Are you aware that Lincoln himself favored resettling slaves in Africa with funds raised mainly by selling land in the west? Liberia was actually a successful example of this policy for more than one hundred years if it only could have been promoted on a large enough scale.
I have heard that . Yet Lincoln by his personal order unleashed scores of vicious unscrupulous , dishonorable and murderous generals upon the citizens of the South . He enticed ,recruited and impressed countless immigrants , right off the boats , not even Americans , dressing them up in uniforms of blue and placing Springfields with bayonets in their hands and appointing non-US foreign born mercenary generals over them and set them also loose , to ravage and pillage the South . And in the aftermath if this pillage ,carnage and scorched earth destruction we expect the Southerns to just be “bygones” ? Don’t sneer , it could happen again , In fact it might be happening again . Right down to the masses of foreigners ,enlisted to an out of control and oppressive Federal governments vile causes . History repeats itself . The South shall rise again .
