Sherman. Being a southerner my feeling were clouded by Atlanta and the March to the Sea. In recent years As I’ve learned more about the man I’ve come to respect him more. One remark he made stayed with me. When commenting about the leaders the war produced he stated that the most outstanding figure either side produced was “Nathan Bedford Forrest” I was shocked in light of the mud cast at General Forrest these days.

Like the looks of your blog and adding you to my blogroll at TOTUS.

Wm. Sherman, SHERMAN: RACIST, TERRORIST, MONSTER, rebuking his comments.

Personally, even if I didn’t hold the strong pro-white views that I do, I could find little wrong with Sherman’s statements, keeping in mind that, in the day that they were spoken, such sentiments were relatively common. Indeed, for those who have taken a look at Lincoln, we see many similar comments, such as him having said, “I shan’t tear my shirt if he sends a ni99er,” in response to the president of Haiti wanting to send a black delegate to the White House (which at the time was not permitted). And, Lincoln’s speeches were often filled with comments that even most pro-white activists on Stormfront are hesitant to say, such as, in a multicultural society, “the superior position [should be] assigned to the white race.” Many in the South’s past–and the North, too, for that matter, who largely elected Lincoln–would have agreed with such sentiments.

Keeping that in mind, I find Stang’s writings a bit bothersome, especially with his attacks on “racism,” etc.”

Having reviewed the Stang article (linked inside), I heartily agree. There is more at both links. I cannot locate my own files on Sherman’s dealing with the jews (ordering them to cease cotton buying, etc. in certain areas) and you know how google is about showing true results. There is another article on Sherman which states,

“Sherman himself certainly did not believe that “each man is as good as another.” For example, in 1862 Sherman was bothered that “the country” was “swarming with dishonest Jews” (see Michael Fellman, Citizen Sherman, p. 153). He got his close friend, General Grant, to expel all Jews from his army. As Fellman writes, “On December 17, 1862, Grant . . . , like a medieval monarch . . . expelled ‘The Jews, as a class,’ from his department.” Sherman biographer Fellman further writes that to Sherman, the Jews were “like niggers” and “like greasers (Mexicans) or Indians” in that they were “classes or races permanently inferior to his own.”

Rusty, you should know the last civil war battle (won by the Confederates) at Palmetto Hill, near Boca Chica Beach in Brownsville.
