IN AMERICA WE HAD SHERMAN’S MARCH TO THE SEA.
But that didn’t matter, because it was our own civil war and not the business of any other country. In Syria, on the other hand ...

“IN AMERICA WE HAD SHERMAN’S MARCH TO THE SEA. But that didn’t matter, because it was our own civil war...”
How many 1000 year-old structures did Sherman destroy?
Besides, who, besides you, says it didn’t matter? Most of us are over the brooding, all caps, stage of mourning. Clearly, you need more time to cycle through the stages of grief.
While you’re taking that time, I invite you to do your homework on the post-Sherman’s March fallout. You’ll find that it did matter to people.
