If you believe ‘FAIRLY WON’ means making war on American Civilians then you have a problem.
Sherman and Grant should have been court martialed for making war on non-combatants and hung.
Amen.
“War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want.”
Major General William Tecumseh Sherman
Agree. For decades, we've been fed the revisionist take on the war of Northern aggression.
Sherman in today's America would have been labeled a fascist, bigot, racist, Nazi.
Now, here we are. Warshington D.C. and the whole cabal screwing up our nation.
Wrong. They were suppressing a rebellion on orders of the President, and approved by congress, and authorized by the laws of the United States and the constitution.
"If the people raise a great howl against my barbarity and cruelty, I will answer that war is war, and not popularity seeking." -- William T. Sherman
Should Dwight Eisenhower and Douglas MacArthur been court-martialed and hung for waging war on non-combatants?
Southerners were pretty clear that they didn't want to be Americans anymore.
We made Grant a two term President !!!
So the people that counted disagree with your extreme position.
