Quote:Oh and just in case you are confused, bombings as in bombs from airplanes during a war and bombings as in car bombings etc, are two different things.
Interesting perspective. Why? Dresden was a terror bombing. It had no strictly strategic purpose. The A-bomb was a 'show of strength', demonstrating "how far America would go". I'm afraid your distinction is a bit arbitrary.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
William Shakespeare - Richard II
