Here's the crucial passage:

All the old problems - the weather, the enemy fighters, the jet stream, the high-altitude wear on the engines, political limitations on bombing civilians - were now irrelevant. There was to be no public objection to LeMay's burning down the industrial and residential center of the Japanese empire - too many stories about Japanese atrocities toward subjugated peoples and prisoners of war had filtered back to the American people.

Don't think it can't happen again.

My threshold's been exceeded for, let's see...almost three years now.

Yep, no problem here, General LeMay - you may start bombing at will.

Anything can happen......
