Is There a Better Way?

I think that using siege was not necessary because the Union harmed the civilians and not just the army. I think that it is not justified and that this is not how the won the war, I think that the south did not deserve what the Union did. The Union could have won without siege .I also think that the Union should of just hurt the army and not the civilians because the south did not deserve what the Union did to them. Maybe they should've just cut off the army's supplies so that the civilians would be able to eat and not be involved in the Civil war. I think that they should of not used the siege strategy.
