[QUOTE="Joachim, post: 50439002, member: 237821"] This might be a good time to focus on the war crimes of the United States military that occurred during the War Between The States. In union occupied New Orleans a man named William Mumford lowered an American flag. He was executed for it. Then there are the crimes of General Sherman's army, who went through Georgia committing acts that today would qualify as war crimes and where there were incidents of looting, murdering of civilians and rape. I think people need to concede that many of the north's supposed heroes from that war would be convicted under national law today. There is also the issue of the fact that Lincoln actually personally ordered numerous Confederate captives to be killed because it was a policy in Union prisons to kill Confederate soldiers, something which today would be recognized as a war crime.
