War Crimes Against Southern Civilians
http://www.amazon.com ^ | April 30, 2007 | Walter Cisco

Posted on 08/28/2013 8:03:18 PM PDT by NKP_Vet

This is the untold story of the Union's "hard war" against the people of the Confederacy. Styled the "Black Flag" campaign, it was agreed to by Lincoln in a council with his generals in 1864. Cisco reveals the shelling and burning of cities, systematic destruction of entire districts, mass arrests, forced expulsions, wholesale plundering of personal property, and even murder of civilians. Carefully researched largely from primary sources, this examination also gives full attention to the suffering of Black victims of Federal brutality.

Listen, if you and I can keep an Amazon employee actually employed for 29.5 hours per week, who cares what books he’s loading?

That’s the point. We are brothers. Why in the world are we still kicking each other in the head?

Victimology is the left’s favorite pastime.

Sibling rivalry...

New England clam chowder is good with fried gulf shrimp so it is all rather dumb...

It’s beyond dumb. It’s deliberately destructive.

“There was no point in posting this in the first place.”

I have no dog in this fight; however, I disagree. It is interesting to note that the government involved is the same exact government in place today, operating under the same Constitution, Bill of Rights, court system, Congress, and so on. Consider this before prefacing any comment with ...”well, that can’t happen HERE, because...”

Yes we lost but at the end there were twice as many dead Yankees as Rebels.

So now you're bragging about the killing of Americans? Really?

And no, the previous post to you does not justify your response.

Slavery was a horrendous sin. And the consequences of sin of this magnitude ripples across generations.

I as a Southerner have to disagree with you.

Practically every year there is a theater release movie, OR a tv movie about the evil South, and the saintly North.

Truth is truth, and should be shared whenever it can be.

I’m pretty amazed at the reaction of some to a thread on a Civil War history book.

I imagine DUs reaction would be similar to this history book.

Right. Only a liberal can see slavery as evil.

I’m not a liberal. Slavery is evil.

That is exactly the kind of DU post that I’m talking about.

Out of the blue you post that nonsense to me.

Go over to DU and post a thread simply titled, “Southern States” with no comment or article, no subject, and watch the Pavlovian rabid dogs, jump on the thread.

When a thread has been so hijacked and killed off as this one, the mods should step in.
