Though many claims are disputed, some historians contend that European settlers and the US government implemented a series of actions with the ultimate goal of the total genocide of native people. Some estimates go as high as 100,000,000 victims. Methods for the removal of native Americans included deliberate infecting natives with European diseases they had no immunity for, military attacks on native villages, bounties for native scalps, forced removal from their homelands, and forced sterilization. In 2000, the director of the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs apologized for participating in the ethnic cleansing of native Americans.

Were the Kurds brought to justice for their role in the Armenian Genocide?

There have never been any international criminal trials or civil trials concerning the Armenian Genocide since Turkey has effectively prevented many major countries from recognizing the genocide. So, no conspirator in the genocide, of which a large minority were Kurds, has ever been brought to justice. However, unlike the Turks, several Kurds have apologized and sought forgiveness for the crimes of the Armenian Genocide or have been active in promoting the recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
