1eye, you ain't to blame for your ignorance. Seen too many John Wayne movies. You need to read some about the subject then get back to me so we can have a intellegent conversation. Lemme know, an' I'll give you a list of books about the subject. And don't believe for a minute that this was an issue about "enemies" and war. Only some of the tribes had the power to resist for very long. Even the peaceful tribes that tried to get along as neighbors were eventually relocated because the last of their shrinking lands were coveted. You my friend are a victim of the revisionist history that was taught to children for ages and reinforced by media stereotypes.
