Lieut. Gen. U. S. GRANT,
General-in- Chief:Excerpt:
This question is now directly and barely presented. Either the extermination of the Indian tribes by force or some policy of supporting them by the General Government at places, where, deprived of arms and of the power to do injury or indulge their wandering habits, they can be subsisted and protected and subjected, under the most favorable circumstances, to all the influences of education and Christianity.

Confederate troops raped Confederate women so are you saying that Lee was a bad general? Are you saying that Ike was a bad general since Germany was firebombed?

Many Confederates were not punished when they raped confederate women. Was Lee a bad general then?
