Rapes by Lee's troops were Ok though, huh?

As usual, you're making stuff up again. Close your mouth and maybe the crap will stop flowing long enough to post a coherent response.

Lee condemned criminal acts by his troops; to the point of prosecution and even execution. Sherman looked the other way, and indeed went out of his way to cover for the criminal acts of his men.

This is your hero.

Prove that Sherman Okayed rape. How come there were 350 court-martials for rape in the Union armies, if the generals looked the other way? There were no court-martials for rape in the Confederate armies and according to the letter that I linked earlier, a lot of rapists in the Confederate armies weren't even being held accountable. If anyone was ignoring rape, it was the Confederate generals, it would appear.

This is your hero.

He saved thousands of lives, just as Ike and Treuman did.

Nope. The pressure will build up and it will squirt out of his ears.
