http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_National_Congress

During the 1970s and 1980s the ANC leadership in exile under Oliver Tambo made the decision to target Apartheid government leadership, command and control, secret police, and military-industrial complex assets and personnel in decapitation strikes, targeted killings, and guerilla actions such as bomb explosions in facilities frequented by military and government personnel. A number of civilians were also killed in these attacks. Examples of these include the Amanzimtoti bombing[2], the Sterland bomb in Pretoria[3], the Wimpy bomb in Pretoria[4], the Juicy Lucy bomb in Pretoria[3] and the Magoo's bar bombing in Durban.[5] ANC acts of sabotage aimed at government institutions included the bombing of the Johannesburg Magistrates Court, the attack on the Koeberg nuclear power station, the rocket attack on Voortrekkerhoogte in Pretoria, and the 1983 Church Street bombing in Pretoria, which killed 16 and wounded 130.

The ANC was classified as a terrorist [6] organisation by the South African government and by some Western countries including the United States of America and the United Kingdom.

Sounds kind of like... oh, I dunno, a widespread terrorism campaign.

And so, since Palestinians may actually support those who want to fight against the colonial overloards who look at the Pals as second class citizens, they must all be punished for the violence of these few? That's like saying all blacks should have continued to be subject to Jim Crow because of the Black Panthers (which had greater support among the black community than people realize), regardless of whether they actually committed any violence of not.
