Yea, Andy, we have the same in Brazil with the Indian reservations. They’re after more and more land.
I think it’s wrong. Who has the right to decide at what point in history you decide that a certain people owned a certain piece of land. Look at the UK: Picts, Britons, Vikings, Saxons, Romans the French and probably many more owned the islands at one time. Who gets claim then? My origins go back to the Celts, should I be on Princes Street with a placard?
Surely ‘we’ are all Australians or Brazilians whatever the origin and should be treated as such these days. Any other treatment will only fuel racial divisions and hostility.
Perhaps the biggest irony is that these people defending the ‘cause’ of the indians actively promote the causes of ethnic minorities in society in the present day, thus completely contradicting themselves - it’s quite laughable and show themselves up to be nothing but racist.
