No one deserved the War less than the Poles South nor suffered more from naked brutal Northern aggression. IMHO.

There, fixed it.

The suffering of the Poles were incomparably greater. Besides the South arguably initiated the War by firing on Fort Sumnter.

As you know, I am not unsympathetic to the Lost Cause (I think the Parcular Institution was moribund, regardless) but the no one would have initiated the Civil War had they been able to foresee the consequences.

Why bring up the "civil war", or the "war of northern aggression" as you and my southern buddy always puts it as if I, a "Yankee", started it?

It isn't the subject at hand.
