My understanding is that the Dutch were sold Manhattan by the Canarsie tribe, who lived in what is now Brooklyn. The Manhattans summered upstate, and when the Dutch got to the island, the Canarsies canoed over and “sold” the land of their traditional enemy to the Dutch. When the Manhattans returned in the fall and found a Dutch trading post, there was a brief war, causing the Dutch to create a palisade across the bottom of the island - the place now called Wall Street.
So who gets the island?
And speaking as a Jew, this should mean that the Jews get their traditional homeland, too.
I agree with the writer who stated that this is just a way to stir up discontent and disunity for the purpose of allowing the leftist minority to come in and assume power.
Come on, your PC sense is better than that! The Dutch don’t get anything out of this, the Canarsie win.
