Biggest holocaust in all humanity being hidden from history

"The "final solution" of the North American Indian problem was the model for the subsequent Jewish holocaust and South African apartheid

Why is the biggest holocaust in all humanity being hidden from history? Is it because it lasted so long that it has become a habit? It's been well documented that the killing of Indigenous people in the Western Hemisphere since the beginning of colonization has been estimated at 120 million. Yet nobody wants to speak about it.

Today historians, anthropologists and archaeologists are revealing that information on this holocaust is being deliberately eliminated from the knowledge base and consciousness of North Americans and the world. A completely false picture is being painted of our people as suffering from social ills of our own making.

It could be argued that the loss of 120 million from 1500 to 1800 isn't the same as the loss of 6 million people during World War II. Can 6 million in 1945 be compared to 1 million in 1500?

School children are still being taught that large areas of North America are uninhabited as if this land belongs to no one and never did. The role of our ancestors as caretakers is constantly and habitually overlooked by colonial society.

Before the arrival of Europeans, cities and towns here were flourishing. Mexico City had a larger population than any city in Europe. The people were healthy and well-fed. The first Europeans were amazed. The agricultural products developed by the Indigenous people transformed human nutrition internationally.

The North American Indian holocaust was studied by South Africa for their apartheid program and by Hitler for his genocide of the Jews during World War II. Hitler commented that he admired the great job Americans had done in taking care of the Indian problem. The policies used to kill us off was so successful that people today generally assume that our population was low. Hitler told a past US President when he remarked about their maltreatment of the Jewish people, he mind your own business. You're the worst.

Where are the monuments? Where are the memorial ceremonies? Why is it being concealed? The survivors of the WWII holocaust have not yet died and already there is a movement afoot to forget what happened.

Unlike post-war Germany, North Americans refuse to acknowledge this genocide. Almost one and a quarter million Kanien'ke:haka (Mohawk) were killed off leaving us only a few thousand survivors.

North Americans do not want to reveal that there was and still is a systematic plan to destroy most of the native people by outright murder by bounty hunters and land grabbers, disease through distributing small pox infested blankets, relocation, theft of children who were placed in concentration camps called "residential schools" and assimilation.

As with the Jews, they could not have accomplished this without their collaborators who they trained to serve their genocidal system through their "re-education camps".

The policy changed from outright slaughter to killing the Indian inside. Governments, army, police, church, corporations, doctors, judges and common people were complicit in this killing machine. An elaborate campaign has covered up this genocide which was engineered at the highest levels of power in the United States and Canada. This cover up continues to this day. When they killed off all the Indians, they brought in Blacks to be their labourers.

In the residential schools many eye witnesses have recently come forward to describe the atrocities. They called these places "death camps" where, according to government records, nearly half of all these innocent Indigenous children died or disappeared as if they never existed. In the 1920's when Dr. Bryce was alarmed by the high death rate of children in residential schools, his report was suppressed.

The term "Final Solution" was not coined by the Nazis. It was Indian Affairs Superintendent, Duncan Campbell Scott, Canada's Adolph Eichmann, who in April 1910 plotted out the planned murder to take care of the "Indian problem".

"It is readily acknowledged that Indian children lose their natural resistance to illness by habitating so closely in these schools, and that they die at a much higher rate than in their villages. But this alone does not justify a change in the policy of this Department, which is geared towards the final solution of our Indian Problem". (DIA Archives, RG 10 series).

In the 1930's he brought German doctors over here to do medical experiments on our children. According to the study the majority of the lives of these children was extinguished. School children are taught his poetry with no mention of his role as the butcher of the Indian people.

Those who carried out this annihilation of our people were protected so they could declare full-scale war on us. North Americans as heirs of the fruits of this murderous system have blood on their hands. If people are sincere about preventing holocausts they must remember it. History must be told as it really happened in all its tragic details.

It's not good enough to just remember the holocaust that took place during the lifetime of some of the survivors. We have to remember the larger holocaust. Isn't it time to uncover the truth and make the perpetrators face up to this?

In the west there are a whole series of Eichmanns. General Amherst ordered the distribution of small pox infested blankets to kill of our people. But his name is shamelessly preserved in the names of towns and streets. George Washington is called the "village burner" in Mohawk because of all the villages he ordered burnt. Villages would be surrounded. As the people came running out, they would be shot, stabbed, women, children and elders alike. In one campaign alone "hundreds of thousand died, from New York across Pennsylvania, West Virgina and into Ohio". His name graces the capital of the United States.

The smell of death in their own backyard does not seem to bother North Americans. This is obscene."

I've knwon about this, my religion teacher told me about that and I did some research, seems many native groups were completely wiped out.

Most people sadly don't care because they're too ignorant to check the past.

This didn't just happen in America. It also happened in Australia, all over the continent. The most shocking example occured in Tasmania (an Island off the Australian mainland, about the same size as Scotland). Every "full blooded" tasmanian aboriginal was murdered, and those "tasmainian aboriginals" that survive are mostly very very white.

Here are a few links:

A quick search for "tasmania genocide" will yield plenty of results. Be sure to stay away from anything by Keith Windschuttle.

 

..........& not forgetting the Japanese genocidal policy enacted within it's occupation of Manchuria & mainland China from 1931 to 1945.
In particular Nanking in 1937.

 

& am I right in saying the North American Buffalo was wiped-out deliberately so to deprive the North American Indians with their stable life-dependency resource?.

 

hmm well apart from the fact the first post was a cut and paste from that webbsite you linked to Id be interested in seeing a breakdown of figures for this 120million dead .

I had a discussion a few years ago and someone who claimed that americans had commited the worst act of genocide in history, I dont think the facts back that up .
I think its likely that the islamic invasion of india alone could show higher numbers .

also if you look at the actions of the indian tribes to each other and to captives if you look at what the aztec ect ect used to do to each other , were they any better .

I think one of the great myths is of this peaceful native american who was just picked on by the nasty white man I think this smacks of racism , most people in history have been pretty nasty and have competed for resources

 

America the red white and blue
the white slaughtered the red until their eyes turned blue
the white writes the rules
line em up, sign the troops
fill em with metal, give em medals when they die in their boots

America the red white and blue
the blue fights the red, the red fights the blue
the white hides the truth
the white blinds the youth
keeps their minds confused, so they won't find their roots

hmm again doesnt address the red killing the red or the red killing the white ...does it racist

 

Some Natives were peaceful and some were not, but it's all gotta be looked on an individual tribe case by case. Thats irrelavent though simpley do to the fact that this was their country and white Europeans came here and disrupted everything they were doing to ultamently kill just about everybody.

 

Seems you want a case by case basis for the "natives" but want to generalize all "whites". There were "whites" who lived very well among the "natives" as friend and some as family. Many "whites" were killed for defending the "natives" and thier ways.

 

one minute your say that we have to look at things by a tribe by tribe basis, then you seem to say there was some sort of united country that somehow these nasty europeans took over

I understand you had lots of different tribes fighting over turf ,I see the europeans as just another tribe, native americans red indians or whatever you call them are human, europeans are human .

for whatever reason the europeans won this conflict, it could have been the crows or sioux but it wasnt, some tribes did badly in the new order some ended up owning casinos .

I dont see that america or the europeans are trying to kill off all the native americans they may disapear because of intermarriage but that doesnt mean they are all being killed off although that may have been what happened with certain tribes at certain tribes but thats not much different than could have happened with fighting between just red indian tribes

 

True, and I guess I forgot to acknowledge that, but what I said is that’s all irrelevant because whites weren't even from America, they sailed on their ships, and without co-existing, which could have been done, they forced Christianity on the Natives and took their land. Not all whites, but a good majority had some contribution.

Natives lived perfectly fine before Europe came over.

For what ever reason? Are you serious? Maybe it was their big guns. Anyways, the truth is that most casino owners are whites with 1/8 Native American in them who qualify to own casinos because their great great grandfather was Native and they probably don't even relate with other Native American's in any cultural way. Sad but true.

WTF?? It's already accepted by most historians that they were killed off by whites, and their European diseases.

 

You do have to look at each tribe as individuals because there was over one hundred different civilizations each one with its own form of language, government, religion and culture. After contact with Europeans and having their territories under occupation has united all the different tribes and in many ways we consider ourselves as one. Many tribes did not make it and when you kill all the people in one culture it is called genocide.

red Indians? First of all we are not red or from India. In Canada we are called First Nations and in USA we are called Native Americans.

Many tribes did fight over turf but ther was many differences between Europenian warfare and precontact North American warfare. Warfare in North America before contact did not have nearly as many deaths in a battle.

And it is very true that we are all humans, in fact there is no race biologically we are all the same. I believe this should mean that we all have the basic human right not to be harmed by others or have our homes taken from us by anyone.

Reasons why Europeans won was because of alcohol, germ warfare and they used tribes against each other. This was in no way a fair fight and even if it was it does not justify genocide. The person who wins the war is not always right.

No we will not die from intermarriage that only makes us grow and be stronger, since there is no such thing as race. As long as we keep our traditions and continue to sing our songs we will not go anywhere no matter what our skin colour.

America and the Europeans did try and kill all the natives off first with guns then with germ warfare, then with eugenics and residential schools. how the hell could you not see that? You really need to do some research on the things I just listed.

 

horses were also stolen and/or killed for this reason. (horses weren't used for the same reasons as buffalo though) custer's last stand anyone?

ppl don't want to feel guilt over anything, especially over something their ancestors did a long time ago, so they tend to make excuses, dehumanize the victims, rationalize what happened... etc etc. it's pretty terrible. think about all the iraqi civilians we're killing right now. is it genocide? maybe not... but does anybody really talk about it?

 

this is very true and many do not look at history from different perspectives they only allow themselves to see a one dimensional point of view written by the winning side. Most of the people who say things like "it happened in the past" and "well the Europeons won the war" usually get to use their white privlages in society and have no idea what it is like to be native. Some people really need to do some more research before they start to discuss a matter.

and good point on the Iraq situation I would say it is not right out genocide over there because they are not killing everyone but it is modern colonialism and I am sure the american government has some form of cultural genocide in their agenda in the way they want to westernize the iraq government system. but the two different situations do share the way people ignore and justify the acts of mass violence.

 

It was tragic, but it wasn't a deliberate genocide.

 

Yes it was

in many cases whole tribes where killed off by Europeans. The real explorers where not the happy ones you learn about in elementry school they where mass murders who used violence to control,enslave and wipe out civilizations all in the name of thier monarcy and god.

if you look at the more current cultural genocide which happened with residental schools it was very deliberate. These schools took first nations children from homes and relocated them to schools with the purpose of assimilating them into white culture. Many children where abused and they where not aloud to speak thier languages or have anything to do with thier culture.

please explain how these acts where not deliberate.

 

Yes they were treated badly. They were murdered and persecuted. But they were not systematically exterminated as part of a government plan to wipe them out. That's what a genocide is.

 

The African Slave Trade and Holocaust was much worse


If you take into account the number of slaves that were transported overland to coastal european forts (the survival rate was around 50%) then 54,000 trips across the atlantic (in which millions more perished) and the many that died through sheer brutality and being overworked...it was much worse...
