Seriously, did you not take history in school. Look it up for yourself and get educated.
I think wars have been started to keep countries in check. Also for the resources people need and don't want to get it from their own land. It's just religious people happen to be involved in the fight. Religion doesn't start wars, oil and other resources do.......spices, rubies, emeralds, diamonds and gold.
As Americans we need to realize our wants and needs can cause war and oppression upon others.
Problem is...they have come... and continue to come... to US!
Well, the entire Muslim population of the U.S.--native born and from the entire rest of the world combined--is a whopping 0.8%. I'm not going to get my undies in a twist about it this year.
Only because his parent's claimed it.......one can only be born a color, religion is man-made and has been known to be changed to devour a powerful human being.
He claimed himself to be Christian and he had good relation with the Church after his election.
Muslims sold Muslims to many. Why is this generation of "white people" responsible for Muslims bringing Muslims to America as slaves?
We compensated Germans , Japanese after world war 2, why can't we compensate black people ?

The first slaves imported into the American colonies were 100 White children. They arrived during Easter, 1619, four months before the arrival of a the first shipment of Black slaves.Mainstream histories refer to these laborers as indentured servants, not slaves, because many agreed to work for a set period of time in exchange for land and rights.
Notice the children had to work in a foreign land.......

Maybe you should ask the Africans that sold the slaves to reimburse their proceeds to all the blacks in the U.S.
Oh wait, as usual you're just bringing up completely random bullsh** that has nothing to do with the current topic. You want to talk about slavery reparations do it here:

WOW!!!!! thank you for bringing that to light! That justifies what happened to the Christian couple!

So as an immigrant that just moved to the US do you carry the same responsibility as someone whose ancestors owned slaves?
