Monarchy a Brutal, Thieving Regime
According to the Reidout Blogger Ja’han Jones the British Monarchy has been a brutal, thieving regime. This is an interesting observation from an American. There is an old saying in my country about the kettle calling the pot black. On the subject of brutality the U.S. record hasn’t much room to criticize others. Britain occupied much of Africa and the Caribbean. Usually these takeovers were during conflicts with other superpowers of the time. The U.S. on the other hand attacked made war on multiple indigenous tribes of American Indians such as the Iroquois Confederation, The Creek, , and the Arikara, the Winnebago War, The Blackhawk War,The Seminole War, The Commanche War, The Cayuse War, The Apache War and the Navajo War, The Puget Sound War against the Haida and others. The U.S. also made war on the Rogue River People, the Nez Perce, thePaiute, the Soshone, the Yuma, the Mohave, theSioux, the Cheyene, theArapaho, theBannock, the Lakota, the Kiowa, the Modoc, the Palouse, the Ute, and the Crow, The U.S. was still fabricating reasons to eliminate the Native Americans as late as 1923. All strictly through racist policies and hatred with the intention of wiping the Native American tribes off of the earth. The British/Canadians allied with the natives and fought to give them their own land.
Many of the Commonwealth countries were settled originally by Britain and the colonies were often very content with British rule. The U.S. thought that Canada would be happy to leave the British in 1812, but Canada chose Britain for its allegiance. Meanwhile the American record of brutal violence is noteable. America’s history of unprovoked wars such as the Quasiwar 1800 against Caribbean islands, the war of 1812 with Canada, the Mexican -American War of 1846, the Spanish -American War 1898, Invasion of Cuba in 1912, Invasions of Nicaragua in 1912, Haiti in 1915, Dominican Republic in 1915, Cuba in 1961, Libya in 1987, Panama in 1989, Haiti in 1994. and of course the totally fabricated invasion of Iraq in 2003
Thieving
Ja’han Jones described the British Monarchy asa, thieving regime, yet U.S. occupation is also rife with theft. An estimated $150 billion of stolen money has been smuggled out of Iraq in corrupt deals since the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, President Barham Salih urged Iraqi lawmakers to discuss and approve proposed legislation “to help curb this dangerous scourge that has deprived our people of enjoying the wealth of their country for many years.” Iraq announced that $17 billion was stolen — and that it was stolen by corrupt U.S. institutions.
Conclusion
Before Mr. Jones criticizes others he should look into a historical mirror. Britain did have wars against other European Nations and captured their territories. Britain colonized many territories, and Britain maintained troops in order to protect their territory as well as that of others, much the same as the U.S. does today. And like the U.S. today, they were not always appreciated for it. It is obviously That Mr. Jones is not a historian and he obviously knows as much about history as the typical American. But when you don’t know what you are talking about, silence is best considered. If Mr Jones wants to see a country guilty of brutality, violence, murder and Theft he need look no further than his own.
