U.S. Civil War?

Why is this period called a Civil War? By definition, a Civil War denotes an attempt by two parties to control the government. Obviously, this was not a Civil War. Some people refer to it as the War of Northern Aggression. In truth, that's what it was, but on a larger scale it was the War for Southern Independence. It was no different from the Revolution, or War for American Independence. The facts are simple. The Radical Republicans (now the Democratic Party), through the election of Abraham Lincoln. threatened the freedoms of the nation, especially in the South. The Southern States agreed that this act was the final stage in a series of political coups to remove power from them. Feeling no longer represented in the government, they seceded in an attempt to form their own government and nation, exactly as the Continental Congress had done to Britain. As for the North, they have no reason to call it a war at all. They never declared war, they fought to save the Union, exactly like the British did. They drew first blood. Ft. Sumter was bloodless, no deaths, and merely an attempt by South Carolina to regain control of their own land. Lincoln had been advised by the SC Gov't. to evacuate the fort in January. It was only attacked after South Carolinians discovered Lincoln's attempt to re-supply the fort via the "Star of the West". When the ship was spotted outside Charleston Harbor, the Rebels opened fire. Lincoln calculated this move, knew the South Carolinians would fire, and thereby provoked them to start of the war. The blood is all on his hands.

Lincoln is glorified as the greatest President behind Washington. In the pages to come, you will soon see what a devious, lying, law-breaking man he really was.
