From Chris Weber in\u00a0<\/strong>The Weber Report<\/strong><\/em>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A new movie opened this past weekend in the U.S. called “Civil War”, it tries to show what would happen if a new civil war broke out in the U.S. This is not at all a far-fetched idea: at least 40% of Americans believe there will be one within the next decade. Clearly the groundwork has been laid for it over these past several years.<\/p>\n

In America these days you hear a lot about people who once were friends but now hate each other. Or were families that now don’t speak except to yell. It’s like walking through a minefield, except for one thing: neither side knows very much. At least not much about facts concerning past civil wars. \u00a0To start with, they think we’ve only had one civil war before, and on this they couldn’t be more wrong.<\/p>\n

Those many people who are so sure we’re going to have another civil war, they rarely have hard facts at their hand. \u00a0Ask them people what they actually know about the “Civil War\u201d, and they’ll tell you some facts \u2014mostly untrue\u2014 about the only civil war they know about.<\/p>\n
