Opinion of the Dresden Bombings

[??????????]

Anyone who tries to rationalize the massacre of Dresden should have their head examined.
I am stunned that there is even an argument in 2009 about this atrocity.

Lincoln didn't say what is in your signature, fwiw.

And Dresden was necessary to break the will of the Germans.

Nietzsche was a lunatic. And your signature is still wrong.

One of the greatest photographs ever.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

Or you could mention how that photo is, in fact, doctored to hide the fact that the solider in the photo is wearing multiple wrist watches.  That's the communist ideal of personal property at its finest, right there.

Or, that in the original you can see soldiers looting german homes in the background.

You have to understand that for Russians this photograph symbolises the victory over the greatest theat that Russia ever faced, achieved at terrible cost and after the country suffered horrible destruction. I'm not saying that it is the correct attitude, but one must not forget about the historical significance of the picture.

Russia deserved everything it got as well. I feel no sympathy for either the Nazis or Soviets.

They deserved to have their country destroyed without provocation and to incur 10 million civilian casualties?

LOL. Stalin was a mass murderer as well. Still a Soviet apologist I see.

And yet it wasn't mass murderers that were killed. I guess it's justifiable if it "hurt" Stalin.

Under your premise killing German soldiers would have been wrong as well.

GM, I do not regard the killing of Soviet civilians as a good thing. However, the Soviet Union should have been destroyed by the allies in the same way as Germany was destroyed. The USSR was just as guilty in many was as Nazi Germany of war atrocities. That's why I have little sympathy for the blood letting of the Soviet Army on the eastern front.

You can't follow that? You need to take a break from the drinking my friend.

...and your signature is still wrong, btw.
