There was no point in further bombing of cities to degrade German "morale." The people had no stomach for the war by this time. But, since the plot to kill Hitler was botched, the Hitlerite dictatorship ruthlessly enforced discipline and the people had no say whether to lay down arms. Hitler, Himmler, Goebbels and the rest knew if they were ever captured alive they would be executed, so they were determined to fight to the last.
Yes, the Germans started the area bombing and "asked for it." We repaid them in full and with considerable interest.
The Gallipoli landings.
The return of Russian POW's to Uncle Joe's tender mercies.
His abandonment of ACM Harris and Bomber Command in the closing days of the war when it suddenly became politically incorrect to recognize their courage and dedication.
Yeah but Hitler Himmler and Goebbels didn’t fight to the last, they killed themselves

Actually the British started it. The Germans held off retaliating for 3 months. The early war propaganda about German bombing cities into submission was just allied propaganda. German tactics where all close air support or bombing transportation targets. The British started a campaign of bombing German cities with no fanfare in order to get the Germans to stop bombing the airfields during the Battle of Britain and in order to layer justify thier own murder the civilians campaign that bomber command was convinced would win the war.
