yes, there WERE SOME FEW individual crimes against NON-white union soldiers, BUT the OFFICIAL POLICY of the CSA was NEVER to encourage the MURDER/TORTURE/INTENTIONALY ABUSE helpless US POWs.

otoh, the US CONGRESS passed a JOINT RESOLUTION which OPENLY encouraged the abuse,torture,denial of food & shelter,denial of medical attention & other "abuses of the physical bodies of rebel prisoners in our hands".

BIG DIFFERENCE in those 2 situations. one is INDIVIDUAL crimes;the other is OFFICIAL US POLICY!

The resolution being which one, exactly? (So there is no mistake about what you actually mean.)
