If we are going to make legal decisions based on revisionist history...

...let's pay a sizeable percentage of our GDP to all the African govts from whom we nicked a lot of people to make into slaves. After all, these govts seem to argue that their development has been hindered over the centuries due to the slave trade and depletion of their populations (wouldn't have anything to do with corruption and tribal politics wuold it?!)

...let's pay a sizeable percentage of our GDP to the Abbos and Maoris who we 'massacred' in order to grab their land. Oh the shame of our colonial legacy...!

...let's pay a sizeable percentage of our GDP to the cities of Dresden, Hamburg, Cologne...get the picture?
