Hi Hugh
My current analysis is that the civil war never actually ended, but only a cease fire has existed over the years. Now one side has decided to end the ceasefire and resume the conflict until the other side is completely humiliated. The other side doesn’t really want to resume hostilities and has been caught unawares and unprepared to resume these hostilities. Any comments?

Irvin, This is not the resumption of the American Civil War, tho the early targets - Confed. generals, Confed. monuments may have made it so appear. This year they moved quickly from Robert E Lee and PTG Beauregard to Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, founders of this nation, but slave owners. The mobs attacked the Lincoln Memorial in DC, and Lincoln statues in the North, as well as Gen. Grant (hardly a Confed.) In Boston they attacked the plaque to Col. Shaw (Unitarian abolitionist, and officer of the Mass. 54th Reg. in the Civil War, the first Black troops recruited). The mob is attacking America and the West. Andrew Jackson, the hero of New Orleans. Had he lost NO, the treaty might have been revised to give Britain much of the huge Louisiana Terr. The mob, the Dems. hate America. And they hate the West. Columbus made America possible. Now the Ohio city that bears his name is embarrassed, and his statues are under attack there. In this state's capital, Madison, Wisconsin, where a leftwing Dem governor and and even more rad mayor of Madison permitted riots in the area around the state capitol, one wonders how long it will be before the city's name is changed - Madison owned slaves. To be in align with the new mood, I have suggested they replace Madison with: Stalindale, or MaoTown. or IdiAminVille.
The mobs are inspired by a combo of Marxism and Black racism,nationalism, sprinkled with simple crooks and thugs. The mobs were also fueled by the corona virus lockup of healthy young people, bursting out from school closings, sports closings, and the only permissible way to break the lock-downs at home was to partake in the Dem approved "peaceful protests" against police. So the innocents joined the mobilizers and the Dems cheered them on (of course the media did too), and the Republicans tried to ignore the mobs, or the lib Republicans like Romney joined in the mob's procession.
The issue is Western Civ versus multicultural madness, law and order vs. anti-white racism, elevating Black crime and criminals, vs. work and creativity, open borders and special benefits for all newcomers especially illegal ones who refuse to assimilate, vs basic rights and privileges of American citizens.
They are also demanding a new national anthem, like W. Guthrie's This Land is Your Land or Lenon's Imagine. The one we have is difficult to sing and was not officially adopted until the 1930s. Still, why choose an anthem written by a British subject or an American Communist (Guthrie)? I would prefer that we return to the earlier, unofficial anthem, Columbia, the gem of the Ocean.
All the best, Hugh
