"I notice you have nothing to say about German terror bombing".

For a simple reason - well educated persons know that the British, not the Germans, started the cycle of terror bombing civilians. The RAF Air Secretary admitted it in his book.

From: Advance to Barbarism: The Development of Total Warfare from Sarajevo to Hiroshima (Paperback)
by Frederick J. Veale (Author) on Amazon.com

". . . The accusation leveled against the Germans that they deliberately caused harm to civilians is refuted by the fact that the British started this breach of international law. Veale cites J.M. Spaight's book BOMBING VINDICATED to prove that the British started the deleiberate of German civilians on May 11, 1940 which Spaight called the "Splendid Decision." While the battle for France was being waged hundreds of miles from German civilians, the British, who should have focused their bombing to military targets such as bridge networks in France, bombed innocent civilians who had nothing to do with the Battle of France. In fact, Veale makes a good point that had the British concentrated their bombing on these bridge networks, destruction of these networks would have stopped Hitler's mechanized forces due to the lack of getting gasoline supplies. The German offensive would have stalled and would have been defeated."

Such as yourself, I'm sure. < /sarcasm>

That assumes the bombing would have actually destroyed the bridge networks.

Perhaps you're unaware that this took place in the era before laser designators and "smart-bombs".

You are nothing but a Nazi-sympathizing, (probably) Holocaust-denying Kraut apologist. The Brits started terror bombing? Ever heard of Rotterdam? Or Belgrade?

Oh yes. Another thing. You are a historical ignoramus with a malfunctioning center for logical analysis of evidence (if it even exists).

Before you start defending the German war machine of 1939-45 you should really study the facts about historical timelines and escalation...
