You are not taking it back, Ward. That would make you an Indian giver, wouldn't it?

Most of the book is a detailed chronology of U.S. military interventions since 1776 and U.S. violations of international law since World War II. My point is that we cannot allow the U.S. government, acting in our name, to engage in massive violations of international law and fundamental human rights and not expect to reap the consequences.

My point is that we cannot allow the U.S. government, acting in our name,..

How reminiscent of the Not in my name theme... Ol' Ward is nothing but a Commie to the core and too much of a coward to admit it.

Aw, I didn't understand, Ward. I take back all those bad thoughts about you.

Now what about that other stuff? You know the phony scholarship where the footnotes rebut what you say rather than support it? That is sort of confusing. Maybe you were on peyote when you wrote it. And what is with those Indian guys who say you are not one of them. That is confusing, too. Perhaps they are on peyote. And that stuff about Vietnam. You say so many things I get you confused with John Kerry. Were you a projector operator or one of those truly brave behind the enemy lines guys? You claim one thing but the record shows another. Got any peyote left? I'm confused.

So how does he explain the "Little Eichmans" statement?

Ya know, I am native American (note I capitalize only the American), and I am sick of hearing jerks like this... and I hear way too many I assure ya.

A bit of background. My Great Great Great Great Grandfather was John Ross, a Cherokee chief from the 1820s to 1860s. While he himself was in fact only 1/8th Cherokee and was mostly Scottish, our family was pretty intermarried with the Cherokee peoples, ratio has gone up and down until I am personally 1/4 Cherokee (or closest figuring of it anyway). Since to have your Indian card in this tribe you are now only required to be 1/32d, I am more Cherokee than most of the tribe I guess.

I could rail about how the white men screwed my people... if I choose to ignore that the white men are also my people. I could definitely complain on behalf of Cherokees who were civilized, lived in houses, with gardens, fenced yards, etc. They were hardly savages. However, many native tribes WERE basically savage, and a lot of mythology about the nobility of the native peoples has been created. Some little known facts, such as how plains Indians, before acquiring horses, were known to light huge prairie fires driving hundreds of buffalo off a cliff, so the women could butcher half a dozen at the base of the cliffs.

Instead I choose to be pragmatic. I think about things like, what would have been the outcome of WWII if the United States HAD remained 13 little colonies. And I think about how native American peoples would have fared under Hitlers master race theory. I hear so many of my fellow tribesmen complain about the whites... then get in their car, buy some beer, on the way home to sit in front of a television.

Yeah.. I really wish we could go back to the good ole days where our best mode of conveyance was a dog pulling a travois, and our best tools were stone aged.
