This is what those Hun bastards did to the beautiful city of Warsaw

So don’t cry to me about Dresden.
The Nazis did indeed do horrible things to Warsaw. That in no way serves as justification for firebombing Dresden when the war was all but won by the allies already.
Even Churchill wrote:
Churchill subsequently distanced himself from the bombing.[93][99][100] On 28 March, in a memo sent by telegram to General Ismay for the British Chiefs of Staff and the Chief of the Air Staff, he wrote:
“It seems to me that the moment has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the sake of increasing the terror, though under other pretexts, should be reviewed. Otherwise we shall come into control of an utterly ruined land… The destruction of Dresden remains a serious query against the conduct of Allied bombing. I am of the opinion that military objectives must henceforward be more strictly studied in our own interests than that of the enemy.
The Foreign Secretary has spoken to me on this subject, and I feel the need for more precise concentration upon military objectives such as oil and communications behind the immediate battle-zone, rather than on mere acts of terror and wanton destruction, however impressive.”
The bombing of Dresden was all about Coventry, not Warsaw.
