A Beginner's Guide to Ethnic Politics (by Stuart Kaufman)
If an area was ours for 500 years and yours for 50 years, it should belong to us – you are merely occupiers. If an area was yours for 500 years and ours for 50 years, it should belong to us – borders must not be changed. If an area belonged to us 500 years ago but never since then, it should belong to us – it is the cradle of our nation. If a majority of our people live there, it must belong to us – they must enjoy the right of self-determination. If a minority of our people live there, it must belong to us – they must be protected against your oppression. All of the above rules apply to us, but not to you. Our dream of greatness is historical necessity, yours is fascism.
