Mr. Cisco's flawlessly documented expose of Union Army war crimes rips the carefully constructed facade off Lincoln's "Army of Emancipators." Far from being an army of liberators, Union troops burned, raped, ravaged, and terrorized civilians from east to west. The brutality long overshadowed by federally-sponsored propaganda of Andersonville and Fort Pillow is at last revealed by newspaper accounts, letters, and diaries, many from Washington's own National Archives.

This country isn’t torn up enough. Let’s tear off 150 year old scabs. The more we hurt the better.

In as much as I, as a Southerner, appreciate the acknowledgment of Yankee crimes against a people simply seeking freedom from an ever growing Federal Bureaucracy (sounds familiar eh...) I say let sleeping dogs lie. The North is doing enough to itself now, their smart folks are moving South and at the rate we are going the future of American Ideals may well rest on what was once the Confederacy. Irony indeed.

I am a southerner, and I argue pro-South on these threads, however, I also believe there is no civility in war, no “war crimes” possible. War is Hell. If you don’t like war then do not wage war, and you had best fight to win.
I fully believe the north provoked the fight. I fully believe the south was prepared to engage in war as well if need be. But again, war is a no holds barred fight to exterminate the enemy. It was a war.

I’m pretty amazed at the reaction of some to a thread on a Civil War history book.
I imagine DUs reaction would be similar to this history book.

When a thread has been so hijacked and killed off as this one, the mods should step in.

What was it that one Yankee Illinois Colonel said before the Battle of Shiloh? Something to the effect that if the men knew they were fighting to free the slaves they'd be lucky to get two companies on the field.

I'm watching storm clouds gather over my country as I type this. We need to leave the "War of Northern Aggression," or "Civil War," in the past. We must heal our wounds quickly.
We might not get another chance at liberty this century...
