Original Note:
The basis for this claim may be a series of attacks carried out in the 80s by a number of independent actors, while Mandela was in prison. The US recanted the claim of Mandela ever being a terrorist, saying they were embarrassed this claim was ever made. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/us-government-considered-nelson-mandela-terrorist-until-2008-flna2d11708787
