The war tomahawk was actually a British invention.

The war Tomahawk was an instrument of imperialism. British gave them to allied tribes, offering bounties on scalps (another Brit innovation)

A load of liberal revisionist bison dung, as is myth that Native Americans were peaceful people until Colonialism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crow_Creek_massacre …

Oh, I'm not arguing the Crow/Cree total war thing. N. America was always a violent place. But the British and other colonials paid bounties.

The Europeans didn't bring war to the Americas. They just made it more efficient and used it for profit.

If the Algonquians or the Iroquois had the ability to forge steel and make gunpowder before the colonists arrived...

Also, to be clear, I'm fine with the TLAM strikes. Just wish they were on air defenses and were followed up with JDAMs.

I do not support regime change in Syria. Trump's response was both measured & calculated: it was for political show; not to hurt Assad.

I think generally they have actual things to be enraged about...

Metal tomahawks were based on the British Navy's boarding axes. They're as white as NPR.

"We committed genocide against your people, but rest easy, we'll honor your fighting spirit by naming one of our war machines after you."

A respected enemy is one you Honor long after,Since nobody has been alive in a century who committed those acts, try again,"we" didn't do it

We didn't do it, but we still reap the benefits and have a responsibility. Hiding behind the atrocities of ones ancestors is cowardly.

question,.. how many ancient atrocities do any other nations have to atone for, or is it JUST America? Britain? Russia? China? Japan? Spain?

There is NOT a single people on this planet that hasn't fucked over another tribe at some point in their history, without exception.

Wearing racial "guilt" like a flag is more cowardly, it's virtue signaling without actually doing anything. Man up & address it or let it go
