Weird comment. The USA didn't treat the Indians with white gloves but there are surely more egregious examples in history. Vlad the impaler? Ivan the terrible? Various African warlords?

How many Indians were there before Columbus? How many remains? Compare it with the numbers for the examples you provided.

You have to separate diseases from other things. The mongols weren't responsible for the black death, plagues in Europe killed a lot of people.

Diseases is the official excuse for the genocide. See how long it holds if you start asking questions and looking at the numbers.
