Yuyutsu, thanks for your reply. I quite agree with you, and notice that very few people use the prior and continuous occupation arguement, so perhaps many think it is weak. I use it to put it into the public domain, and because I imagine that few people know this aspect of the very long history of the Jewish people. Personally I think it is a strong arguement.
And Kartiya Jim, I'm not opposed to a treaty with Australia's real aboriginal people, but they were killed off by the mob that currently call itself Aboriginal. When Australia's current Aboriginal people acknowledge this, we'll all be a little further ahead.
The same is true of the Maori in New Zealand, who marginalised and largely killed off (ie didn't share the land with, conducted raids against, and pushed to the brink of extinction) the Mori Ori who lived in New Zealand when they invaded.

camo ,
I can't agree on your theory about Aboriginal people of lesser blood killing off the full bloods. It didn't happen on any scale at all .

Old tribal rivalries WERE exploited whenever it suited the invaders.

We have seen this in Iraq .

This would have been the modus operandi of the British in New Zealand.

At least they ended with a usefull Treaty in a country where their Naional Anthem at the Rugby is sung in Maori and white Kiwi players do a good job of the Haka!

There is no doubt that squatters encouraged Aboriginal People of a different language group to attack those on the outskirts of their stations as they expanded.

You should remember that most "coloured " Aboriginal People have Full Blood Grand or Great grandparents that were illegally disposessed often in a genocidal fashion .

Survivors were left to their own resources, as long as it didn't involve living off their own tribal land.

This history is there for all to see and is becoming more accessible.

Even the Stolen Generations are finding their tribal and language groups and their full blood relatives . They respect their history.

Many emotional and rewarding reunions are now happening .

Attitudes are moving on at long last .

Muslims cause trouble wherever they are. If they were given Israel the main focal points would be Sudan, the Balkans and Chechnya.

Victimofbigots,
"Muslims cause trouble wherever they are".

Sounds like a bit of the one eye has rubbed off .

Not ALL people are nice ;some races in the past and present have used their financial muscle to bring havoc to peace loving people who just happen to be "sitting" on something of great perceived value - be it land or resources .

Obama lays some of the blame for our present financial mess on greed.

I agree .

Cut the crap. You are saying Africans were all peaceful and there was never any tribal warfare or any horrible things happening before the white man. Get a grip you racist bigot!
