I hear what you're saying, but what happened in Australia is actually quite different than what happened in most other countries. For starters there wasn't even a war (fair or not) to begin with.
(I noticed you quoted 'war' though, but still...) OK, there were settlements and all, but the penal collony and the later goldrush made that its history is somewhat different and can't be compared as such to other "new found lands".
Even the fact that most stuff happened around the 1900s, a time when you would think people would have learned one or two things from the past (eg: history about the America's and Indian people, etc) makes it a bit unique.
Not to mention that it was only after the second world war that the second extremely massive immigration began, which was conducted by their own goverment, which would lead to overpopulation in some areas and many of the disputes about land rights.
On top of this there was a "only white people can immigrate" policy up till the '70s, and together with other (racist) rules lead to fear of other races and a common racism in Australia, which is still present up to today in many people (liking it or not).
Let alone that still up to this day, the indigious inhabitants are being tricked and land is still being stolen from them, despite land right acts (which where made way too late to begin with)... Not to mention that economy is still dictating what land owners (or rather, those who did owned the land but were bought out) get (or rather not get), which is something you'll only see happening in 3rd world countries anymore...
Anyways, a lot has been done about this, and you would know the history of your own country better than I do, but it is still somewhat questionable (from the POV of an outsider) that all such stuff can happen in such modern times. But the main point of azn angel was, I think, that there are still a lot of white Austrialans who are completely oblivious to most of those facts and still do as if they "own" Australia and have every right to claim whatever land they want and calling the original inhabitants immigrants, while in fact it is them who are the immigrants. If this is because the history thought in school maybe only extents to the "white" history, I dunno, but still...
to make it clear: i do not think all Australians are racists though. far from it actually!!! The ones I know are actualy very anti-racism.
I wonder what SH thinks of this, if she reads this
