If the Ike you refer to waged war on innocent civilians - not as collateral casualties, but as primary targets, then he is guilty of the same crime.

It's clear that Ike was targeting the supply sector, just as Sherman was, so do you hate him too? Surely you have an opinion on Ike.

Osama bin Laden waged war on civilians - Do you hate him?

Laden's purpose is to spread the tyranny of his cult and his attacks have no direct military value, and do not serve to save lives in the long run so of course I hate him. Ike's purpose was to defeat dictatorship and his attacks had direct military value and saved lives in the long run so he did right. Sherman's purpose was to save the union, a fringe benefit being the abolition of slavery, his actions had direct military value, and his actions saved lives in the long run so it was good.

Supplies of what - civilians? If Ike waged war on innocent civilians - not as collateral casualties, but as primary targets, then he is guilty of the same crime.

Sherman's [*spit*] purpose was to spread the tyranny of his union cult and his attacks on civilians had no direct military value - were illegal per two Supreme Court decision prior to the war, and did not serve to save lives in the long run. He waged a war like bin Laden - against CIVILIANS, not military targets.
