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

Sort:  

American troops were sent abroad in the 1790s to steal native American land.

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.
