The difference between those other cultures and the Confederacy are so numerous it would take a whole thread to lay them out. Suffice it to say one serious reason is they were fighting for their homes and not military supremacy over another nation. They just wanted to be left alone.
Being burried under an American flag with military honors is generally not considered "cursing" someone except in the bizarro world of those who seem to despise America and the American flag
To me it is when they fought with their last breath against the oppressive government of the north. I think someone should buy a plot of land for these brave men and proudly fly the National flag of the Confederacy over their graves
Trust me, by the time the Americans got to Okinawa, the Japanese were fighting for their homes. And by the time the Americans started moving through France and Italy towards Germany, the Germans were fighting for their homes, too. That's when the Germans started fielding all sorts of creative rockets and aircraft.
They just wanted to be left alone.
I think "just" is stretching it a bit.

Neither of us have any way of knowing whether they would have embraced the Union or would have continued to curse it until their dying day had they lived to see the end of the war. To assume that they would have remained "eternally" anti-Union may or may not be what they would have wanted. We just don't know. Given the demeanor of the Confederate veterans that I've seen in the pictures and films of the Gettysburg reunions, however, I get the impression that many Confederate veterans were not nearly as bitter against the Union as many Freepers currently are.
