The United Nations is once again sticking its unwanted nose into the affairs of American governance and history by suggesting that the United States should return some of the lands back to Native Americans in order to combat discrimination.
James Anaya, is a UN special rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples and making leaps that giving land back with somehow improve poverty issues for the Indian people. He seems to forget that the Tribes in the United States are sovereign and what happens on their reservations many times are based on the laws they create for themselves. Read more on page 2.
the US obtained the land the same way the Indian tribes did so there seems to be no problem here.
Yes we should
Understood now GTFO
We didn’t steal it! People from England did
And were ruled by the king, we won it from them in a war, the natives regularly
Attacked each other and the winners took
Slaves, this went on far before the English
Took their land, they were slave holders
Before the British inhabitants bought slaves, it’s never as simple as it looks.
more bull-c**p
I don’t think they had a deed for it. They just came in and said mine. So the next people came in and said mine. The people today paid for their land and did not just put up a tent and stake claim.
Remove the UN from the US and the US from the UN.
It wasn’t stolen it was conquered
None of their business, but I think some of the land was given back to them, but probably need to give more. But, again that’s America’s business and not the UN. We need to get out of the UN, PLEASE
What difference does it make shes dead!
