U.S. military to stop honoring Confederate history — finally

[Guno צְבִי]

The Defense Department has identified more than 1,100 items that commemorate the Confederacy and has plans for removing or renaming some of them

The Confederate States of America, the short-lived rogue collection of states addicted to slavery and its profits, will finally be put in its place, And a commission that has identified 1,111 items under military control — bases, buildings, streets, signs, and even a floor mat — most certainly does.

The commission is chaired by retired Adm. Michelle Howard, the first Black woman to command a U.S. combat ship, the first Black woman to hold two-star and three-star admiral ranks, and the first Black person and the first woman to serve as vice chief of naval operations, the second-highest-ranking officer in the Navy. Most of the items are spread across 26 states. This includes seven states on the Union side and three that were not yet states at the time of the Civil War.

These symbols don’t exist as a result of accidents or coincidences. Nor were they part of efforts in the immediate wake of the war to “bind up the nation’s wounds,” as President Abraham Lincoln described it. They were created in the early years of the 20th century and remain echoes of a decades-long campaign to recast Confederate history. The real Big Lie, these efforts taught that the Confederacy was a noble “lost cause” attempt to maintain traditional American values, rather than a treasonous insurrection seeking to preserve slavery and the economic engine powered by the forced labor. The commission itself declared, “these names speak far more to the times, places and processes that created them than they do to any actual history of the Civil War, the Confederate insurrection, or our nation’s struggle over slavery and freedom.”

I'm sure the successful military tactics of the Confederate Army are required reading at military academies...just as those of Nazi Germany, the USSR, etc.

The trick is not to worship these folks, being that they were the BAD GUYS,

They say to the victor goes the spoils. High time all this Confederate flag foolishness got the same treatment like current Germany treats Nazi memorabilia.
