    Native Americans share a legend of how they destroyed the giants that used to inhabit these lands. Some claim they had white skin, red hair and six fingers on each hand. Even during the later 1800s their greeting was a raised, open hand, which was to commemorate that they were the five fingered people, who genocided the six finger people.

    America is not a stolen land, it's a product of what native Americans were doing themselves- fighting for land that wasn't theirs, or maybe it was if might is right- hence the oppressor story being a lie where Western guilt mongers choose to be ignorant. Native Americans once invaded America- not one invasion but many. They fought and murdered other native Americans, so get rid of the drum circle and deal with the present.

    Indians stole land from each other first, after THEY first arrived from across the ocean from Asia; so this land has always been up for grabs! Survival of the fittest – right? FACTS: https://youtube.com/shorts/REaK6KgZfRI?si=Rvh5uKjbsubXfc1l

    This is SO much BS. Look at Native American history pre-Columbus. It was a constant bloodbath. Stronger tribes massacred weaker ones and took their land all the time. Did they even have the wits to come together against the Europeans? No. Europeans have every right to take land from people who only ever respected force of arms and conquest. Europeans won at war, and that is the same justification that the Comanches, or Lakota or any other tribe claimed for taking land from other tribes.

East India wasn't named/colonized till 1947.

    Europeans (English, French,…) stole Indian lands… These same Europeans (including the USA who are Europians) help the Zionists to steal Palestinian lands.
    alas, the Palestinians are not Indians and their struggle against the occupation will continue to the end.

    They left out the Aztecs that lived in North America before the "Native Americans" drove them south of the border.

    I truly enjoyed this scene. Nothing against Indiana specially but the idea that somehow the white man is automatically the bad guy for winning.

    Of course as General Lee said all Abraham Lincoln achieved was making slaves of us all. Idk how I feel about that statement just because it's a matter of perception. In a way he's right, in another way he's wrong. All truths are but half truths I suppose.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
