Caging the natives


Caging the natives


The U.S. is building a Berlin Wall in Baghdad to separate Sunnis from Shiites --- a 12-foot-high, three-mile-long wall separating a historic Sunni enclave from Shiite neighborhoods.

A Sunni doctor told the New York Times that the wall would transform the residents into caged animals, and added: “The Native Americans were treated better than us.”

He doesn't know enough American history. We may have slaughtered Indians because we wanted their land, but we never caged them up.

Oh, wait, there are those Indian Reservations....
