Hi Ichy Smith; Re: "If you are in the continental united states the land you are sitting on was stolen. And the inhabitants were put in gulags."

Very true, and the natives did fight back as well as they could. They lost at least partly because they were severely outnumbered, and partly because they didn't have the industry.

The percentage of GDP that the US expended to keep the Indians under control is minuscule compared to the percentage that Israel has expended in failing to keep the Arabs under control. It's a matter of numbers.
