Default There's plenty more .. just google

It is also during the eighteenth century that we find written reports of American Indians being intentionally exposed to smallpox by Europeans. In 1763 in Pennsylvania, Sir Jeffrey Amherst, commander of the British forces....wrote in the postscript of a letter to Bouquet the suggestion that smallpox be sent among the disaffected tribes. Bouquet replied, also in a postscript,

"I will try to innoculate the[m]...with some blankets that may fall into their hands, and take care not get the disease myself."

....To Bouquet's postscript, Amherst replied,

"You will do well as to try to innoculate the Indians by means of blankets as well as to try every other method that can serve to extirpate this exorable race."

On June 24, Captain Ecuyer, of the Royal Americans, noted in his journal:

"Out of our regard for them (i.e. two Indian chiefs) we gave them two blankets and a handkerchief out of the smallpox hospital. I hope it will have the desired effect."

Default Doule standard

"Blood!
Race!
Soil!
Land!"

Is't this not just what the Palestinians are saying pretty freakin openly, but what most of the Muslem world is saying. Why the double standard ?! I am a minor minor racist for not allowing Muslems overrun the Jewish state by outpopulating us, compared to you that isn't willing to admit that these things you say are sooooo much more apparent in Muslem countries. It's in the Quoran for God's sake. Dar al Islam. A world under Islamic law. What could be more racist ( and frankly scary) than that ?!?

First link-


Quote:
What I do have an interest in is historical truth and accountability. Ward Churchill, of the University of Colorado, published an article on the United States Army giving out smallpox blankets to the Upper Missouri River tribes that led to the smallpox outbreak in 1837. Churchill totally fabricated this story in the 1990s. Churchill's article is not a matter of a different interpretation of the facts. It is an outright lie that he fabricated without a shred of evidence to back up his claims. The references that he cited totally disagreed with what he wrote.

Why does this matter? Based primarily on the lies of Ward Churchill, the use of smallpox blankets as a means of Indian genocide by the Unites States Army and the Government is in some current textbooks used in the educational system.
Besides that if you bothered to read it you'd note other then the above there pretty much 0 reference to blankets with smallpox but with the reality of how the disease and others actually spread.

IOW the first link does not support your accusation at all.


Second Link-

Questionable at best with two extrapolations based upon comments made in journals neither of which have any thing but the readers opinion to rely on.....Yeah.

..and I'm sorry-

This reference [for the story of American Indians and deliberate smallpox spreading ]is from American Indian Holocaust and Survival: A Population History Since 1492, by Russell Thornton, 1987 (Norman: U. of Oklahoma Pr.) pp.78-79p
Want me to point to evidence in Mein Kampf about the truth of the Jew?






Google all you want. You can find all sorts of interesting "facts" Googling-
http://timecube.com/


BTW I know a hell of alot of the history of the USA and the World its kinda my thing. So you better come out with hard factual proofs of what you say. If you're going to continue trying to blow smoke up my ass with links you did not read or opinions from questionable at best sources. Then simply don't bother.

Default Are you that silly.

Haven't heard jack about the slaughtering of the buffalo population. Are you really saying that the US did not intentionally destroy the Indian way of life. I'm a history major myself. just finished "Lies my teacher told me" about 3 months back. Intersting point of view about the US. You treated the natives like crap. "Manifest Destiny" !!! Sounds a lot worst than anything I've ever heard a Jew utter with regads to Israel.

Default Just can't accept

You really are retarded ... The Indians are decimated but the Palestinian poulation is exploding but it's isarel that is racist ant treats it's neighbors badly. You are one dumb dweeb.

And as for naked US aggression ..

http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Hi...ing_LMTTM.html

Under [President Woodrow] Wilson, the United States intervened in Latin America more often than at any other time in our history. We landed troops in Mexico in 1914, Haiti in 1915, the Dominican Republic in 1916, Mexico again in 1916 (and nine more times before the end of Wilson's presidency), Cuba in 1917, and Panama in 1918. Throughout his administration Wilson maintained forces in Nicaragua, using them to determine Nicaragua's president and to force passage of a treaty preferential to the United States.

But you really are that stupid to believe that all you do is right and all others do is wrong. You are a racist on so many levels that you calling me a racist for Israel's treatment of Palestinians (I am not their brother .. let other Arabs help them .. but they don't so dumbasses like you can feel bad for them) is actually projection.

Default Good night Sir

I sent you more than one article and the decimantion of the Indian #s should be enough. But not for a bigot unwilling to see that his own country's atrocities shadow anything done in Israel. Good night Sir. The fact is that I don't care what you think because you are not in Israel's shoes. And the fact is that I believe a very small minority of the people in this forum believe you point of view because they are not so shortsighted as to the US's shortcomings and historical misconduct. But even the US pales in comparison to Arab countries. But no .. It's Israel's fault.

What no pointing to the Vietnam War?

You failed to prove your statement about Smallpox Blankets to any degree worthy of anyone who claims to be a "History Major". While doing so you changed the subject constantly and continuously tried to bait me into an argument that got as far away as you could from the Smallpox Blankets claim you made.
