Outstanding Jan. A very sad chapter in our history that at least needs to be recognized as it was.

Repetitio est mater studiorum. History has many rhymes.

A deity selects a cultus, gifts land to it,encourages brutal behavior, and might makes right.

Yahweh, children of Jacob,Exodus to PROMISED Land, treachery and slaughter…Deo Gratias.

Jupiter, children of Aeneas, Romulus,Rome conquers mare nostrum etc.,death or forced removal.

God, Christians, Columbus, Isabella, Ferdinand, the Pope,Jesuits. Conquering heroes abound.

Odd that post-Christian times driven by bent tribalism at last let us honor the natural roots.
