RE: Looks like World War 3 coming for us All ! What are You doing to Stop this Evil that wills the Destruction of Everything ?
1812 is after 1801, no troops were sent abroad to fight Indians and the territory they were removed from at that time was legally acquired from the French and English. They didn't commission the Navy to fight Indians did they?
Who were the first American navel vessels after the revolution commissioned to fight?
"Howard Zinn, America's greatest historian "
ROFL
American troops were sent abroad in the 1790s to steal native American land.
In your comment you are in effect justifying the genocide of the Indians by claiming that the USA acquired Indian land ''legally'' from France and Britain. It is quite incredible how you can justify the theft of Indian land by what amounts to a white supremacist attitude.
Your pedantic hair splitting and sophistry fails to cover up your gross ignorance of American history.
As for your disparaging of Howard Zinn what can I say about your erudite manner: From nothing, through nothing to nothing - Hegel
steal
v.
To take (the property of another) without right or permission.
v.
To present or use (someone else's words or ideas) as one's own.
v.
To get or take secretly or artfully: steal a look at a diary; steal the puck from an opponent.
None of those things apply.
It's not theft nor a whit supremacist attitude, you have failed to prove me right or yourself wrong on a single point yet you claim victory, that is sophistry.
Zinn's book is anti American hogwash, political tripe.
