Default US should return stolen land to Indian tribes, says United Nations - 05-05-2012, 08:25 AM

Does this mean we have to give back Manhattan?

i would think first that all Indians denounce their citizenship--then maybe--maybe they'd have a leg to stand on.

The UN is nothing more than a band of circus clowns. They hate the US and its power. They hate Israel. I think the UN needs to focus on stopping its peacekeepers from raping children and eliminating the massive amounts of corruption found inside their ranks. I for one would not loose a bit of sleep if this US pulled out.

Hey UN.
The Italians want the Roman Empire back. The British want their empire back.
The Spanish want theirs back. Would you like the CSA to be reconstituted?
How about the Mayans and Aztecs? The Inca? Do they not have a case too?
History is full of one civilization absorbing another. It has been that way since dawn of time.
Get over it.

Not really. The British Officers that took this action were born, raised and militarily trained in England. The men that made up the army were all British. The people that were to made up the first Americans nearly twenty years in the future were used primarily as militia.

Yep...anything you can take by force you should get to keep no matter what. That's why I'm buying a gun.

how many times do our fellow posters have to wave their guns in our faces and claim that we are unarmed before we all do this?

sadly, we need to all do this.

If the UN gets it way, the largest contributor of money would not exist then. Then there would be no UN either.

First thing we should give back is the land the UN building sits on. Let them set up shop in France and have the EU support it.
