Well, you hardly ever hear about the hundreds of thousands of cubans and their MiG:s or the covert support from Sweden when there's talk about the fall of south african apartheid either. It usually stops at reminiscing about some non-violent forms of protest and more lacklustre quotes from Mandela, considered a terrorist by the US until 2008.

It's a sensitive topic in the Occident, many powerful people would prefer their friends never face scrutiny or justice due to involvement with those crimes.
