The South, as soon as they became (in their eyes) a separate nation, promised WAR if the North did not push slavery into the territories. Kansas had just voted against slavery 98% -2%, and here the South was promising WAR if Kansas did not accept slavery. See Richmond newspaper March 23, 1861,

In other words, the USA was not only attacked by the South, but the SOuth issued ultimatums to spread slavery. Lincoln kicked their ass, and rightly so.
