Correct. I and others call it the War for Southern Independence for a reason. It was no more a civil war than what went on from 1775-1783. I am impressed that the author was not only fair but highly accurate in his historical characterizations of the two sides. That’s sadly, a rare thing nowadays.
This time, I could see some states seceding or even some areas of states as a seceding state had areas secede from it to remain in. I think that would be the best outcome. I cannot see another major armed conflict. We hold too much territory, are too numerous and too well armed for the Left to overcome.
Harrumph! You DO mean: THE WAR OF NORTHERN AGGRESSION don't you!?
