Still no facts. Just revisionistic theory and conjecture. As far as Muslims go, I’m not surprised you used them in an analogy since the liberals practically french kiss Sharia Law and you are doing your best trying not to be “outed.”

Consider changing your screen name to “Blue State/Red Ink”

Progressive shill alert!

“Still no facts.”

Just because you’re uncomfortable with what happened, you can’t describe the systematic invasion, subjugation and annexation of continental Africa by European countries as anything other than factual.

Whether it was good or bad or they’re better off or not is another question... but the sequence of events, the system of government, and the quasi-slave status of the subjugated people, enshrined in local courts with foreign judges and at sword and gunpoint are not points on which informed people disagree.

Are you suggesting, for example, that locals were permitted to own land in their own countries, such as South Africa? If so, you’re wrong.

In other words, everyone on this thread agrees what the “facts” were. What they mean is open to debate.

“Progressive shill alert!”

Refraining from Invading other countries, ruling them at gunpoint and stealing their resources is the epitome of a conservative foreign policy.

In your seventh grade history book it was called “non-interventionism.” You might want to refresh before you start name calling. You can verify it’s the policy advocated by George Washington while you’re at it.
