Well, I think most people (including Allied pilots) who know anything about it would agree that what we did to Dresden was a crime on many levels. The war was all but over in Europe, and attacking the defenseless city packed with refugees served no strategic purpose.
Yes, indeed, the view must be addictive up there on the moral "high" ground.
Doing the "right thing" is like shooting fish in a barrel, when you know what is going to happen, when a risk others had to take, is no risk for you.
Have at it, our opinions mean nothing, that WAR is history, it is moot.
But, I worry about how such fuzzy thinking will endanger us in these times.
But, then I cheer up again when I remember the rule of thirds!
You are entitled to your opinion - Winston Churchill is entitled to his.
I'll take Winston, as always.
