That is painting the Americian Indians with a broad brush, there were/are many tribes and the actions of one tribe are just that, it is not fair to say that it was all one sided or all Indians are the same (though many paid the price for the actions of others).
I will gladly read up on this issue to become better informed of our history.

That's correct, many did NOT attack us.
The Mohegans were our allies in the Pequot wars, so were the Nehantics.
But, in Connecticut, we gave the first casino to the Pequots instead of the Mohegans, because the Pequots were almost wiped out during that battle.
