    Is it any surprise to anyone that Australia refused to sign it ?

    This arrogant action against our own indigenous people endorsed by the vast majority of Australians particularly shows Australia's racist and intolerant reluctance to treat Aborigines as equals this signifies that Aborigines are still to be retained in primitive slavery . There only future for Aboriginals is that there lands will become atomic/chemical waste dumps for the EU and the US . Australians still think that they have a manifest destiny to rob Aborigines whom they know to be weaker than them I call for an International boycott of Australia .

    As a note to the moral corruption of the UN the Declaration of Aboriginal Rights deliberately omitted was the issue of indigenous Palestinians , absolutely disgraceful .

    'Although non-binding and mostly symbolic...'

    why even bother reading it if it had no meaning??

    Huh? I don't think the Palestinians are called "aboriginal", are they?

    Do you even know what the term "aboriginal" even means?

    Well, then I was right ...Palestinians were not from the area where they now claim to live. So ....they are not "aboriginals".

    Really? Wow!

    Ermm ok. So where exactly do you think Palestinians come from Baron?

    Do you think they moved to the region in the last 100 years?

    Apparently the current belief with him and others on this forum was that Palestinians only came into existence post 1967 .

    Whatever name you use there where people (Arabs) living in that area for thousands.

    They are called Palesitnians now but where called other things before and are a mix of alot of different races that lived in the area over the years, such as the caanites ancient hebrews and even crusaders and ofcourse arabs. They are relatively speaking the closest thing to native people of that land that is called Israel/Palestine.

    Then where are they from? Mars?

    They claim to live? Build a time machine and go back to before 1948, and tell me that there isn't a fucking Palestinian living there.


    Anyways, this is such hypocrasy. The US speaks of returning the land and rights of existence, yet it is occupying Native American land! Ha! And they expect others to respect them.

    There has naver been a Nation State called Palestine, It either belonged to the Cannanites, Israel, Rome, The Ottomen Empire, the British Mandate or Israel, but there has never beeen a independent State of Palestine.

    ps: the Indians didn't own the land, they had no concept of land ownership,

    But there was a land, a land with people living on it called Pholesteen (Palestine), and the Palestinians were Arabs. So yes, it is their land.


    But IT'S THEIR FUCKING LAND! What don't you understand? Trying to make excuses? The Natives were on the land first, who cares about who "owns" it officially, it always belongs to them. Give it back to them or else you speak shit.

    The Americans, Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders could never accept aboriginal rights.

    That would mean they had to accept that their country is based on mass genocide; the natives of which are still not considered the same as the invaders.

    Its more convenient when they are just bones like the 400 dead found in New York (half of them children). Build a memorial and forget about it.

    Philistines
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Map of region according to the Bible, showing the location of Philistine land and cities of Gaza, Ashdod, and Ashkelon
    Map of the southern Levant, c.830s BC.
    Kingdom of Judah

    Kingdom of Israel

    Philistine city-states

    Phoenician states

    Kingdom of Ammon

    Kingdom of Edom

    Kingdom of Aram-Damascus

    Aramean tribes

    Arubu tribes

    Nabatu tribes

    Assyrian Empire

    Kingdom of MoabThe historic Philistines (Hebrew פְּלְשְׁתִּים, plishtim) (see "other uses" below) were a people who inhabited the southern coast of Canaan before the time of the arrival of the Israelites, their territory being named Philistia in later contexts. Their origin has been debated among scholars, but modern archaeology has suggested early cultural links with the Mycenean world in mainland Greece. Though the Philistines adopted local Canaanite culture and language before leaving any written texts, an Indo-European origin has been suggested for a handful of known Philistine words (See Philistine language).

    Nothing mentioned about Palestinians, or Syrians.

    Genetics shows the people of Palestine are descendants of the original inhabitants. Shows uninterrupted occupation (without a 2000 year recess).

    Eventually all traces of the Philistines as a people or ethnic group disappear. Subsequently the cities were under the control of Persians, Jews (Hasmonean Kingdom), Greeks (Seleucid Empire), Romans, and subsequent empires.

    The name "Palestine" comes, via Greek and Latin, from the Philistines;

    The Palestinians are genetic descendents of the Canaanites, whose culture was adopted by the Israelis when they came to Canaan.

    They are also genetically similar to the Lebanese, who are descendants of the Canaanite Phoenicians

    The name does not matter, but it is interesting that it has been applied to the people since such a long time. Over 2000 years in fact.

    Far greater than the time the name Americans has been applied to citizens of the US.

    Quite a deeply entrenched identity, wouldn't you say?

    that isn't that common for example you do not here much about the dacians why the roman killed them and tried to suppress their culture over the longer time frame we are talking about it would not suprise me that one of the conquering powers was successful in destroying all records of them
