Unfortunately and all too often European colonialism was and remains responsible for much of the ills plaguing the developing world and Middle East: even long after independence, former colonies still have to deal with inequities of land distribution, wealth and resource allocation, dwindling natural resources, and outright theft by their former masters. That being said, it should also be pointed out that local people also sought to use Europeans to their advantage by selling opponents into slavery or trying to enlist European firepower to their cause against other local enemies. When the French landed in what is now Canada, native tribes attempted just that - with disastrous consequences. Slavery, butchery and savagery are not merely the historical imperatives of one race by any means: a closer examination of all warring tribes in all parts of the world down through time easily demonstrates that human behaviour of this kind is indeed common to all.

By using the phrase "white people" you are replicating the same racist ideology that was instrumental to colonialism, which you denounce. You should have a deepest analysis, if you don't want to create the same polarization and ideology which has been so negative in the history of the West between 16th and 20th century.

white people couldn't have conquered the world if thier society was as corrupt as you make it out to be. europe had alot to offer in terms of technology, immunities etc. you just have to take the bad with the good. i agree about the middle east though. the white people there are ruthless heathens bent on fueling thier military industrial complex with the blood of the martyrs.
