Pretending that things can ever go back to something resembling the way they were before "we" showed up is of no use or benefit.

Noone is suggesting that aboriginals be allowed to roam onto every piece of land they'd like. In this case we are talking about giving back a relatively small patch of land as it will help their society as a whole.

Perhaps we should spend the next 400 years raping, murdering, and poisoning the hudderites and see if it affects their ability to function as a society and buy land the old fashioned way.
