Ah - the old lie about diseased blankets. What nonsense. Did you get that from Chomsky or the Workers World Daily? The rest are incidents. And Whites have theirs as well- Rowenoake, The Ohio slaughters, The Michagan and Wisconsin slaughters- The Pequot wars of early Massachusetts.

Christianity does not mean "walk all over me". Little Big Horn! Hey chief- we lost that one- the Indians then mutalated the bodies of the dead. Wounded Knee? A masscre? Tell me? What kind of Masscre has a 3 to one casualty count? American soldiers died at Wounded Knee fighting a crazed moron. Revisionist garbage.

The Aztecs and Mayans built stone stuctures on the backs of conquered slaves without even the benfit of the wheel for Godsakes! can you imagine the brutality that must have existed in such societies? Unreal. Name one thing either civilization gave to the world?

Oh- and it bears remembering that the Aztecs and the Incas (the Mayans were already gone) were both conquered with the help of thousands of Indians in the area who were slave nations before the Spanish arrived.

Well, gee, the Egytians built their pyramids on slave labor and Rome it's whole empire. Not to mention quite a few industries and buildings in America...but the blacks had it coming, all savages do, don't they?

Here's some sites on Wounded Knee...doesn't quite fit your view and nothing I've ever read does. Nor does it excuse the slaughter of the Buffalo to starve the Indians, Congress' Indian Resolution (slaughter whole villages basically). The excuse that the government could not control migration is a cop out, it didn't want to. To much gold and other resources it wanted to gobble up. That is why an Indian Burea still runs indian land (Let me spell that out to you: American citizens who are not and have never been allowed to own and manage their own ancestral land with corporations freely stripping it). Last estimate that if the government ever (like the US gove ever will) had to pay back that money it would be in the billions, and that was in US News/World Report...a rather conservative magazine. But you'll blow it off...after all they're still savages not to be trusted...like dem Japs we all had te round up and steal der dem good farm land frum. At least they finally won a law suit on that.

Try excusing what Andrew Jackson did...one account was of his troops cutting out uterises and using them as hats...and that written by one of the officers. I think he was bragging. Trail of Tears? Please, most of the exterminations were begun by settlers moving into land that was never their's. Why is it that Russia was able to colonize a lot more land without exterminating the native populations? This to include the Indians in Alaska, Oragan, Washington and N. California...the majority of Alaskan Indians are still Orthodox Christians and many speak Russian.

I'm sure you'll write it off, it doesn't fit into your white washed version of history.

site 1
Site 2, this one has some eye witnesses from the US Army...seems they disagree with you too...I'm shocked I tell you
Site 3

Should I post more? So far you've struck out on all points on Indians, from their civilizations to their numbers...you try to back track and white wash what you've said but the post stands as proof. Believe what you want, reality is still reality.
