Come on, if you're going to make comments on historical issues, make some vague attempt to get your facts right.

Dresden was bombed on February 13th 1945, three months before the German surrender. Estimates of deaths are difficult to make for various reasons, but modern historians and researchers tend to range from approx 30,000 to 130,000. I've never seen a number over 200,000 except from Nazi propoganda and David Irving.
Hm, before I posted this, I checked some links for information about this topic. Although the were german weppages, I doubt that any of them had any nazi background.

there were 600.000 civilians inside the city, around 300.000 bombs were dropped, und you really want to tell me there were only 30.000 casualties?

And even 3 months before germany's surrender it was clear who would win the war.

Mark, I see that you live in london, and I dont want you to understand my posting as an personal affront against english people. But this was a war, and there are soldiers on every side who enjoy doing evil. Just think about the americans in Iraque. Even though most surely have good intentions, there are black sheeps, like those in the prison.
