Re: Why was Coventry 'coventriert'?

[quote=tcolvin;94033]



Are you saying that everything in war is justified?
For example was the Holocaust justified?
quote]

Linking the Holocaust to the war; experiments in extermination and the concentration camps existed without the war. The war only allowed the Holocaust to expand.

For that matter, comparing area bombing to the Holocaust is "apples and oranges". The extermination in camps had zero bearing on the outcome of the war. Area bombing which included civilian areas was a means to the end of the war, whether it was only 5% effective or 100%.
