The correct answer is B. To move eastern Indian tribes to lands west of the Mississippi

Explanation:

The Indian Removal was a law signed by the Congress of the U.S. on May 28 of 1830, in this act the main purpose was to remove some Indian tribes from their ancestral territory at the east of Mississippi to west territory, more specifically to nowadays Oklahoma territory. This law was quite controversial, considering some tribes did not agree with the relocation, the act was discriminating Native tribes and the relocation had important negative consequences on the tribes, including the death of many of them during the relocation and lost of the tribes' ancestral lands. Considering this, it can be concluded the main reason for the Removal Act in 1830 was "to move eastern Indian tribes to lands west of the Mississippi".

How does John jay expose the hyporcritical nature of slavery in his 1786 quote?
spayn [35]

We perceive that a great breach has been made in the moral and physical systems by the introduction of moral and physical evil; how or why, we know not; so, however, it is, and it certainly seems proper that this breach should be closed and order restored.

That men should pray and fight for their own freedom, and yet keep others in slavery, is certainly acting a very inconsistent, as well as unjust and, perhaps, impious part.

It is much to be wished that slavery may be abolished. The honour of the States, as well as justice and humanity, in my opinion, loudly call upon them to emancipate these unhappy people. To contend for our own liberty, and to deny that blessing to others, involves an inconsistency not to be excused.

The Jews claim that the land dates back to 3,000 years when Jewish kings ruled the regions from Jerusalem. To Palestinians, the land had belonged to them since most, but not all, Jews were driven out around A.D. 135. Islam spread in the 7th century and quickly became the dominant region.
