read the earlier threads on Andersonville.

there was NO INTENTIONAL war crimes committed there. even the US ARMY JAG admits that.

otoh, there were TENS of THOUSANDS of CSA POWs INTENTIONALLY abused/tortured/denied food/denied shelter & clothing/MURDERED by the damnyankees at their many CONCENTRATION CAMPS. (15,000 were MURDERED at PLPOWC alone in about 20 months!)

the US CONGRESS passed a JOINT RESOLUTION, in early 1862,demanding that the "rebel prisoners in our hands" be treated as if they were in the hands of the "savage tribes".

Thank you for proving my point. You keep looking through those one-way glasses my friend.
