excerpt:
Sherman’s theory of white racial superiority is what led him to the
policy of waging war against the Indians "till the Indians are all
killed or taken to a country where they can be watched." As Fellman
(p. 264) writes:
Sherman planted a racist tautology: Some Indians are thieving, killing
rascals fit for death; all Indians look alike; therefore, to get some
we must eliminate all . . . deduced from this racist tautology . . .
the less destructive policy would be racial cleansing of the
land . . .
Accordingly, Sherman wrote to Grant: "We must act with vindictive
earnestness against the Sioux, even to their extermination, men, women
and children." Writing two days later to his brother John, General
Sherman said: "I suppose the Sioux must be
exterminated . . ." (Fellman, p. 264).
This was Sherman’s attitude toward Southerners during the War for
Southern Independence as well. In a July 31, 1862 letter to his wife
(from his Collected Works) he wrote that his purpose in the war was:
"Extermination, not of soldiers alone, that is the least part of the
trouble, but the [Southern] people." His charming and nurturing wife
Ellen wrote back that her fondest wish was for a war "of extermination
and that all [Southerners] would be driven like the Swine into the
sea."
With this attitude, Sherman issued the following order to his troops
at the beginning of the Indian Wars: "During an assault, the soldiers
cannot pause to distinguish between male and female, or even
discriminate as to age. As long as resistance is made, death must be
meted out . . ." (Marszalek, p. 379).
Most of the raids on Indian camps were conducted in the winter, when
families would be together and could therefore all be killed at once.
Sherman gave Sheridan "authorization to slaughter as many women and
children as well as men Sheridan or his subordinates felt was
necessary when they attacked Indian villages" (Fellman, p. 271). All
livestock was also killed so that any survivors would be more likely
to starve to death.
Sherman was once brought before a congressional committee after
federal Indian agents, who were supposed to be supervising the Indians
who were on reservations, witnessed "the horror of women and children
under military attack." Nothing came of the hearings, however. Sherman
ordered his subordinates to kill the Indians without restraint to
achieve what he called "the final solution of the Indian problem," and
promised that if the newspapers found out about it he would "run
interference against any complaints about atrocities back
East" (Fellman, p. 271).
Eight years into his war of "extermination" Sherman was bursting with
pride over his accomplishments. "I am charmed at the handsome conduct
of our troops in the field," he wrote Sheridan in 1874. "They go in
with the relish that used to make our hearts glad in 1864-5" (Fellman,
p. 272).
Another part of Sherman’s "final solution" strategy against this
"inferior race" was the massive slaughter of buffalo, a primary source
of food for the Indians. If there were no longer any buffalo near
where the railroad traveled, he reasoned, then the Indians would not
go there either. By 1882 the American buffalo was essentially
extinct.
Ironically, some ex-slaves took part in the Indian wars. Known as the
"Buffalo Soldiers," they assisted in the federal army’s campaign of
extermination against another colored race.
By 1890 Sherman’s "final solution" had been achieved: The Plains
Indians were all either killed or placed on reservations "where they
can be watched." In a December 18, 1890 letter to the New York Times
Sherman expressed his deep disappointment over the fact that, were it
not for "civilian interference," his army would have "gotten rid of
them all" and killed every last Indian in the U.S. (Marszalek, p.
400).
To Victor Hanson and the American Enterprise Institute this is the
kind of man who "deserves a place on the roll call of great liberators
in human history." Native Americans would undoubtedly disagree.

The Indians were ANNOYING GNATS which were a bother.
That's how they felt back then.
So they suppressed them. FOREVER!

Why don't you and rabbi Saul jump allover "_ G O D _"?

****************************
Because, you numb skull, there is no _ GOD_ ...
Even if there were a GOD, the only difference between
him and the Messiah would be that GOD doesn't think
he's Obama ...
Yes there is, and he/she/they ("_ GOD_") is contributing those anti-
semitic topics all the time. You really need to start reading via
Google Groups.

**********************************
Thanks GuthBall, but I pay for an independent News Group provider.
Google Groups is for ... well, losers and cheap motherfuckers, like you.
And, no, there is no GOD, fortunately;
but alas, there is Obama, unfortunately;
and yes, he thinks he's GOD.

Noticed that not one write-in vote was for Hagar (not even for latrine
duty). What's up with that?
