Wounded Knee Massacre - December 29, 1890



On the clear, cold morning of December 29, 1890, on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, three U.S. soldiers tried to wrench a valuable Winchester away from a young Lakota man. He refused to give up his hunting weapon. It was the only thing standing between his family and starvation, and he had no faith it would be returned to him as the officer promised: he had watched as soldiers had marked other confiscated valuable weapons for themselves.


Sigh, I know.

Only a MAGA idiot - would be whining and crying his ass off - in view of those Medals being retracted.
 
Netanyahu is a wanted war criminal anyone who can't or won't see that is in total denial, not that i have much confidence to follow through on the indictment.
Anyone who claims that Israel was the aggressor when it was attacked is in denial of common sense.
 
You have turned the facts upside down. You're quoting Heather Cox Richardson, one of the most biased and misleading scholars on the Wounded Knee incident. Wounded Knee was a battle started by some fanatical Indians who were brainwashed with the Ghost Dance myths. The Indians fired first. Many of the soldiers held their fire to avoid hitting women and children. Most of the women and children who were killed in the initial fighting were killed by their fellow Indians. Have you heard of Father Francis Craft? He was an "Indian lover" who witnessed the event, and he said that the Indians fired first and that all the soldiers he saw fought honorably.

"Biased and misleading scholar" because you disagree with her narrative? There is no shortage of that type of opinion these days.
