Why?

Ok.. from what I have heard here the guy is maybe not too big on documentation... this makes sense to me because what he is saying is outlandish and would be the type of thing that liberal academics (the majority of academics) would be using daily as a guilt trip on the rest of us if there were any truth to it at all...  

the indian wars for instance have been really distorted with the indians as sorta... early day hippies that went out of their way to not step on ants and such instead of the real indian who would run heard of buffaloa off bluffs to get a little mean and skins and would find nothing more joyfull than spending a nice couple of days torturing a settler and his family before the people had the bad taste to die and ruin the fun.  Yet, the fact that there were white atrocities is gone over in great length and repetedly.  

Now it appears... the japs may have been latter day hippies only giving back what they got to the white devils.

Plus... it now appears that we went on some bosnian like genocide purge in the phillipiens that has up till now escaped everyones attention.

oh... what I mean is... I will wait till my library has a copy.

The book is approximately 400 pages long.  I would estimate he spends maybe 5-10 pages discussing what happened to native americans and filipinos.

I would estimate the atrocities visited on the Chinese occupy the largest part of the book.  

He includes an interview of George Bush, Sr. since he was almost a dinner guest.

As I said, good read, you'll probably learn a few things - I certainly did.
