Did you ever ask the Native Peoples in Canada and the US what they thought about those Europeans, including Ukrainians, coming here and taking their land, culture and religion? Or is your comment simply a self-justification that since we did it to them, everybody should be able to do it everyone else?  

Why is it that Poles, Finns, Latvians, Ukrainians don't like Russians occupying their land, taking their language and culture? Shouldn't they be simply more Christlike (after all Russians are fellow Christians) and invite them in to take more?
