Bull****. Thee were roughly 600 thousand deaths in Dresden in *one
night*. That is more than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined. There were NO
arms manufacturing plants there, or any military bases.


There were roughly 25,000 deaths in Dresden in one night -- due to a
firestorm started by UK bombers.

US bombers were focused on hitting the railyards, a legitimate target,
and had nothing to do with the firestorm.
