Spot on. It's very difficult to view the past through todays eyes. Our tradition as a nation is littered with horrendous actions and crimes. We have had an imperialistic approach to walking in and taking over any parts of the world that we thought we could annexe, and we didnt care who we upset/angered/slaughtered in the process or how we treated people after. If you are annihilating individuals for what was done in past times, then you have to do the same with our whole nation, including your ancestors as well as mine. None of us qualify to throw the first stone in my opinion.
