Does this mean "native American" tribes may have to give up their casinos and claims to sovereignty?

No. The treaties are valid and will remain so no matter if the American Indians arrived five minutes before Columbus.

If the American Indians arrived five minutes before Columbus, shouldn't the Norwegians have the casinos?
