I didn't say it was. I said it was:
1. to send a message and
2. to make the Germans pay.

Dresden was not a message to the Germans, the message was for the
advancing Soviet Army.
It was a warning and a display of US/Brit. air power.

While there were POW camps for German and Italian prisoners, there
were no internment camps for German-American or Italian-American
civilians, like there were for the Japanese American civilians. The
internment of the Nisei was racism pure and simple.

Some parts of history it's probably best not to give little kids all the
horrific details on. For instance, it's one thing to say millions of people
were killed in the holocaust, but

PBS did a special just on Dresden, I think it was part of the Ken
Burns deal, but I could be mistaken. I think I posted something about
it here when it was on.
If that special was to be believed, the goal was terrorism, basically.
We did what we swore we'd never do -- and arguably got into the
Yeah, I suppose it could just be that our history teachers are generally hired
for their ability to coach football around here rather than thier ability to
teach. It's a common thing in this part of the state.

Dresden was not necessary at all. And it needlessly destroyed a beautiful
city. Dresden had little to no effect on the war. The war was already as
good as over. The bombing of Dresden was to make the Germans pay. That's it.
It had a train yard, sure, but the rail infrastructure was already destroy

You mean like how the Israeli's go after folks in Palestine? I can remember
being taught about that at least as far back as Junior High (6th - 8th grade
for me)...I can say for sure before that. I learned about the POW camps in
hih school as i was a WWII buff...but was also taught about them in

Plain and simple.
