there is not such thing as "their lands" for nobody outside the modern concept of registered individual property. All people, tribe, nation, has gone one over the next and has mixed since humans left Africa.

Ok, now do that but show whites in Europe. I wonder if you would show it as something empowering too. 🤪

Good to know that you're on the side of Israelis taking their land back.

This is great news to see Indigenous peoples across the continent reclaiming their own sovereignty and writing their own narratives!

And were any of them sovereign enough to say they didn't need government hand outs (money)?

I used to @Natgeo when it used to be non-political. All good things come to end.

Indigenous Solidarity: Maori Warriors Stand with Israel "From the River to the Sea, Indigenous Peoples Will Be Free" Jews are the true indigenous people of Israel and where Muslims call "Palestine". This video captures Maori performers unleashing a traditional Haka on the steps of New Zealand's Parliament. Deeper dive: The Maori people, the indigenous Polynesian inhabitants of New Zealand (Aotearoa), have a rich cultural heritage rooted in tribal traditions, including the powerful Haka. This is the ceremonial dance and chant that expresses strength, unity, and defiance. Historically, Maori have faced colonization leading to land loss and cultural suppression, but they've resiliently fought for their rights and sovereignty through treaties like the Treaty of Waitangi. Today, Maori clearly see the parallels between their indigenous struggles and those of the Jewish people, knowing historically and factually Jews as being the original indigenous inhabitants of Israel who are decolonizing their ancient homeland after centuries of exile and oppression. The video is a declaration of solidarity, flipping the anti-Israel chant on its head to affirm divine justice and indigenous rights. The event shown highlights shared values of freedom, resilience, and opposition to terrorism. In a world where misinformation and disinformation paints Israel as a "colonizer," these Maori voices remind us that true decolonization means supporting indigenous peoples reclaiming their lands - from Aotearoa to Judea. A big thanks to the Maori!
