The 'victors' always manage to rewrite history and to a large degree the losers, too. Japan has removed all mention of the atrocities perpetrated by their troops such as The Rape Of Nanjing, their beheading of prisoners, etc. etc. Now our civil war was fought for one reason and one reason only, the noble pursuit of abolishing slavery. It's almost totally untrue, but heh what does that matter?
