"Ликбез" от Майкла Бома: американцы не убивали индейцев, а русские убивали

Russians, unlike Americans, participated in the extermination of the indigenous peoples of North America. This was told to the American journalist Michael Bohm.

The constant participant of various talk shows on leading Russian TV channels, American journalist Michael Bohm stated that the extermination of the Indians in America were engaged not Americans, and representatives of European countries, including Russia.

“For 170 years before the formation of the United States — when “Americans” as such was not, strictly speaking, English, Dutch, Spanish and French settlers began to arrive in North America, and there conquer new lands, reported on the BOM page on the social network Facebook. — The British and the Dutch conquered the East coast of America. French — the middle lane of America. The Spaniards — Western part. For the most part that America lived the Indians, and everywhere there were fights between representatives of different European countries and the Indians.”

Speaking further, the American told a Russian, which he knows, also participated in the extermination of the indigenous peoples of America.

“In 1812 the Russians established a fortress “Fort-Ross” on the West coast of America (near San Francisco), which lasted until 1841. How many poor local Indians and Russians were killed, to conquer this American soil? And how many local Eskimos Russian settlers-“conquistadors” were killed when they conquered Alaska in the XVII, XVIII centuries and the early nineteenth century?”, — asks Bohm.
