alive through their consistent and steadfast funding of the exiled movement. Rest in peace, Olof palme.

I agree. And thanks.

Yes and now the very masses they promised to uplift are worse of than under apartheid and the middle class who were better off are also worse off. Under apartheid everyone could take trains now there are now trains running. South Africa had infrastructure comparable to any first world country now it is a crumbling 3rd world basket case thanks to socialist communist like Palme. We now have a corrupt incompetent ANC government and the only positive is that they are murdering each other for position. Maybe if Palme had stayed out of our affairs he would be alive today. Personally I wish the same fate on all socialist communists.

When I see this I'm reminded of the South Africa theories regarding his murder. They were maybe not correct but a motive certainly existed. Great peace and justice advocate!

Yeah whatever... What has Sweden done for South Africa since 1985.,.. Haha.. They have their own issues with immigration and dont want to hear anything about "South Africa". Swedes are so pure and innocent and never did anything.
