The people you’re talking about were at war with another country. The people in this country are near war with their own government. Totally different. A lot of it is just talk, of course, but people are really getting fed up.
And as an aside, the Germans kept fighting for 2 more years after Hamburg was firebombed. The Allies gave most German cities the same treatment over the next 2 years.
Well that's just it, "at war" vs "near war". Political disagreement is pretty trivial compared to bombs.

Yes. The video I was watching was focused on the whole idea of fighting a war with bombs. It was thought that you couldn't win by bombing and the English general, or was he a civilian, in charge said "well it's never been tried before and we shall see".
Very good study for a perspective on the petty race bating and bathroom bating that occupies the populous today.
