When you start a war if would be nice if you could know the outcome ahead of time, but you can't. The south lost their rebellion and you're bitter about it 140 years later. Germany and Japan lost their wars and they seem to have accepted the outcome without the bitterness prevalent in people like you. 'Sore loser' seems to be the only appropriate description.
You don't read my documentary posts, but you post stuff like that to me. Who are you, Peck's bad boy of the Internet?
I just explained to you -- very nicely, because you refused to read that historian I posted -- explained to you that Americans don't like tyranny and don't sit still for it, unlike German and Japanese, who at the end of World War II simply exchanged one set of masters for another.
The North started the war and won it for their own profit and political power. It was a murder-robbery. And yet you counsel us to become Buddhists and suffer in silence what you wouldn't -- an implicit insult of the first magnitude, to go along with all the other ones you mumble through your keyboard, up there in thoroughly rotten Land 'o Lincoln, where the GOP can't even field a candidate for the Senate anymore, but you can still pretend to look down your nose at the South.
Our votes, money, and moxie brought the GOP back to the majority in Congress, behind Newt Gingrich of Georgia and Trent Lott of Mississippi, and you can't stand it.
I think that is your problem with the South. That, and the fact that you know we remember, and we won't forget what your plaster saint did to the South.
