This is off-topic. Can't you start up a Let's Gas The Jews thread? Or go back to Ask God, or something.

Historic continuity, not racial identity, constitutes the basis for the claim. We are all Americans,although from different backgrounds, right?

Emile, It all comes down to who has the weapons and gets to write history. The United States had an ethnic cleansing campaign against the Native Americans. We called it "Manifest Destiny" and carried it out with guns, forced mass exodus, destruction of villages, rape, and even biological warfare in the form of trying to help spread smallpox, a disease that was rather deadly to Native Americans but somewhat not so hard on people of European descent. Many of our "heros" of that era such as General George C. Custer, were actually guilty of war crimes. We just didn't see it that way at the time... -John
