Mandela dropped from U.S. terrorism watch list

quote:
Nelson Mandela's name has been removed from the U.S. terrorism watch list, enabling the former South African president and Nobel Peace Prize winner to finally travel freely in the U.S.

I guess now that he's turned 90, Uncle Sam feels the "threat" posed by Mandela isn't quite as dire as when he was younger and winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

Makes you wonder about the organizations we're insisting are "terrorists" today.
