Has the U.S. started building settlements on the reservations now? Because it really shouldn't do that.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-15 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
no, just starting wars in the middle east

I don't think we are

but the fact that we're not developing the land that we gave to the Indians because it is incredibly shitty and economically inferior, and instead just letting them exist in a shocking state of poverty, is not exactly a defense of America

Dude, educate yourself. Not all tribes are poor. Some are rolling in cash.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-16 09:24 am (UTC)(link)
So are some Palestinians.

(Anonymous) 2014-05-08 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly. Swimming in aid from the USA when they shouldn't be.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-15 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Aside from the Native American thing, just making colonies in the Middle East now.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-15 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Countries violating one another's sovereignty in the name of security leads to no end of misery, but seeking to replace the civilian population with a different civilian population isn't quite so common. The Native American thing is the comparable one -- a blatant land grab because the grabbers think they have a better right to the land than the people currently living there. The U.S. did it with bonus blatant genocide!

Sometimes I wonder if the U.S. is unwilling to come down hard against settlements because of the entire country being one giant stolen settlement.

Er, because 'building settlements on reservations' is the only human rights crime you can commt? The United States does have a history of committing human rights crimes (one of the reasons it currently refuses to join the international criminal court, actually).

(Anonymous) 2014-04-15 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course it has a history of human rights violations. But the US itself isn't the one criticizing Israel. In fact, the US supports Israel. And generally the people who criticize Israel are happy to criticize the US and any other human rights violators as well. In fact, Israel and the US are similar in the way they describe themselves as being awesome countries for human rights when in fact they are the exact opposite.

but do they boycott the us and protest against celebrities who perform there?
