Fine. We’ll send the U.S. Army back to deal with them again.

They better be careful, they already lost one war against the US.

I suspect they’re waiting for the US Treasury to show up w/ the usual buckets of (our) $.

Was once not enough for them? (we’ve already seen how that ends)
Just give them some money for another casino or two, and they’ll STFU....

I don’t think the Sioux want to go there again.

The proposed route for the pipeline passes through the Ogallala Aquifer...
Along with thousands of miles of other pipelines. But this one must be bad, because Obama said so.

Toss them a case of firewater or alcohol based hair spray, and they will settle down.

posturing for extortion and shake-down. . . .

I think I can translate from the Sioux language using a famous phrase from the movies:
“Show me the money!!!”

Transporting by rail is better? Thanks to liberals’ transportation policies, we have fewer rail lines; same applies in Canada.
If not for the USA, they would not know that they were Sioux; they would be “Hispanics”.

Do they have any legal right to stand on? Not insofar as the tribal president asserts that the Rosebud Sioux reservation is a "sovereign nation." That simply isn't true, and Cyril Scott knows it isn't true. Pure bluster and posturing.
A basic principal of federal Indian law is that Congress has plenary jurisdiction over land set aside (i.e., reservations) for the use of Indians. In theory -- if not as a matter of practical political reality -- Congress could, by legislative act, abolish the Rosebud Sioux reservation entirely.

We are a sovereign nation and we are not being treated as such,...I agree. What sovereign nation receives so much of the American taxpayers' dollars?
To: chajin
Well, why not? We haven’t jumped into a new war for a couple of weeks.
