And now:Ish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~jamarcus/ammmy.html On December 29, 1890, there was an encounter between Big Foot�s band of Miniconjou Sioux and the 7th US Cavalry at Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Reservation of South Dakota. This confrontation is seen as the last major ar med conflict between the Indians and the whites in the United States. Although some authors make a brief mention to the incident, saying, "The Army trapped the Indians... and destroyed them"....<<END EXCERPT http://www.dickshovel.com/WKmasscre.html "There is nothing to conceal or apologize for in the Wounded Knee Battle - beyond the killing of a wounded buck by a hysterical recruit. The firing was begun by the Indians and continued until they stopped - with the one exception noted above." "That women and children were casualties was unfortunate but unavoidable, and most must have been [killed] from Indian bullets...The Indians at Wounded Knee brought their own destruction as surely as any people ever did. Their attack on the troops was as treacherous as any in the history of Indian warfare, and that they were under a strange religious hallucination is only an explanation not an excuse."..<<END EXCERPT WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN... <<<<=-=-=FREE LEONARD PELTIER=-=-=>>>> If you think you are too small to make a difference; try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito....
