I don't think you are grasping my point. Lincoln deliberately sent belligerents to Ft. Sumter to start a war. He did this after explicitly telling the Confederates that he would send no belligerents, just supplies. They were at a rendezvous point 10 miles away from Ft. Sumter when the conflict began. I have little doubt the Confederates knew the flotilla had sailed, and knew they were carrying war material and soldiers on board.
Lincoln was going to cause the war one way or the other.
Your point is the same point that you post time after time. It's all Lincoln's fault, the Confederates were just following the Declaration of Independence, if the Union wanted peace then they would have just shrugged off that whole Fort Sumter bombardment thing, and so forth and so on. I didn't think he held water in the past, it's still leaking like a sieve now, so I'll just let you find someone who hasn't heard it all before and try and convert them.
