UN: USA should return stolen land to Indian tribes...

So Drudge has the following headline currently posted today on May 5,
2012: UN: USA should return stolen land to Indian tribes...

Okay, I say we start by giving back the land the United Nations is
housed on in the New York City borough of Manhattan -- land which was
"purchased" from Native Americans for $24 of trinkets since we all know
those "evil" Anglo-Christian traders from Holland in reality must have
"tricked" the Indians into accepting such a shoddy offer...

And after that, the UN can give back to the American people all the
national parks and land American presidents have signed over to it via
executive orders as collateral for some supposed "national debt" that is
in reality no debt of the American people to begin with...

lmao... soon we see a exodus out

http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/05/05/11551618-un-official-us-must-return-control-of-sacred-lands-to-native-americans?lite

where will this all end... the question... of the topic... No a fly zone
above the USA???... to protect the Native Indians from Obamadaffi

Staying Morally Superior to Sharks

A young officer of Her Majesty's Navy fell overboard and was attacked
by a shark. He tried to outswim it, which, as you understand, was a
pretty hopeless task. Fortunately, he was saved at the last possible
moment, and while he was standing, all wet, on deck and the
disappointed shark was still snapping its terrible jaws in the air,
one of the sailors asked him, "Lieutenant, you have your dagger on you.
Why didn't you try to fight the shark off?" The lieutenant's response
was, "You don't cut fish with a knife."

How Did Ayn Rand's 'Atlas Shrugged'
Predict an America Spinning Out of Control?


How could she have painted villains who seem ripped from today’s
headlines?

There’s Wesley Mouch, who in the face of failed government programs
screams like Rep. Barney Frank (D) of Massachusetts for wider powers.

There’s Eugene Lawson, “the banker with a heart,” who like former Treasury
Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is ever
ready with a bailout.

There’s Mr. Thompson, who like President Obama seeks to rally the country
behind pious platitudes.

There’s Orren Boyle, who like President Bush says that we must abandon
free-market principles to save the free market.

Actually, the Dutch got ripped off. The Native Americans who "sold"
them Manhattan didn't own it.

Indian nations have no concept of ownership,
and as a consequence only a very loose notion of property rights.

Property Rights are one's ONLY guarentor of Dissent.
It is the notion of Individual Right and the
Right to Dissent which is at issue whenever ceding
the unearned to the undeserving is brought up.


The LIBs ceaseless quest for the unearned remains forever ceaseless
because the Value illicitly obtained retains no Value.


Why shouldn't SOME be sacrificed that others may live?
Why shouldn't the Will of the People be Pre-eminent,
and in evidence everywhere yet existant in no one?

Why shouldn't the very same Politico's who have reduced the world
to the state that it is, sit on top calling the shots?

A world not much better than a log tumbling end over end down
the raging rapids, its people reduced to little more than ants
clinging to it for their very lives as absolute nuckleheaded
LIBs like OBAMA proclaim themselves:Kaptain!

Nope. What they had was communal or tribal property rights and they were
willing to sell property to Europeans at the beginning, to their great
harm.

The injuns were wasting the land.
If we had given them lots of money, they would have spent
it on firewater anyway. Now they have casinos.

It's a win-win.

There is NO CONFLICT among those who do not desire the unearned.
Those who do are herded into prisons where they have no rights whatsoever.

Neighborhood Network Watch Job Opportunities

FAQ.
Q: If the Neighborhood Network Watch is not a government agency
then what is it?

A: The Neighborhood Network Watch is a community based and staffed
organization much liken to a Neighborhood Watch, but for network
security.

Q: What does the Neighborhood Network Watch do?

A: The Neighborhood Network Watch, goes out into the community to
identify publicly used networks and to collect samples of network
traffic or data that is being transmitted and received over the
network. This data is then analyzed to see if it contains any
terrorist related or threatening network traffic that maybe
endangering both the community and our nation.

Q: Isn’t this invading my privacy?

A: In many ways yes, but in a post 9-11 world the government and most
communities across the United States, believe that these sorts of
measures are necessary to prevent our nation from being attacked
by ruthless terrorists. In fact privacy is a relative term with a
definition that is constantly being redefined. Especially so in
the highly technologically mediated world we live in today.

Where I live we did give their lands back.


"This is a proud moment for the Seminole Tribe
of Florida and for all Indian tribes," said Mitchell
Cypress, chairman of the Tribal Council.

"Our ancestors sold Manhattan for trinkets," Osceola said.
"Now, with the acquisition of the Hard Rock Cafe, we're
going to buy Manhattan back one hamburger at a time."

Osceola spoke at a news conference announcing the deal
with British company Rank Group PLC for Hard Rock's
casinos, restaurants, hotels...

"U.S. tribes now have more than $22 billion in annual
revenues from gambling, according to government figures.

"In 2003, one year before the Seminole Hard Rock opened
in Hollywood, each member made $36,000 per year, and
that jumped to about $50,000 in late 2004, according to
tribal members.

The tribe's expanding finances and gambling influence has
translated into greater wealth for its nearly 3,300 members.
Each Seminole, children and adults alike, receives a monthly
dividend check of $7,000, or $84,000 annually, as his or
her share of money made from the casinos.

In addition to its two Seminole Hard Rock hotels and casinos,
the Seminole Tribe owns and operates five other casinos in
Florida. More than 90 percent of the tribe's budget now
comes from gambling.

In Florida alone, the Seminoles' seven casinos and the one
Miccosukee casino generated an estimated $1.3 billion in
revenue last year.

With all the gambling, maybe now they're taking
advantage of us?

Well, at least those of whom advantage is being taken volunteer for it.

The USA has strange laws. But nations are not owners of the land. The
USA is a piece of the surface of the Earth, surrounded by a border. This
piece of land IS the USA. So the USA cannot buy or sell a piece of the
nation. Only politicians could sell property of the nation, but not the
nation itself.

All the people living legitimately within this borders are citizens of
the United States, what would include native Americans.

These tribes are often called 'nation', but the term nation refers to
the entire USA. The tribes are owners of some areas. Their land has been
robbed by American (and foreign) solders, companies and individuals.

If there are still tribes, from which land was stolen and the current
owner could be identified, than possibly the owner had to return it. (In
Germany we have 'Verjährung'. This means, that someone has to claim his
rights within one generation - 30 years - or the rights are lost).

Anyhow - the case is between the former and the current owner of a patch
of land. To decide such a case it takes an appropriate law and a court.

The UN is now not the organisation, that makes laws. Laws are made by
the legislative branch of the government. The UN can only make general
statements and demand, that certain subjects have to be solved. But
reverting 18th and 19th century injustice could only be done now, if
current injustice is created.

Usually it is a good idea to settle subjects in a certain limit, what
would be clearly exceeded in this case.

I would guess, the so called Indians are citizens of the USA.

But I'm not sure about this and it would surprise me, if the US found
ways to reject their citizenship.

(Actually these people have nothing to do with India, so 'Indians' is a
VERY silly name.)

But how do you define 'citizen of the USA', if people, that lived in the
USA for millennia would be excluded?
