He considered legitimate to remove them from the territory since they were not capable of being like the rest of the people.

Step-by-step explanation:

He declared that they were still barbarians and that trying to understand them has been a failure because the government often slaughtered its own policies or they failed. This is why it was acceptable to exclude them from their territories since they were still savages according to him, and the rest of what resembled to the Native Americans is history.
