Still are with the law that there can be no dual citizenships in the ndn tribes. If you are full blood and are half Cherokee and half Creek, for instance, you can only register with one tribe or the other, not with both. That effectively makes you only one half ndn and your children one quarter if you marry out of your race.
Assimilation by one effort or another.:mad: :(
One day there will be no more ndns and the US of A will have finally won the ndn war.:grumpy:
 
Yes, Cliff, the international community wants stable borders, but if you look at Africa you can see a lot of the world aint there yet. And you're certainly right that as long as men breath air someone somewhere will be thinking about taking Joe's land.

Coincidentally, I just watched "Hiroshima: Why the Bomb Was Dropped". IMHO very interesting and objective documentary. Does explain a lot about the events of those days and reveals things in different light, meaning official version about the bomb being the only option to end the war quickly.
One of the things is what a blind devotion to the idol (japanese to their emperor in this case) can do and how that can be used by others, i.e. US politicans to have a reason for dropping the bomb.
So, the way I see it Japanese could do nothing to prevent Hiroshima and Nagasaki, given their faith in emperor, or whatever you call it. In a way it's their fault too.

Didn't China basically conquer and annex Tibet and parts of N. India in the
late 40's early 50's?
 
We're on the same page; nobody's, including my own, generalizations do not work all the time, perhaps most of the time.

A very interesting view of the state of affairs between the US and Japan just prior to the war, is Martin Cruz Smith's novel December 6th.
