I'm wondering why the troll is let off his leash this time around.

I should have kept quiet from the beginning , that's what I get for laziness and not reading correctly.

The Brits partly redeemed themselves by killing 1 million Nazi women and children with their "Operation Gemorrah" night city firestorm bombing raids which turned "the House of esau in to stubble" (Obadiah 1)!

The British were in bed with the Nazis until the Nazis turned on them!

It was 500,000, not 1 million, and that was combined from the USAAF/RAF.

The Americans precision bombed German factories by daylight to damage their war effort, whereas the British area bombed German cities by night, with the express goal of killing as many Hun civilians as possible & demoralizing them.

That sounds like German Nazi propaganda. The Allies never deliberately set out to kill Nazi "civilians", although unlike today's mamby-pambies, they did at least still realize back then that you don't defeat your mortal enemy by fighting a half-@ssed war.

Firebombing of Dresden was deliberately against german anything that moved, and they deserved it.

The Nazis didn't have a good strategic bomber force for incinerating whole cities, but even so what they did to British civilians was way worse than what any Allied airforce did to them.

Your number is grossly incorrect. Operation Gomorrah killed 42,600 people, not 1 million !

The German 1940-41 Blitz and 1944-45 V rockets together killed 50,000 British civilians.



If the RAF killed 500,000 German civilians in total, then the British did quite well, although 55,000 RAF bomber crews died in the process, poor souls!
