If Native Americans started bombing cafes, busses, shooting rockets at Phoenix, Tuscon,and Albuquerque, autonomy on the rez would disappear; life on the rez would change for the worse.

Yeah. Life on the rez is bad, but it would be A LOT worse if they started that. Our history with native Americans isn't great, even as recently as Wounded Knee (1970s).

Interesting how we have an actual movement that is peaceful. There are nativist Hawaiians who maintain the US illegally incorporated Hawaii into the USA, and they want to revert to being an independent nation. No bombing buses, or kidnapping people. Theirs is a peaceful (and probably hopeless) crusade. Compare and contrast to Israel/Palestine.
