The Native Americans are shining examples of dignity in the face of discrimination and oppression; they will get their rights, and it will not be through the blood innocent children.
"Surely, if there were a suicide bomber who was Ojibwa, or Lakota, or Ute, we might invoke a million atrocities to justify his acts. But this has not been our way, and will never be our way. A just cause, advanced through unjust means, would forever tarnish us in the eyes of our ancestors, and our descendants."
