    That would be a breach by the Republic of Texas not the US. And that was
    long before the current world order.

    Sorry Brett,
    That one got more than a little messed up -- I didn't even think I was
    addressing you but I guess I did.
    Any American Indian can cite you chapter & verse on many violations.
    There was even one instance where the Indians went to the Supreme Court to
    stop Andrew Jackson and got a favorable ruling but Jackson proceeded to
    evict
    Indians regardless.
    However the only thing I can think of with foreign governments that
    comes close would be the eviction of the Mexican-Americans from Texas after
    the Texas War of Independence. If I have any of that wrong one of our Texans

    will be proud to stand up and tell us so. If so I expect he is right. LOL
