So I guess my ancestors were murderers but europeans murdered millions of indians and aboriginals and robbed their lands in 2 american continents and australia, new zealand all over the place is that crime or "immigration"?

Middle easterners abuse their women and crime level everyday is that culture or crime?

Basically everywhere there are same history Everyone's were ancestors criminal because Time itself of crime time, but today we are entering into civilized stage of social evolvement.

people get so emotional, it is an a video about street children, it is not about nationalism or patriotism, it is a little disheartening to see that most of these comments are about which country is better or who is evil or just people hurling insults at eachother. What about these children??

First of all, I want to thank the lady who made the orphan house and camp for the kids. It's true that every country has some social problems as Mongolians are facing now. However, the little kids need the help first. They are too little that they don't know how to survive. Since the government of Mongolia is too corrupted and doesn't want to see these problems, we have to do something to help the kids. Is the any contact info to the lady who made the house?
