Read my later posts where I was explaining the US perspective in the days before the war started.



I did, but you are suggesting that the Confederates seeking a negotiated settlement for Federal lands was some sort of positive on the part of the Confederacy, as some good-faith effort to prevent bloodshed. The irony becomes apparent when you compare South Carolina's Declaration of Secession. You should read it and then think about what you said. I also don't believe in your ability to accurately summarize any historical matter without your eternal victimization affecting your viewpoint.

I was explaining the Confederate perspective of the matter. I did not give my opinion on rhe right or wrong of it.
