And what is condemning only one side for actions that both sides engaged in. Again, it isn't the fact that civilians suffered and towns were burned that bothers you, it's the fact that southern civilians suffered and southern towns burned. You couldn't care less that southern soldiers burned and looted because they did it against Northern civilians - although on occasion their behavior towards their own civilians weren't much better.

To the contrary, as any such incident violates the just waging of a war. My concern however is with persons such as yourself who attempt to dismiss the far more extensive atrocities of one side by claiming "both sides did it." Such an argument simply doesn't fly.
