You're pathetic Kurfurst.
If you walked up to me in the street and punched me in the face and then I put you in hospital in return, and you stated moaning that I hurt you, that would, in my book, make you a pussy.
Germany as a nation, at the time had to be shown what war was like
Were German civilians of more value than Russian or Polish civilians?
Nazi Germany had no problems with killing civilians, they were systematic in it.
Just to clarify my position, I spent a lot of time in Munich, I like Germany and in general I like Germans. I don't think bombing civilians is a good thing, I do however understand that sadly that is how the 2nd world war was fought, by all participants.
I didn't really appreciate how badly Germany was hit during WW2 until I noticed all the little plaques on historic buildings that say "rebuilt 1948" or "reconstructed 1950", I felt some sympathy for them, the flip side is whilst I was there I also visited Dachau I felt sympathy for the people who were murdered there too.
You can say what you want about how bad Britain has behaved in the past, it's probably true. That has no effect whatsoever on how they conducted themselves once the idiot that was Adolf Hitler decided that lots of people needed to die because he didn't like them, or because he wanted their resources..
