For the government that believed in slavery, Conscription is not hypocrisy. For the government which claimed to be against slavery, conscription is slavery and that government is a hypocrite.

Oh barf.

Also, those defending themselves from aggression and invasion should get more leeway than those who are instituting the aggression and invasion.

We're talking about motivation for those fighting, not for those forcing them to fight.

I would forgive the Poles for being brutal in putting down the Nazi invaders too.

Yeah, and I imagine you call it the War of Polish Aggression, too.

I guess you need to learn about European history too. It was the Nazis who invaded Poland. The NAZIS were the aggressive party invading another country. It would therefore be called the War of NAZI aggression.

The Nazis also used made up pretexts to invade other countries. Maybe they got the idea from Lincoln? They probably saw a lot to admire in the way he ran the country.
