Did you condemn Slick and Carter for their illegal invasions? If so, produce the posts. Otherwise, you are a hypocrite, proven so by your own lack of words.

The Caucasians "stole" this land from the American Indians. So did the Caucausian Canadians. Those Indians pushed other Indians further south to get that land. The Sea Peoples pushed out numerous other peoples in invasions of their lands thousands of years ago. Shall the victims now start guerilla war against their successors? If the answer is yes we have war to the last man standing. He might as well commit suicide; the species ends with his death. Or maybe there should be a statue of limitations on these claims? Otherwise we have unending war.

Did the Caucasians invade "properly"? The Sea Peoples? Who decides "properly"? A convention of representatives of mostly dictatorial gov'ts such as the UN?

Many NOW call for an invasion of Sudan to stop the Darfur genocide. How, exactly, is this so different than a US invasion of Iraq because its dictator has committed genocide on his own people? Or Turkey for the Armenian genocide? Or Russia for the many crimes of its gov't and in particular its KGB? Exactly who is to carry out your "justice" since all are guilty? And that includes our allies such as Britain and our enemies such as Iran. NOW WHAT? Many of the Arab gov'ts say Darfur is an internal matter to be decided by Sudan and the UN has no legal right to interfere.
