Jackson wanted the Indian tribes, that continued to live in the eastern states and territories of the United States, to move west, beyong Mississippi, out of the way of expanding white settlement. Whites were coming to view Native Americans simply as "savages," not only uncivilized but uncivilizable. They believed they should not be expected to live in close proximity to the tribes. The Indian Removal was because whites feared that continued contact between the expanding white settlements and the Indians would produce endless conflict vand violence. ALso because of White's insatiable desire for territory. The Tribes possessed valuable land in the path of expanding white settlement. Whites wanted it.
