“The revisionists tend to leave out the atrocities committed by the invading union armies.”

That’s a fact. The history books used in the public schools never mention the Yankee tactic of forced starvation enacted upon the Southern civilian population. They never mention the few reported incidents of starving people being reduced to cannibalism. But, the victors get to write the history books, so it’s no wonder some things were ignored or glossed over.

The "North" (The northern states from the Civil War plus the 3 west-coast states)no longer has the will to fight. 100,000 armed and determined men could overthrow this government if they were US Citizens. Of course invaders would be crushed.
