Okay, in your words, what does this mean? It's obvious you think New Mexico was taken illegally from its "native" inhabitants (since the white newcomers were illegal and all)...just as the Arabs claim their "homeland" was taken and "illegally occupied" by the Israelis. Maybe that's not exactly what you had in mind, but your argument is consistent with that of the Arabs. So are you saying NM is illegally occupied or what?
