82. Just to point something out
Most land that is occupied by humans has been stolen so many times at one point or another by so many groups that griping about us stealing land from Mexico, who stole said land from Spain by rebelling against the Spanish, who stole that land from the native tribes c/o the Conquistadores, and some of said native tribes ie the Navajo and I think the Apache as two of the bigger examples stole the lands they lived on from other tribes, and so on and so forth, so quite frankly if someone wants to make the whole argument of "we stole their land" guess what, they were never the original owners to begin with! Furthermore, we own the land by the oldest right of controlling property in human history that has been established since you had organized societies and upheld ever since: by right of conquest.
