Back in the late 1800s and early 1900s it used to be a common thing for either people who had fought in the War of Northern Aggression or someone in their families, to write accounts of their activities while in that War and have these printed up in limited editions, mostly for succeeding generations of their families and maybe a few close friends.

What Made America Great Is On The Way Out | revisedhistory

Yet, for all of that, he did not deal with the real problem. Our real problem in this country is not economic, it is theological. All of our other problems flow out from our theological problems, which started early and continued often.

Greg Evensen — Civil War Has Begun: America is Fatally Deceived

June 20, 2012 Leave a comment

The war of northern aggression began forming in the 1840’s as the government even then, moved further and further away from a constitutional republic. Vitriolic debate about growing, indifferent central taxation coursed through the halls of Congress in the 1850’s. Dire threats were taking shape by 1858, and there was no turning back by 1860.

For those who understand our Republic and the efforts to sustain freedom, in spite of all out war waged upon it then and since the end of the last internal struggle, the federal economic/banking/political/internationalist/police state has had but one goal. That is, the internal destruction of the sovereign states and the imposition of a socialist government tyranny under the ongoing protection of the federal court system and the threat of military intervention to achieve the final dark victory against the American people.

Prison Planet.com » Hubris as the Evil Force in History

June 13, 2012 2 comments

I have always been intrigued by the Battle of Bull Run, the opening battle of the US Civil War, known to southerners as the War of Northern Aggression. Extreme hubris characterized both sides, the North before the battle and the South afterwards.

Republican politicians and their ladies in their finery road out to Manassas, the Virginia town through which the stream, Bull Run, flowed, in carriages to watch the Union Army end the “Southern Rebellion” in one fell swoop. What they witnessed instead was the Union Army fleeing back to Washington with its tail between its legs. The flight of the northern troops promoted some southern wags to name the battle, the Battle of Yankee Run.

The outcome of the battle, left the South infected with the hubris that had so abruptly departed the North. The southerners concluded that they had nothing to fear from cowards who ran away from a fight. “We have nothing to worry about from them,” decided the South. It was precisely at this point that hubris defeated the South.

Prison Planet.com » Spy Drone Almost Causes Mid Air Collision With Jet Over Denver

May 17, 2012 1 comment

A mystery object, thought to be a military or law enforcement drone, flying in controlled airspace over Denver almost caused a catastrophic mid air crash with a commercial jet Monday.

The pilot of the Cessna jet radioed air traffic controllers to warn them that “A remote controlled aircraft” had flown past his plane far too close for comfort.

“Something just went by the other way … About 20 to 30 seconds ago. It was like a large remote-controlled aircraft.” the pilot said in the transmission that was captured on the live air traffic audio website liveatc.net.

The craft was reported as being about 8,000 feet above sea level, or about 2,800 feet above the ground, at the time the pilot reported the seeing it. It did not show up on radar.

The type of drones used by NATO typically fly at 10,000 feet and below. Other tactical military drones can fly up to 18,000 feet.

When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks — beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work — that might seem to have been news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper. But it wasn’t.

I Think There Are A Few Confederates In The Crib | revisedhistory

May 16, 2012 1 comment

by Al Benson Jr.

Over the years I have written articles for several blog spots and web sites which have elicited me email that I can only describe as “highly uncomplimentary” in nature. Years ago, one writer accused me of writing some of what I wrote because I was “angry about integration.”

Sorry to disappoint him, but I grew up in the North, lived there most of my life, and always attended government schools that were integrated. I never thought about that subject one way or the other. The same writer then went on to complain that he felt I was probably “intolerant of Cajuns” because, after all, David Duke didn’t like them. Actually, I have some friends that are Cajuns, and quite frankly, I couldn’t care less what David Duke thinks about anything.

I have never based my opinions of people on what David Duke may or may not have thought. I can remember, after reading some of these diatribes directed at me I scratched my head and asked myself “where do these people get this stuff?” I continue to find it interesting that while so many liberals and “progressives” (I’ll be polite and not call them socialists) prattle on endlessly about “diversity” they seem to be obsessed with the race question and everything in the world revolves around that for them.

I have found that those who accuse me of that old Marxist bugagoo “racism” seem to think of little else themselves except race. They just might be more guilty of racism than me, only their form of racism is labeled as “multi-culturalism.”

Yet another writer once informed that that he was enthralled that “your kind are dying out.” There’s that “liberal love” showing itself again. The idea here was, I suppose, that when all the old men my age are dead and gone there will be no one left to carry a Confederate flag or to put a battle flag bumper sticker on the back of his car or pickup truck. There will, supposedly, be no one left to defend Confederate history or culture. At that point the millennium can be ushered in immediately–the year of jubilo will have arrived and the St. Andrews Cross can finally be replaced with the Hammer and Sickle with a picture of Obama in the upper left hand corner. I hate to have to be the one to burst this particular writer’s bubble, but I have stunning news for this reverse racist. My children were home schooled. I taught them their history and I was pretty fussy about what I used. Although there wasn’t as much good material around then as there is now, there was some, and my kids were taught to respect, honor and revere Southern culture, even though at the time we resided in the North.

Now my daughter and her husband are home schooling their six children, and they are being taught the same things I taught her.

Another Phase of Ongoing “Reconstruction” | revisedhistory

March 17, 2012 Leave a comment

by Al Benson Jr.

The so-called “reconstruction” period in the South after the War of Northern Aggression set in motion an insidious trend that has yet to be reversed in this country. That avoidable war brought monstrous federal intrusion into the private lives of individuals on a heretofore undreamed level–as it was intended to. “Reconstruction” in the South set up virtual military dictatorships in all of the (still un-surrendered) Confederate States. The banner of what today is referred to as “reverse racism” was raised atop the federal flagpole and flown on high. It has yet to be taken down.

This trend toward centralized pre-eminence (the state as god) has never been reversed. Several years ago my family and I took a trip and on the way back home we visited the National Historical Park at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. At that site the town has been in the process of being reconstructed (no pun intended) so that it will eventually appear as it did when abolitionist and terrorist John Brown first visited it. It would seem that those doing this, the National Park Service, I think, must approve of his terrorist tactics, as long as they were aimed at the South. Many claim that Harpers Ferry has been turned into a shrine for Brown, and I don’t doubt that this is the objective of all this work. Interestingly enough, they filmed segments of the movie Gods and Generals in Harpers Ferry.

While on our visit there, we chanced to visit the building that housed the Provost Marshall’s office. A lady there, dressed in the costume of the day (1859) explained to the visitors that, during the War of Northern Aggression (she didn’t use that term) Harpers Ferry was under federal jurisdiction and was, therefore, under the control of the Provost Marshall. When this lady explained what powers this man had, I could not help thinking that the Provost Marshall was, for all intents and purposes, the local federal dictator. As I pondered how the War had paved the way for future federal dictatorships–a vivid picture of the Supreme Court suddenly flashed through my mind.

Federal Precedence Over The States | revisedhistory

March 14, 2012 Leave a comment

by Al Benson Jr.

Reviewing the infamous 14th Amendment in a nutshell, we can see that it accomplished certain ends that were entirely consistent with Northern revolutionary aims for both the War of Northern Aggression and for the revolutionary period after that war. We might as well get used to referring to the war as a revolution, for, in truth, it was the real American Revolution. It was a revolution in which God-given liberties were exchanged for “privileges and immunities” granted by an all-powerful federal government in Washington–the same as today.

After the shooting phase of that revolution was over, the United States played the part of Esau on a national scale. We had traded our God-given rights for a mess of federal pottage, and now we weep, as did Esau, because we do not have God’s blessing. We don’t have that blessing now because, in our apostasy, we don’t deserve it now.

Instead of enjoying God’s blessing, we now labor under such apostate vehicles as Thaddeus Stevens’ inglorious 14th Amendment.

I have heard conservatives and patriots defend the 14th Amendment and I can only wonder what public brain laundry they were “educated” in. How many realize that the 14th Amendment redefined citizenship in this country? Up until the War, a man was a citizen of the United States due to being first a citizen of a particular state. A man was a U.S. citizen because he was first and foremost a citizen of Texas or Louisiana, or New Jersey. His state citizenship gave him status as a U.S. citizen.

After the adoption of the 14th Amendment, however, a man became foremost a citizen of the United States. His state citizenship was, to all intents and purposes, secondary at best and beneath notice at worst. This and the mindset it produced was consistent with Northern revolutionary aims and opened the door for future federal intervention in the various states, in areas the federal government had no business being in, such as education, and today, health care and oversight of school lunches and all manner of programs so dear the the hearts of those who run the Nanny State.

The Reddest of the Red | revisedhistory

August Willich

Image via Wikipedia

The title of this article is what August von Willich was called by many in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he was the editor of a radical, far-left German newspaper. He had settled in this country in 1853 after fleeing Europe because of his participation in the 1848 socialist revolutions there.

He was also called “the communist with a heart.” If you want to know what a “communist with a heart” looks like, hunt up an old photo of “Uncle Joe” Stalin or that gentle old “agrarian reformer” Mao Tse Tung and read about the millions they slaughtered. That’s “communism with a heart.”

Willich was an officer in the Prussian army when he chanced to meet that beneficent reformer, Karl Marx. Shortly after that Willich became what one web site called a “Marxian socialist.” Another web site listed him as a “convinced republican.” Seems a bit contradictory until you understand how the term “republican” is used by Communists. By Communist definition a republic is “a collectivist, totalitarian state dependent on and subservient to the Soviet Union, Red China, or other Communist power center.” Now admittedly that is a modern definition given the countries mentioned, but it fits. This is how Communists define a “republican”—someone subservient to their wishes. If you want to check as to where this definition comes from check out Amazon.com and see if you can find a book called A Communese-English Dictionary written by Professor Roy Colby.

RE: Friedrich Engels and the Forty-eighters…~ revisedhistory…

Engels in 1868

Image via Wikipedia

This is one of those nagging little questions the “history” books will never bother to answer, not even address, if their authors can avoid it.

Fully 95% of the information dealing with the “Forty-eighter” socialists involvement in the Union army and the early Republican Party has been carefully swept into a nice, neat little pile and quietly dumped down the memory hole.

It is fervently hoped by most public educators that most students will continue on in their programmed ignorance, not even knowing in what century the War of Northern Aggression was fought in, nor what the real issues were.

That way none of the educrats parading as historians will ever have to answer any embarrassing questions. But, here and there, some little tidbit, like a dust bunny caught in the breeze, manages to avoid the memory hole and comes back to haunt the educrats.

Years ago, when researching for our book Lincoln’s Marxists I came across an interesting quote from Friedrich Engels that was noted in his biography, Friedrich Engels written by Gustav Mayer and published back in 1936 by Alfred A. Knopf, New York.

Whatever else he was, Engels was a keen observer and Mayer noted his comments regarding the two armies, Northern and Southern, at the beginning of the War. Engels had observed that: “…at first neither side had a real army, and their was an appalling lack of trained officers; and (as Engels pointed out) had it not been for the experienced soldiers who entered America after the European revolution–especially from Germany–the organization of the Union army would have taken still longer than it did.” Stop and analyze that statement.

Some have analyzed the number of men in the Union army at the start of the War to be around 15,000 men, coming from all over the country.

When the Southern states legally seceded many of those men went south to fight for their states. Thus the size of the Union army, not large to begin with, was further reduced. It has been estimated that between 4-5000 Forty-eighter socialists fled to this country as their revolutionary activities in Europe started to wind down. Not all ended up being soldiers, but a lot did.

What Engels was telling us is that, at the start of the War, the backbone of the Union army was the Forty-eighter socialists! Now that’s from an original source who was around at the time. Maybe Engels…..

A portrait of Karl Marx.

Image via Wikipedia

by Al Benson Jr.It should come as no surprise to those who understand the rationale for government or public schooling that the teaching of real American history is not something that has a real high priority.

In most cases, what passes for “history” today in public schools is little more than politically correct propaganda that reeks of multiculturalism, diversity, environmentalism and a host of other “isms” that have nothing to do with accurate history and everything to do with making sure students never come close to the real truth.

Utopia? Hardly ~ “Disturbingly, the man who warned of an American Napoleon became the American Napoleon.”

November 20, 2011 3 comments

…..Disturbingly, the man who warned of an American Napoleon became the American Napoleon.

Which brings me to a personal confession: Joe Sobran has softened my thinking on Lincoln. When I came to study the Civil War, and study it in-depth, over eight years, it occurred to me that, truly, the conflict is more properly named the War for Southern Independence.

The Northern view of the war which I had been spoon-fed in school parrots the earlier English view of the colonial (American) War of Independence — right down to laughing at the notion that the relevant rebels could possibly claim to be fighting for freedom, merely because of the issue of slavery. By the way, the English figured things out the second time around — and rooted for the Confederacy. In that regard, see Sheldon Vanauken‘s The Glittering Illusion.

Anti-Establishment History

Anti-Establishment History:

By Al Benson Jr. Book reviews are something I have enjoyed reading and writing over the years, although I don’t consider myself especially good at writing them. On and off folks have sent me copies of their books to review and when I get one that looks like a good read I try to take the time to do a reading and review that I can hopefully get published somewhere to help them out.

The book Donnie Kennedy and I have recently had published by Pelican Publishing Co., “Lincoln’s Marxists,” has gotten a couple good reviews on Amazon.com which I enjoyed reading. We recently had another review of our book that was somewhat less than everything you could hope for, but, given the nature of the subject, I guess that is to be expected. The review was published by an outfit called Book News Inc.

http://www.booknews.com

which is out of Portland, Oregon. The reviewer majors on the minor of the two different names Donnie and I give to the “late unpleasantness.” He says we “argue between themselves over whether the US Civil War should be called The War of Southern Independence or the War of Northern Aggression.”

I don’t ever recall an argument between us over this and the two names are not mutually exclusive of one another. The “War of Southern Independence” most certainly…………..

LINCOLN’S MARXISTS by Al Benson, Jr. and Walter Kennedy

August 28, 2011 Leave a comment

…It seems to this reader that the Benson and Kennedy book of truth was designed to be read and studied by folks with above average acumen– by men and women who. once informed, once awakened to the truth, will dedicate themselves to spreading their knowledge far and wide, enabling the non-readers to understand just how the lies of our past have been to the detriment of our America, and how how the lies have been perpetuated by fanatically impassioned, “greedy for power” Americans.

The readers should help others understand how the Communist initiated lies have harmed us, harmed our American Republic, shredded our U.S. Constitution and now threaten the very tomorrows of all living Americans and all yet to be born.

We have been virtually enslaved because of Marxist lies. We have progressive Income Tax, Government control of the education of our young (brainwashing), redistribution of the wealth–from each according to his ability to each according to his need, taxing on anything that moves or does not, a central bank–a private one disguised as a Federal one, etc., etc., etc.–all of these are Communist creations…

Will the Real Lincoln Please Stand Up?

July 25, 2011 2 comments

Professor Owens reviewed The Real Lincoln, by Tom DiLorenzo, in The Washington Times on May 4, 2002.

The book review does not withstand reasonable scrutiny.

First, Owens begins by describing the book as “a rehash of Confederate propaganda spiced up with touches of Marxist economic analysis.”

I think that someone has been watching Emeril.

Clearly, however, this is not a neutral or friendly review by Professor Owens. Ignoring the fact that one might accuse Owens of rehashing Northern propaganda (and spicing it up with touches of mercantilism and John Maynard Keynes), it is both highly amusing and distressing to see Owens accuse Tom DiLorenzo of applying “Marxist economic analysis” to the life of Lincoln.

Giving Owens the benefit of the doubt (and making his argument for him; generally, this is a no-no, but I am striving to be fair), it would appear that Owens refers to DiLorenzo as a “Marxist” because: (1) DiLorenzo (God forbid) considers the economic causes of the War Between the States; and (2) Marxists have considered the economic causes of the War Between the States. So DiLorenzo must be applying Marxist economic analysis.

No. Wrong. Such a charge of guilt by association fails to convince.

Worse, in making such a charge, Owens ignores the fact that DiLorenzo is a prominent expositor of free market economics, by which I mean genuine capitalist, laissez faire, free market economics, as opposed to the “free and regulated” baloney so common in the mainstream today, which is not free market economics at all.

Owens calling DiLorenzo a Marxist is like Owens calling Babe Ruth a figure skater. It is simply a silly characterization.

(By the way, in the last paragraph of the review, Owens mentions that DiLorenzo “writes from a libertarian perspective.” How this is supposed to fit with the earlier charge that DiLorenzo is a Marxist, Owens does not elucidate. And how convenient that the Marxist charge comes in the first paragraph, and the libertarian comment comes at the end).

…It seems that, under the Articles of Confederation, there were states rights, as each state was considered sovereign and independent. However, with the ratification of the new constitution, that seems to have disappeared.

Historian Clarence Carson has noted that, regarding the Articles of Confederation:

“This bent, or tradition can be traced to many sources. Americans were, above all, a people of the book–the written word–the Bible. There was the Puritan idea, too, of the Covenant, an agreement between man and man and between man and God…Colonists had drawn their own political agreements, such as the Mayflower Compact and the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut…Once the colonies had broken away from England, the only historical allegiances that remained were to the states and localities…

At any rate, there should be no doubt that the government of the United States under the Articles of Confederation was brought into being by the states.”Some delegates saw the new Constitution as potentially tyrannical and refused to sign it. George Mason of Virginia was unwilling to sign.

The major objection was that it did not contain a bill of rights and there were objections in several state conventions to ratification being enacted without such being made part of the new document.

Patrick Henry argued, and rightfully so, in the light of history, that a specific bill of rights was essential. He observed that governments regularly and automatically assumed powers that were not prohibited to them. Can anyone in our day deny the truth of this? In fact, in our day, our own government regularly usurps powers denied to it and the courts ignore the whole situation, giving the executive and legislative branches a wink and a nod as our rights are stolen.

Added to all this was the problem of differing views of the Constitution, which seems to have been a major problem back before the War of Northern Aggression….

The Lincoln Myth, Slavery and The Confederate Purpose & Message!…

March 1, 2011 Leave a comment
Dear Brethren (hundreds bcc herein), 

 

csacommand@windstream.net 

The Lincoln Myth, Slavery and The Confederate Purpose & Message!

For 20 years, the Confederate Society of America has been telling you what you will see and hear herein that Fox news is only now bringing to ‘light’. (please watch the you-tube link herein)
Why is Lincoln & the REAL reasons surrounding the Confederacy’s origin & purpose, only now being visited, approached & raised when heretofore it was prevented from ever being heard or remotely taught in the American classroom?
The answer to that question is simple-  because this Federal Government has gotten away with wholesale demagoguery disguised as ‘democracy’ while growing itself into a larger than life Leviathan at the expense of every Man, Woman & Child in this Country while systematically subverting your liberty, freedom’s & stealing YOUR money in the process.
They used the mantra of Civil Rights to create a ‘Social Welfare’ state that enabled them to further develop & procure a Political Ideology that has everything to do with the establishment of a
Global Oligarch and absolutely NOTHING to do with the simplicity of the Republic we once were & the Individuality & Sovereignty once associated with it.
The TRUTH can No longer be cleverly hidden or altered any more and the real reasons surrounding the ‘so-called’ American Civil War had to come to light— & just as it was predicted by
President Jefferson Davis of the Confederate Republic long ago.
The economic depravity being realized, felt and witnessed by every man, woman & child within America today, is the direct result caused by the creation of the Federal Reserve System and Banks that has effectively transferred via legal theft,  our Tax money’s from their intended use by the U.S. Treasury, and into the hands of private bankers and International profiteers.
The American people have been lied to by this Federal Oligarchy, deliberately mis-educated and lead down a ‘garden path’ that has stripped everyone of their money, liberty & freedom’s.
This Federal Government has usurped all that we were to have been through the designed introduction & alteration of our political, economic & cultural basis at various junctures in our History—beginning with the Reconstruction of the South’s Confederacy in 1865 which was truly the beginning of the Political Reconstruction of this entire Republic.
It would be followed with the Economic Reconstruction (the creation of the Federal Reserve System in 1913) and the Cultural Reconstruction in the 1960′s that used Civil Rights to cloak all that was in play— particularly the Revised Immigration Act of 1965 that was the real sleeping serpent in the closet that put the Feds ‘over the top’.
In the Real, Root Cause & Purpose of the Confederate Cause, lays the Truth and the Salvation for this Republic!
If you come to understand why we Confederates fought, you might stand a chance of saving yourselves, your family’s and your children.
The War for Southern Independence was fought NOT because of Slavery, but because we Confederates saw ALL that would come to pass that each of YOU are seeing & realizing today.
As such, anything remotely associated with the word Confederate has been so demonized and deliberately mis-portrayed that any attempt by us that literally were pleas to you to
LISTEN TO WHAT WE WERE SAYING, was vanquished by the very same system & people that are destroying YOU today.
I will say it again— the majority of the Founding Fathers were Confederates.
They wrote YOUR U.S. Constitution and Declaration of Identity/Independence.
Do YOU think that they would have taken such leave of their minds only 70 years after they were written to fight a War over a SINGLE issue?

General Forrest License Plate in Mississippi

February 24, 2011 1 comment

Union Gen. William T. Sherman said of Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, “After all, I think Forrest as the most remarkable man our ‘Civil War’ produced on either side.”It’s been reported that the Mississippi Division of Sons of Confederate Veterans wants to sponsor a series of state-issued license plates to mark the 150th anniversary of the “War Between the States” including one honoring Gen. Forrest.

Some are urging Governor Barbour to deny this request because they believe Forrest led the Ku Klux Klan after the War Between the States. General Forrest not only denied being a member but was in fact responsible for getting the KKK disbanded.Some even falsely blame Forrest for the Fort Pillow Massacre even though a Union investigation cleared him.

Forrest’s speech during a meeting of the “Jubilee of Pole Bearers” is a story that should be told. Gen. Forrest was the first white man to be invited by this group which was a forerunner of today’s Civil Right’s group. A reporter of the Memphis Avalanche newspaper was sent to cover the event that included a Southern barbecue supper.

No Surrender For The Confederate States of America…

This is a subject never really touched upon in the history books. They just sort of slide over it and hope no one will ever take the trouble to check this out.

After having read somewhat in this area I thought it was something we needed to consider and be aware of. Will the South rise again–or yet? At this point I don’t know if it will help to save your Confederate money, but, as a collector’s item at this time, it is worth more than the Yankee federal reserve notes you use to pay for it.

No Surrender For The Confederate States of America

Posted Today at 12:53 AM

By Al Benson Jr.

Back in the mid-1990s I came across a book by Clifford Dowdey called The History of the Confederacy–1832-1865. It was an interesting book, and though I don’t know if I agreed with everything Mr. Dowdey said, I did agree with the majority of it. And, toward the end of the book, he pointed out something I had never seen or even thought about before–the fact that the Confederate States never officially surrendered to end the War of Northern Aggression. I call it by that title because that’s what it was.

On pages 411 and 414 he commented that the Confederacy had no formal end. Interesting. I knew that both Germany and Japan had signed surrender documents to conclude World War 2, but the fact that the Confederate States government never signed any intrigued me. Most people just assume, and the “history” books seem content to have it that way, that when Lee surrendered at Appomattox it was all over. Most never think beyond that. All that General Lee surrendered at that point was the Army of Northern Virginia, nothing else. He had no authority to surrender anything other than Confederate soldiers under his command.

After reading Mr. Dowdey’s book I began looking through other histories of the War to see what they said. All the ones I came across said nothing. They mentioned the surrender of the various Confederate armies but nothing else. Mr. Dowdey was the first person I ever read that brought out this point. No official Confederate government surrender. Now in the 1990s there just wasn’t much around about that subject, at least that I could locate, and I did look.

At this point in time there seems to be a little more. I did a Google search recently on this and found several blog spots and some websites that now…

Karl Marx had both disciples and close friends that took part in the 1848 socialist/communist revolts in Europe. Lots of them came here and sought to repeat their socialist experiment here during the War of Northern Aggression. Guess which side they ended up on?

Any who have studied the history of the War of Northern Aggression has, no doubt, heard of the infamous Dahlgren Papers. The Dahlgren Papers are a set of orders found on the body of Colonel Ulric Dahlgren after he was killed in Judson (Kill-Cavalry) Kilpatrick’s bungled attempt at a raid on Richmond, Virginia in 1864, supposedly to attempt to free federal prisoners of war. Writer Joseph Galloway labeled Kilpatrick’s raid “poorly planned and badly executed,” and said it was “A Moe, Larry, and Curly kind of caper.”
