I never liked how land transfered from one power group to another, because it always meant that some group got screwed. This is the way of the world. It happend with the early Indian wars, going all the way back to King Philip. The honeymoon was over as soon as we saw what they had and we didn't.

Amazing when you realize that it didn't take long for the Pilgrims to go from thankful beneificiary to hunter of the indians. Capt Benjamin Church was the Audie Murphy of his day. This was only in the space of one generation. Didn't take long for the thrill to wear off. Or the gratitude.

We haven't changed.
