Israel and the American-Indian question

This past Friday, outgoing State Department spokesman John Kirby said, in answer to a reporter's question, that "we believe [Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria] are corrosive to the cause of peace."

Ironically, just six days later, this upcoming Thanksgiving Day, many Native Americans - formerly known as American Indians - will sadly commemorate the European "settlements" of 400 years ago that ultimately became the United States of America.
