"A number of cases of atrocious rape by these men ..."
Your reading comprhension skills are pretty weak. Is English a second language?
Is Lee also a war criminal also since his troops were also raping Confederate women?
No. It was not his policy to direct his men to loot, plunder, murder as a war measure. Please cite such orders if you believe otherwise.
But I post the following as being indicitive of the Yankee/Union sentiments, and of their arresting Confederates for failure to pray for Caesar Lincoln:
"I attended Saint Paul's Church on Sunday morning and when Steward omitted to read the prayer for the President of the United States as required by the church service I arose and respectfully requested him to do so. He paying no attention to my request I again requested him to read the prayer with the same result. Immediately Captain Farnsworth, of the Eighth Illinois Cavalry, who was present and to me an entire stranger, arose and demanded that he should read the prayer. Still refusing Captain Farnsworth ordered his sergeant to arrest and take him to the quarters of Colonel Farnsworth, of the same regiment, which order was immediately executed. Fearing a collision between the congregation ad the military present I immediately directed Captain Farnsworth to hold him only as a state prisoner subject to your order. "

There are innumerable sources that account the planes going into the towers, but there were still only two planes.
"... committing rapes [plural] on the negroes and such like things ..." "... quartered in the negro huts for weeks, debauching the females ... [not a solitary incident]" "A number of cases of atrocious rape by these men ..."
"A number" could be as little as three.

At least I can count and I don't mistake 20 for "thousands".
No. It was not his policy to direct his men to loot, plunder, murder as a war measure. Please cite such orders if you believe otherwise.
A double standard. You say Sherman was a war criminal because there may have been rapes by his men, but somehow Lee isn't a war criminal when his men raped. Lee didn't have time to plunder supplies due to not spending hardly any time in the North. If Lee could've attacked supplies to win the war, he would've.

You're just mad that we crushed the South's little tyrannist dictators:...slaveowners. At least we didn't try to perpetuate the tyranny of slavery. Death to Tyrants!
It seems all three of us have come independently to the same conclusion. Maybe if I translate (courtesy South Park):
When the Marklar seceeded, the Marklar formed a Marklar with the Marklar. This lasted for a few short Marklar, while the Marklar sent Marklar to negotiate the Marklar, the Marklar, and the remainder of the public Marklar. Refusing to negotiate, the Marklar violated the Marklar by attempting reinforcement of the Marklar.
All of Marklar touched off a Marklar that culminated in Marklar storming across the Marklar burning, looting, and raping Marklar they could get their Marklar on.
