Well you had the Powhatan Confederacy, the Algonquians, the Haudenosauee, the Pequots, the Narragansett, the Mohegan, the Lenape, the Susquehannock Nation, the Esopus, the Iroquois, the Wabanaki, the Tuscarora, the Yamasee, the confederation of natives under Pontiac, and the Shawnee.

I still wonder how the Plains Indians got around before the Spanish lost a few horses. NA horses became extinct a long time ago.

But Israel has conquered people to expand its borders since it was given to them by conquerors.



I think you mean "Israel expanded its borders after being attacked. Twice. And still pushed everyone else's shite in."

Yes. They were defensive wars that turned into IDF arse kickings, which in turn led to the expansion of Israeli territory.

It's a good thing they didn't have to fight a country that it did attack - the sailors aboard the USS Liberty would probably liked to have known why they were killed.

The Creek nation. The Mohawk confederation. The Cherokee nation. The Sioux nation. The "Indian Nations."

All terms used then and now.

Exactly. They didn't conquer anyone for it.



Do you even 1948 Palestinian Exodus bro? I'll give you a hint, there wasn't an exodus because the Zionist asked them nicely.

You can't really believe the shite you've been spewing?

Have you ever been to an inner city? If you want to talk about drug abuse and depression, that's where you start.

Now be gone you worthless, race baiting troll.

Israel is not some magical state that wins on its own. Israel is just a US proxy, or basically an American state that serves as the canary in the coalmine, so all of their victories are really just US victories over third world nations that happen to surround Israel.
