Discussion Israel is bombing absolutely everything not just civilian homes.

just now a few members of the civil defense (ldife3 lmadane) got bombed while they were helping to clear up the rubble of a destroyed building. I’m still not sure how many people were there or got injured but what I do know is that the hezb are fighting human animals with absolutely no ounce of mercy or thinking in their minds, and whoever defends these acts in this subreddit is definitely not a Lebanese.

A large number of civilians were melted in Dresden, despite posing no threat - which sounds like a war crime to me.

in some figurative sense? maybe. in a literal sense? absolutely not, bombing cities was 100% fair game in WW2 As explained, Dresden wasn't even that bad compared to others. what made it remarkable was how easily and swiftly the Allies did it and the post war propaganda.

It's a similar thing with Japan. People go on about how terrible it was the nuke Hiroshima and Nagasaki, yet compared to most other cities they were hardly touched. Thousands more died in the conventional bombing of Tokyo, and it did much more damage.

I suggest you go look at pictures of Hiroshima and Nagasaki before and after the bombs. These cities were utterly obliterated by the bombs. A third to half of the population of Hiroshima was kill by the bomb. More people died in the bombing of Tokyo because it was more populous.

Perhaps you should actually visit the sites of those bombings and spend a little time looking at the endless lists of people lost and appreciating the misery and loss of life those bombs caused. Your comment is truly disgusting.
