See how you gringos are?

"By the 1850s there was increasing pressure to remove the Indians from their ancestral lands. In 1850 the Federal government offered free land to settlers who would open up farms in Oregon. Prior to the passage of the Oregon Donation Land Act of September 27, 1850 (9 Stat. 496) there was no legislation by which settlers could acquire title to their lands. The Donation Land Act was passed by the Congress before treaties had been negotiated providing for extinguishment of Indian title to the land. There was growing conflict between Indians attempting to defend their homes and non-Indians who coveted Indian farms and village sites and who demanded that the Indians be removed. By 1855 lawless frontier elements were advocating extermination of the Indians. Land cession treaties were hurriedly concluded with a view to clearing the legal impediment to white settlement."

Sounds just like Palestine and the Palestinians doesn't it?

The only difference is that the Whites called themselves "Puritans" and the European secular, non-observant "Jews" call themselves "Zionists" or "G-d's Chosen People" reclaiming the "Promised Land".

Do not ask about the Commandments that were part of the
Promise".

Where is the settlement?

There is no settlement, unless you consider a tent a settlement.

It is already valuable, but what is given in return is not so valuable.

"What do you want in return?"

Nothing, and money is not good enough.

"That's not worth anything?"

No hypocrisy involved here.
