Lying to a Nation over the Death of their Icon? You be the Judge...

Nelson Mandela was treated in April for pneumonia - not just a 'recurring lung infection' this is a killer disease - here is a groomed pic taken 29th April 2013.
Compared to a photo of him with Hilary Clinton taken 8 months earlier in Aug 2012
(refer here)

And then it started all over again in the early hours of 8th June 2013 - when the
whole nation was saddened that Nelson Mandela was back in hospital again. And then
shocked when it was leaked to the Press that this frail elderly man was left in an
ambulance on the side of the road for over 45 minutes in the bitter cold of a Highveld
winter's night.
So what and who stands to gain from this farce and complete disrespect for a revered
statesman?

Mail & Guardian - http://mg.co.za/article/2013-06-22-government-confirms-mandela-ambulance-breakdown

"Doctors attending to Madiba are satisfied that the former president suffered no harm
during this period." Mandela (94) was hospitalised in the early hours of June 8
with a recurring lung infection.
'Unresponsive'
On Friday, United States-based CBS News reported that Mandela's liver and
kidneys were functioning at 50%, and that the ailing former statesman had two
procedures, one to repair a bleeding ulcer and another to insert a tube.

According to the report, Mandela had not opened his eyes in days and was
unresponsive. However, Maharaj said the presidency has been the "source for
authoritative reporting on Mandela's health".

US news channel CNN late on Wednesday night reported that an official "who had
been briefed in detail on [Nelson Mandela's] condition" revealed that the
former president was on life support.
Presidency spokesperson Mac Maharaj would not confirm or deny the report to the
Mail & Guardian.
"I can't comment on that. What I can repeat is that, based on doctor's advice, we have
been informed that Mr Mandela's situation has turned critical, and it remains
critical. And we have explained that we don't go into any of the clinical details," Maharaj
said.
29th June 2013:
Mail & Guardian - http://mg.co.za/article/2013-06-29-obama-to-visit-mandela-family/

The White House has announced that Obama and US first lady Michelle Obama will meet
the family of ailing President Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first democratically elected
head of state.
The Obamas will however not visit the "critical, but stable" Mandela in hospital.
"Out of deference to Nelson Mandela's peace and comfort and the family's wishes,
they will not be visiting the hospital," said the White House in a statement.
Something here does not compute! The 1st US president of colour is not allowed to see
Madiba and have the last iconic photograph taken of the two 'greatest' black men in
the last 50 years of the world's history!! Especially, as the president's office made
sure to take a whole plethora of photographs in April 2013 to assure everyone that he
was still alive.
Also after this, all the world's countries' top statesmen stopped sending messages of
condolences to be proudly published in the South African newspapers...
4th July 2013:
News24 - http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Family-advised-to-turn-off-Mandelas-life-support20130704

Johannesburg - Doctors treating Nelson Mandela said he was in a "permanent

vegetative state" and advised his family to turn off his life support machine,
according to court documents dated 26 June, obtained by AFP Thursday.
"He is in a permanent vegetative state and is assisted in breathing by a life
support machine," said a legal filing related to a family dispute over reburying the
remains of three of Mandela's children.

"The Mandela family have been advised by the medical practitioners that his life support
machine should be switched off.
"Rather than prolonging his suffering, the Mandela family is exploring this option as a
very real probability."
The "Certificate of Urgency" document was obtained from a lawyer representing
Mandela family members, who had successfully sought a court order to return the
disputed children's remains to the Madiba's childhood home, after a grandson had them
moved to his own village.
The document was presented to the Eastern Cape High Court as President Jacob
Zuma reported that Mandela's health had faltered and cancelled a trip to
Mozambique.
The next day Zuma reported that Mandela's condition had "improved during the
course of the night".
"He is much better today than he was when I saw him last night. The medical team
continues to do a sterling job," Zuma said in a statement dated 27 June.

2nd September 2013:
Daily Maverick - http://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2013-09-02-to-houghton-mandela-leaveshospital/#.UqFzquIsZMk

Mac Maharaj in a statement on Sunday.

During his stay in hospital from 8 June 2013, the condition of our former president
vacillated between serious to critical and at times unstable. He has received full
medical support and continues to do so. He has also received visits from family, friends
and colleagues. Despite the difficulties imposed by his various illnesses, he, as
always, displays immense grace and fortitude.
The announcement was surrounded by controversy, as have been so many of the issues
during Mandelas time in hospital as the state tries to control the flow of
information to local and foreign media. The BBC reported the discharge on
Saturday after reportedly speaking to a family member. CNN and Sky News
followed. The presidency has noted incorrect media reports that former president
Nelson Mandela has been discharged from hospital. Madiba is still in hospital in Pretoria,
and remains in a critical but stable condition, responded Maharaj. CNNs sources later
said they had made a mistake.
Since the former president was taken to hospital, there has been little
information on his condition. Maharajs updates have continually referred to his
condition as critical but stable but no doctors have addressed the media and no
detailed information on Mandelas health or treatment has been released. The
state failed even to mention the ambulance taking Mandela to hospital in June broke
down on the side of the road.

It's ludicrous how could CNN make a mistake on one of the most important people in
history?
And what's been going on these past months? The promotion of the icon by a political
party for the electoral registrations, the new Private Information act has conveniently
just been passed, the new Mandela movie has just been released, the new e-Toll system
has just been started, and very interestingly new high court judges for Pretoria &
Johannesburg have just been appointed (Judge Mabel Jansen found that the eToll
"application was not urgent enough. In her judgment, Judge Jansen said amongst others
that there is no harm which cannot be corrected at a later date, Adv. Alberts
says.")
Does cause for pause doesn't it?

Death of Mandela, the Birth of Despair: A South African Trilogy Part I

http://guardianlv.com/2013/07/the-death-of-mandela-the-birth-of-despair-a-south-african-trilogy-part-i/

A Nation Divided Dares to Dream

Added by Graham Noble on July 26, 2013.
Of all the nations in what we know as sub-Saharan Africa, The Republic of South Africa
stood out as a beacon of hope on a ravaged continent. Civil war, genocide, brutality,
gut-wrenching poverty and massive corruption have ripped Africa like a monstrous claw,
gouging parallel trenches of misery as deep as the Rift Valley itself. The Death of
Mandela, the Birth of Despair: A South African Trilogy is the story of how a nation,
divided between white and black; poverty and prosperity; beauty and savagery, came
together under one man Nelson Mandela; the lion; the Father of the Nation and was
then torn apart by scavengers, as the lion lay dying.
Africa for those outsiders who have visited on more than a mere two-week vacation
is a majestic, haunting and truly breathtaking continent; to stand on the plains of Kenya
and stare up at the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, across the border in
Tanzania, is an experience that puts one at peace with the world and makes one wish for
nothing more than simplicity and tranquility both within oneself and throughout the
continent. One can drive at dusk along the dusty, uneven roads of any African village or
town and see the locals in their random mixture of western-style clothing and
traditional garb gathered in groups, walking with friends or heading home with sundry
provisions balanced atop their heads. Often, one will hear bursts of African pop music,
with its up-tempo, hypnotic, repetitive rhythms and cheerful chants; always, one will
smell food being prepared.
The tale of tragedy that is African history was written by white imperialists and black
Africans alike. The British Empire, Germany, France, Portugal, the Netherlands as well
as Arab conquerors and settlers divided the tribal Africans into new nations, in which
they were often forced to live side by side with traditional enemies. Inevitably, this
sowed the seeds of genocide and civil war. The attempt to supplant traditional belief
systems with the organized and alien faiths of Christianity and Islam contributed to the
general unrest.
The Africans, for their part, followed corrupt and greedy African politicians who promised
to lead them out from under the oppression of white imperialism. Those same leaders
betrayed their people at every turn; enriching themselves and raping their countries
natural resources with the same voracity as the white rulers before them. Additionally,
however, they used their power to settle tribal and religious scores; they staffed their

governments and armies with loyal supporters, members of their extended families and
tribal kin. Then they turned on their enemies with a level of savagery that can only be
described as pure, undiluted evil.
Few sub-Saharan nations completely avoided this historical pattern. Yet, at the southern
tip of the continent, two nations emerged as stable and prosperous havens. Those two
nations were ruled by whites. They were called Southern Rhodesia a British colony
later known as the Republic of Rhodesia and the Republic of South Africa. Rhodesia has
its own story: Torn apart by the followers of two power-hungry, black rival politicians;
submerged in the brutal Bush War; betrayed to all intents and purposes by whiteruled South Africa and finally emerging as the wounded, chaotic, pariah state of
Zimbabwe; ruled over, to this day, by Robert Mugabe. Some feel he is a monster. Others
say hes a hero.
South Africa fared better: Although not known to most who are unfamiliar with the
countrys history; South Africa became the destination of choice for black Africans
looking to migrate away from the turmoil and crushing poverty of other central and
southern African countries. During the Apartheid years, South Africa excluded Blacks
from political power and forbade them from sharing facilities reserved for whites. The
pain of being disenfranchised in this way is reflected in hundreds of books and papers
about Apartheid, most of which describe the torment of racial inequality.
Many South Africans who were not white were virtually imprisoned in the overcrowded
and, largely, lawless townships, where dwellings were constructed of virtually any
material that could be obtained. Those that had work were domestic servants,
gardeners, servers or laborers.
It was amid this squalor and hopelessness that a political activist movement began
planting the seeds of hope, but watering those seeds with the same acid that many
others, across the continent, had used before. This movement was the African National
Congress, or ANC. Such a movement needs a sympathetic face; a figure who does not
openly deal in political extremism and ideological prosthelytizing, but who speaks of
peace and hope and humanity; a figure who yearns for freedom and justice, rather than
grasps for power and control. Although the ANC had a number of prominent activists, it
eventually found the face and the character it needed in one Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela.
After nearly three decades in Prison, Mandela emerged as the ANCs leader and, after a
time, President of a new South Africa. Apartheid was cast aside and a nation that could
so easily have spiraled into civil war, wholesale racial slaughter and political anarchy
dared to dream of reconciliation, prosperity and equality.
The purpose of this article, and the two that will follow in a series entitled The Death of
Mandela, the Birth of Despair: A South African Trilogy - is to expose the extreme greed
and corruption of the Mandela family as he is imprisoned once again, this time in a
Pretoria hospital. The greed that springs forth from his family sits in direct opposition to
everything he, Mandela, did while he was alive. There are some who consider him a
terrorist because he sought to overthrow his countrys government, but most of the
world views him as a supreme hero. These articles will tell the story of how South Africa
journeyed from the new hope and aspirations that came with Mandelas ascendency to
national leadership to the corruption, mistrust, betrayal and looming chaos that followed
his retirement from power, his failing health and eventual demise, and how that
corruption is taking place at the hands of those closest to him- his family. The Las Vegas
Guardian Express has compiled this tale with the hard work and dedication of a team of
writers, reporters and unique sources whos credibility is beyond question. What this
trilogy will reveal is a true account of turmoil and deceit within the South African political
system and amongst various Mandela family-members; daughters and sons who should
be by his side in his last moments, but who, instead, are concerned only with their own
happiness.

Nelson Mandela Dies, Greed Lives On [Video] Update!

http://guardianlv.com/2013/08/nelson-mandela-dies-greed-lives-on-video/

A South African Trilogy Part II: Ultimately, Everything Revolves Around Money
Added by Graham Noble on August 14, 2013.
As Nelson Mandela is moved from his death bed in a Pretoria hospital to his South
African home, greed lives on and the jackals gather to feast off the spoils of a celebrated
life. Speculation about his health continues. Although already declared brain-dead a
fact revealed in court and corroborated by a Guardian Express source he remains,
apparently, connected to four life support machines as he is sent home under cover. In
the meantime, many are attempting to piece together the motivations and mindsets of
his children and grandchildren. Simultaneously, those descendants have been busy
waging numerous court battles and attempting to gain control over Mandelas trust
account, which the Guardian Express has discovered is worth over 120 million South
African Rand.
Mandela, even in death, is transported without a camera in sight, still believed to be
attached to machines. There is a certain sad irony to the fact that the man who spent
almost three decades in jail and emerged to become the Father of the Nation, to lead
South Africans out from under the bondage of apartheid, is now, once again, imprisoned,
this time inside his own body.
To fully unravel the mystery of what is really going on within the Mandela family, it is
critical to understand the culture and environment in which Mandelas children and
grandchildren were raised. South Africa, many citizens claim, is a nation descending ever
further into the worship of the almighty dollar, the deep and abiding love of greasy
palms, and the unquenchable desire for more. In short, South Africa is a nation of
unadulterated greed. The ruling African National Congress (ANC) is deeply mired in this
culture of corruption, to the point where even prominent party members are becoming
disillusioned with the movement and the ideals for which it was supposed to stand.
King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo, head of the Tembu Royal House and Nelson Mandelas
cousin, announced in June that the ANC had lost its way and had pushed corrupt leaders
to the top. He signaled his intention to leave the movement and join the opposition
party.
The rot has already set in and spread to every organ of authority: Imagine, for a
moment, getting pulled over by a police officer in the United States for a broken
headlight. Imagine that officer walking up to the car and saying you have a headlight
out. What do you think we should do about that? As he asks the question, he holds out
his hand, making it very clear that if his palm is greased correctly, he will silently get
back into his vehicle and go away; the entire incident forgotten. It is almost unthinkable
in the US, but in South Africa, it is an accepted part of the culture.
Corruption is so rampant that the governments Finance Minister, Pravin Gordhan, freely
admits it. There is no point in pointing fingers. [Corruption] is becoming a cultural
problem in South Africa, he said at a recent press conference. We need to fight the
culture of corruption. A culture of easy money making and not having to think hard,
work hard, be clever and find an innovative way of making money.
Other South African experts feel that the unstructured nature of legal and government
institutions is what gave rise to the money-grabbing mindset of many South Africans,

especially those in power. Dr. Elisabeth Grobler explains that it is caused by the ease
with which it is committed due to the lack of sanction and lack of adequate institutions to
deal with the investigation and conviction of this phenomenon.
Certainly, police officers and other elected officials enjoy the green palms provided to
them by citizens looking for a quick fix to any legal problems, but elected officials are
perceived to be the worst offenders when it comes to outright greed. The atmosphere
among South Africans is one of gloom as many citizens feel the people in power do not
care about bettering the country, but are only concerned with their own personal wealth.
The Secretary General of the ANC, Gwede Mantashe, stated earlier this year that the
ANCs insatiable lust for money has harmed their cause. Money has bedeviled our
movement, he said. It is messing up our movement because comrades have a
tendency to create space for themselves to accumulate wealth.
Many different activist groups and factions have sprung up to combat what many feel is
destructive avarice. Blogger Keith Somerville notes that those who are in positions of
power have now turned to draining the coffers of the organizations that put them into
those positions in the first place:
Senior politicians who had fought their way to prominence as union leaders and
opponents of apartheid are seen to be reaping the benefits of investments in mining and
of Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) Somerville writes, They have become
increasingly distant from those whose support made them national leaders. Every
newspaper I read told this story and it was reflected in a general atmosphere of gloom,
brooding resentment and a certain amount of fearThere is a feeling that change,
perhaps with much violence, is imminent.
The fear Somerville speaks of is palpable to those traveling in South Africa. It permeates
hushed conversations. It hangs in the atmosphere like a trembling sword of Damocles.
Everyone wonders when that sword is going to drop. People talk of impending
destabilization and possible violent outbreaks among different factions who may be
secretly vying for power. And the root of it all returns, invariably, to money. The
Guardian Express has obtained exclusive audio of a recorded telephone conversation in
which an officer of the South African Defense Force tells of plans to drive migrants from
the country in preparation for widespread violence and, essentially, genocide.
This audio will be released with the third article in this trilogy, after the Guardian Express
has taken steps to ensure that the identities of its sources for their own safety are
not revealed.
That South Africa is deeply entrenched in greed and corruption is no secret, but while
Mandela himself amassed a great fortune while he was the president, he did so, by all
accounts, legitimately, with his legacy his descendants in mind. He was known for
being an outstanding earner. The British newspaper The Guardian reports that a
seasoned journalist who had been following Mandela for many years said I know
Mandela never had a hard time asking for money. He was known as the African National
Congresss greatest fundraiser.
Mandela was rich, and he had been dedicated to ensuring that the funds he amassed
stretch to benefit a long line of kin. His current descendants, however, dont appear to
have the same altruistic leanings, specifically his daughters and granddaughters. They
want to remove the current trustees who are sworn to make sure the money lasts for
generations and appoint themselves as the managers of the money; a move which Mr.
Mandela vetoed just before he became critically ill.
Many feel that the culture of greed that permeates South Africa did not skip past the
Mandela descendants. They have been accused of outright greed on many occasions by

private citizens and officials alike. The question is, how far does greed extend, and what
actions would members of the Mandela family take to ensure their own personal wealth?
Makaziwe, Mandelas eldest daughter, owns a mansion in Johannesburg that is worth an
estimated $1.36 million, according to South African newspaper the Star. She and other
family members run a number of ventures that cash in on the famous name; there is a
reality show, a restaurant, a clothing label and even a House of Mandela wine.
Despite their formidable collective wealth, the Mandelas appear willing to take what they
can get for free; when family members took legal action against Mandla Mandela, the
patriarchs grandson, over the relocation of the bones of three of Mandelas children,
they applied for and received free legal aid that is intended for poor South Africans.
The jackals gather around Nelson Mandela, who, it seems, is being kept alive because a
dead man cannot be sued for control of his trust fund.
According to the same Guardian Express source, the Mandela family has sold the rights
to coverage of Mandelas funeral to CNN, for 25 million; it should be noted that the
currency denomination was not disclosed. CNN, in turn, sold broadcasting rights to the
South African Broadcasting Company (SABC) for three or five million US dollars.
Sinister developments are revealing themselves in South Africa; the details of which will
be expanded upon in the upcoming third article in this series. Nelson Mandela dies and
then is kept, technically, alive by virtue of being connected to machines. Greed needs no
life support device, however; it lives on in South Africa. The scavengers gather to
capitalize on Mandelas death and his legacy; the ruling ANC struggles with internal
divisions. All this, while the country mired in crime and corruption lurches toward a
complete meltdown.

cover-up, whose motives will be revealed in Part III of this Trilogy. The smoking gun

Mandela: Reporting His Death and the Search for the Truth

http://guardianlv.com/2013/10/mandela-reporting-his-death-and-the-search-for-the-truth/

Added by Graham Noble on October 5, 2013.

The Las Vegas Guardian Express began reporting Nelson Mandelas death June 26 and
our search for the truth began immediately; not the truth of whether or not the former
South African President was dead, for, of that report, we were already certain, but the
truth behind why his death was being covered up. That search continues, but nothing we
have uncovered leads us to suspect that Madiba still lives.

The timeline of how and why we reported the event has been recounted in several
articles in this publication. In short; a text message was received by one of our South
African correspondents, Laura Oneale, stating that Mandela had just died. According to
the message, sent by an employee of the South African Broadcasting Company (SABC),
the anti-Apartheid crusader had passed away sometime late in the day of June 25.
During a hastily convened editorial meeting, it was decided that a select team of
reporters and editors would begin to search for further information and work on one or
more stories, reporting the mans death and recounting his life.
In truth, the team was not completely of one mind, regarding how quickly we should
release the news; erroneous media reports of Mandelas death had been published in the
past, followed by hasty retractions and apologies. Nevertheless, our source was
exceptionally well-placed and there was no reason whatsoever to believe that this source
would have even considered providing us with this information without being absolutely
certain; the repercussions, after all, would have been too enormous. Within hours,
therefore, we had published two articles announcing that Nelson Mandela had died.
Admittedly, we began second-guessing ourselves but came to the decision that to retract
when we had found no evidence that Mandela was still alive ran counter to both our
commitment to journalistic integrity and to our self-appointed mission of speaking the
truth, no matter how unpleasant, unwanted or politically incorrect.
Having determined that our information was correct, we nevertheless embarked upon a
search for the truth behind the cover-up of Mandelas death. Our founder and publisher,
DiMarkco Chandler, made the decision to send one of our top writer/editors to South
Africa on a fact-finding mission. UK-Based Michael Smith travelled to South Africa on
July 25 and, together with Laura Oneale, met with our original source and others in an
attempt to piece together what was happening and why Madibas passing was being kept
a secret. He returned with intriguing leads and an audio recording of a telephone
conversation between a government security contractor and an officer of the South
African Defense Force (SADF). Part of this audio was published here. The one statement
in this recording which took us by surprise was the SADF officers assertion that Mandela
had actually passed away on June 11; according to this source, Mandela had suffered
total organ failure and was pronounced brain-dead this came, apparently, from the
chief doctor at the Pretoria hospital to which Mandela had been admitted June 8, to be
treated for a recurring lung infection.
In the meantime, back in the United States, the Las Vegas Guardian Express website
had been subjected to more than one cyber-attack. According to our IT expert, the
Denial of Service attack which twice took down the site had almost certainly
originated in South Africa. This merely confirmed our suspicions that we were onto a
story that many did not want told. It is only reasonable to assume that, had Nelson
Mandela still been alive, our publication would have quickly found itself the recipient of a
legal cease and desist order almost certainly followed by a lawsuit since, by this
time, we had published additional articles that all contained the assertion that the South
African icon was no longer with us. Rather than demand a retraction and apology,
however, the South African authorities, it seems, attempted to prevent anyone from
reading our reports. These incidents merely furthered our resolve; clearly, there was
something to hide.
As we began to look into the activities of the Mandela family particularly, their
attempts to gain control of Madibas ZAR127 million (approximately $12.5 million) trust
we realized that his death may not have been announced because a dead man cant be
sued for his money. Our audio tape appeared to confirm this. Current South African
President Jacob Zuma continued to put out statements that Mandela was critical, but
stable. Even after it was revealed, by court documents, that Mandelas doctors had
declared him brain-dead and had advised the family to authorize the turning off of the
life support machines, Zuma issued a statement denying this. It is very interesting to
note that the doctors themselves made no statement; they were not allowed to speak

with the media, in fact. Zuma said that the doctors denied saying Mandela was braindead. The worlds media reported this as the doctors themselves denying that they had
made the prognosis, which was not actually true.
As the weeks went by, no-one other than Zuma and the Mandela family had access to
the former leader. Even US President Barack Obama had not been able to see Mandela
when he visited the country. Had Mandela still been responsive at that time, as family
members had been saying, it is almost certain that the leader of the most powerful
nation on Earth would have been granted an audience however brief.
The Las Vegas Guardian Express became the target of many critics. Although our articles
drew many comments from ordinary South Africans who obviously believed what we
were reporting or were at least prepared to accept that we were probably telling the
truth we received many more from people who were disgusted that we continued to
report Mandelas death. We, however, were on a search for the truth; our detractors, by
contrast, were merely choosing to believe what the South African authorities were
reporting and what was being said in the international media and those media reports
were, themselves, nothing more than reflections of the official statements.
Our publication has been accused of cynically reporting Mandelas death merely to
attract readers and, therefore, financial profit. Such claims are preposterous, since we
had dispatched a senior editor to South Africa at a cost that equaled the revenue being
generated by all of our Mandela articles combined; although the Las Vegas Guardian
Express is a rapidly-rising star in the media universe, we do not yet command the
volume of readership that would have enabled us to garner enormous profits from our
reporting. Our publication is less than two years old and is a platform for citizen
journalism; our decision to report Mandelas passing and maintain our position,
refusing to retract could have destroyed the reputation we are building. In short, it
was a decision that could have snuffed out our fledgling media site. The risk we took
together with the financial expenses we incurred far outweigh any profits we have seen
from our reporting of this story.
Our South African correspondent, Laura Oneale a lady who, clearly, cares deeply about
her country and its future was singled out for victimization in sections of the South
African media. There are, however, no major media outlets in South Africa that report
anything other than that which the authorities approve; South Africa may be,
technically, a Democracy, but it is still ruled by those who are Communists at heart and
exercise total control, where possible. Whilst it would be unfair to say that the South
African media does not dare criticize Zuma or the ruling ANC, their reporting is not
totally independent of official influence.
Following Mandelas discharge from hospital, Oneale became the target of scathing
reports in South African publications; these reports were bordering on libelous and the
publications in question should have been ashamed, particularly since they, themselves,
did not have one shred of evidence that Mandela still lived. They were merely repeating
the official story, that this 95-year-old man who had suffered total organ failure and
was pronounced brain-dead was, more than three months later, still allegedly in
critical, but stable, condition something that defies almost every law of medical
science.
It is, in fact, not entirely beyond the realm of possibility that Mandela was dead and
buried sometime in June, although the Las Vegas Guardian Express does not claim to
have any definite proof of this, beyond small pieces of circumstantial evidence. On June
26 the day that the Las Vegas Guardian Express reported Mandelas passing, the
Mandela family and government officials reportedly gathered in Qunu, Mandelas home.
A new access road to the Mandela house was being hastily constructed and a digger was
working on a grave. It seems beyond doubt that preparations had begun in earnest for
the icons burial, but what actually transpired is not clear. It is worth noting that these

events took place before the conclusion of the Mandela family court battle to relocate the
remains of the deceased Mandela children, so the grave that was being prepared was not
for any of them.
More than three months have now passed since we brought Nelson Mandelas death to
the world. In that time, not one media organization can claim to have irrefutable, firsthand proof that Mandela still lives; neither the Mandela family, nor the South African
government, have provided any proof that he remains a living, functioning human being.
We have never attempted to disrespect Mandelas name or legacy. We recognize his
imperfections and acknowledge that there are those who liked neither the man nor his
ideology. Regardless, we humbly submit that he achieved remarkable things. We have
never presumed to pass judgement upon him, nor blindly worship him. We have merely
reported what no-one else has dared to report: That he has passed away and that his
family and government continue to pretend otherwise, for their own gain.
We, at this point, would still, obviously, be willing to retract our reports; our integrity
means more to our team than suffering the embarrassment of admitting that we were
wrong. That situation, however, will not come to pass. It is time for the South African
government and the living relatives of Nelson Mandela to end this charade and announce
the mans passing. If they will not do that, it is time for them to provide media access to
Mandela. We do not expect the man to suffer the indignity of being surrounded by a
gaggle of reporters and photographers; a short, private audience with a member of our
staff would suffice. No photographs, no questions; merely an opportunity for a trusted
individual to say that they have seen Mandela with their own eyes and that he remains
alive.
Without such a request being granted, we maintain that we reported his death
accurately and we continue to search for the truth.

September 2, 2013 Mandela released from HOSPITAL and moved back to his HOME in
Houghton!! REALLY!!
Mandela was discharged from the Mediclinic Heart Hospital in Pretoria yesterday morning
after spending the last three months there.
Presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj said Mandelas condition remained critical and
at times unstable but his team of doctors was convinced he would receive the same
level of intensive care at his Houghton home in Johannesburg that he received in
Pretoria.

There are many therapies and techniques that may be used by clinicians to achieve the
goal of sustaining life. Some examples include:

Feeding tube
Total parenteral nutrition
Mechanical ventilation
Heart/Lung bypass
Urinary catheterization
Dialysis
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Defibrillation
Artificial pacemaker
Life extension

Now imagine a very frail, elderly, man that has already spent 3 months in hospital on
life support, now being relocated, with his bed, plus all the life support equipment, plus
all the portable battery packs that would be required to keep it all operational for the trip
down the corridor, into the lifts, and out to a waiting ambulance then either into the
ambulance or to plug him into the ambulances equipment WITHOUT losing power to the
equipment. Then the same procedure out of the ambulance plug back into batteries
again without losing power wheel him into the house and then plug him up again.
I DONT THINK SO!!!

OFFICIAL DATE OF DEATH:

5th December 2013!!!
