But once the rebels fired on Old Glory, it galvanized the nation, one author has suggested, much in the same way that the attack on Pearl Harbor did.

So you think it is okay to intentionally provoke and permit another Pearl Harbor if that is what it takes to get us into a desired war?

You surely are capable of better reasoning that this.

President Lincoln didn't expect such, and nothing like the attack on PH occured. No one was even killed in the Fort Sumter bombardment.

Despite what you and others say, President Lincoln expected the rebellion to collapse.

So you believe that Pearl Harbor was the United State's fault?
