Absolutely no-one as far as I'm aware. That's just taking the sueing obsession too far, it's ridiculous.

Wonderful to see them supporting the idea that their ancestors can be reduced down to mere cash. Bravo.

But saying every isn't a bit (to say the least) much?

There are also the people who were killed, slaughtered in the crusades, the jihad, some countries invading others, etc... I don't see anyone suing the church because the inquisition? Or the king/queen of some country for what their ancestors might have done in the past? Their only purpose is to get $$$ without having to work. :mad:

As someone said to me over MSN, why not sue Italy for destroying the pagan ways of life across Europe?

Okay, show me somebody that suffered under slavery in the time they're talking about and is still alive, that person deserves lots of money and attention.  They'd be 300 years old.

It's just like the "Black Community" here in the States *****ing about reparations, it's rediculous.  

Western Civilization is sympathizing itself to death.  In another 100 years the Terrorists won't have to bomb places to get their way, they'll have won.  Hell, some people would just as soon roll over right now.
