The US government broke all treaties with the American Indian. They viewed the Indian as poor, simple savages and therefore thought it was fine to not honor the treaties. Surely, the ones who negotiated the treaties probably felt they would be honored. It was a case where the US government felt superior and untouchable and they wanted the land and minerals , so they took them.
As a direct quote from Federal Judge Joe Fish, Northern District of Texas: "The United States has violated every single treaty it has made with Indians, and one more time is not going to matter." This is in agreement with Congressional Action, as well as admitted by the US Bureau of Indian Affairs - so it is safe to say at least 4,000 treaties (number of treaties in Cohen's handbook on Federal Indian Law)

How did the US government support white settlement in the West?
The United States government supported this, in that they set up reservation for the Native Americans. They then bought the land from them and promised to protect them. The US government also wrote and signed many treaties to help the Native Americans. Sadly though this didnt last long. Because the settlers wanted the Native Americans land. This caused the Native Americans to fight back. They were fighting not only for their land, but for their resources. But mostly in order to keep their traditions. Thanks I hope that helps!
