And what was the probability that they would be resisted?

Since Davis wanted a war I'd say 100%.

When this thread started Sherman had just taken Savannah. By now Sherman had defeated McLaws at River Bridge and was about 70 miles northwest of Charleston. Will you all still be fighting this out come Bentonville in March?

At least you are honest about the 100%, even if you did put in your little bit of propaganda.

Funny how everyone wants to blame Davis for something Lincoln started with his warships.

Without the warships showing up, Anderson was going to evacuate the fort at noon on April 15th.

Anderson himself said the warships were going to cause a war, and he was absolutely right.
