[QUOTE="Jade Margery, post: 58243132, member: 234149"] When I think of the Native American peoples, it leads me directly to our hypocritical support of the creation of Israel after World War II based on the Jewish people wanting their 'holy land' back... and throwing off the people who had been living on it for hundreds of years. If the Jews had a right to take Israel back, the Native Americans should have more than a right to take America back. Although they are given some government subsidies, the fact is that we are still screwing the Native Americans over in new ways even today. Corporations use loopholes in laws or financial bullying to set tribes against each other, buy rights to their land for cheap, or pass legislation limiting their freedoms, such as how many livestock they are allowed to have or where they are allowed to build. And in the end it comes down to the same thing--a whole race of people pushed into too small an area of the least desirable land. [/QUOTE]
