If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time destroy slavery, I do not agree with them. My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union.
-Abraham Lincoln
The war was fought over federalism vs sovereign states with slavery thrown in there conveniently as optics. And jews bankrolled both sides.
The jews bankrolled the leadership of both sides, just as they did the American Revolution.
It doesn’t mean the rank and file confederates weren’t true believers who yearned to be free, just that they would be facing major consequences afterward if they didn’t name and expel the jew in the case that they won.
Oh, I know. It's never as simple as it looks from the top down.
