Lot of yammering, some good stuff too, some I have on ignore, and I am sure I am not missing anything there.

Lets get a cpuple things off the table though, before we all get any more stupid for the waste of bandwidth.

First and foremost...No one assembled 21 men, travaled 1500 miles to simply "rob a bank"
The phrase is over used, but this might ACTUALLY be, "The MOST stupid thing I ever heard"
Or at least , the stupidist thing since Bluedog claimed there are texts from the 1st century that prove the existance of god, or since Dum1 claimed Hillary Clinton is a neo con

moving on...

Second, there were from the first days of the conflict till the final days of the war, efforts by the CSA to forge an allience, be it covert or public, with Canada. This is a given that no one but a historical illiterate would deny

The only question, is to fill in the blanks as to the extent of the connection between this raid, and the war effort

That is all for now...carry on
