Yup. If every city and town in Germany had been turned into a Dresden as early as 1943 the war might have ended sooner.
F' the Germans. As you said, every city in Germany should have burned. After what they did to neighboring countries and to helpless innocent Jews. Even today, Germany is hiding much of what the Nazis did. I watched some recent documentaries about hidden Nazi tunnels in mountains, that the authorities are preventing investigators from exploring. Some that got opened got closed off to investigators. It's been reported that many thousands of concentration camp prisoners were herded into the tunnels and sealed inside. U.S. Army forces freed only a fraction of prisoners, most persons on the German prisoner logs were never found. Germany doesn't want the tunnels opened.

That’s not historically accurate. Intentional mass murder like dresden increased German resolve. The correct strategic use of heavy bombers didn’t occurre until 1945 with mass attacks on the transportation networks which resulted in the total shutdown of the German indrustal machine withing 3 months of the start of the campaign.
The advocates for mass murder by bomber delayed the end of the war by almost a year with tactics the Germans had already been proven ineffective in Spain and during the Battle of Britain.
