Oh come on. The value of those forts was minimal compared to the cost of the war, especially considering that the north itself was more than willing to shell them and/or burn them down once they were in Confederate hands.
To answer your question, why did they attack the forts: Umm, because they were at war?
They were not at war. War was started by the attack on the forts. The only way to regain the fort and the states, is to attack them. The north damn well knew this, and they are the ones that started the war by those acts.
