More than 500,000 German civilians and refugees, mostly women and children, were slaughtered by Britain’s saturation bombing in 1945, one of the worst massacres of all time.
Over 700,000 phosphorus bombs were dropped on 1.2 million defenseless inhabitants of German city Dresden under Britain’s then Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s order, which not only reduced one of the greatest centers of northern Europe to flaming ruins, but also led to one of the worst war crimes of the Second World War.
Dresden’s bombing in February, 13, 1945 was so relentless that some historians believe it was the height of Winston Churchill’s madness.
“I do not want suggestions as to how we can disable the economy and the machinery of war, what I want are suggestions as to how we can roast the German refugees on their escape from Breslau,” Churchill said once.
Toward the end of the war, Churchill’s desired firestorm was finally created. More than 260,000 bodies and residues of bodies were counted after British Royal Air Force (RAF) and the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) assaulted Dresden. However, those who perished in the centre of the city could not be traced, as the temperature in the area reached 1600 degree Centigrade.
Dresden’s citizens barely had time to reach their shelters and those who sought refuge underground often suffocated as oxygen was pulled from the air to feed the flames. Others perish in a blast of white heat, heat strong enough to melt human flesh.
When the bombing started, no one could imagine that in less than 24 hours all those innocent people could die screaming in Churchill’s firestorms.
If there was a war crime, certainly the Dresden tragedy would rank as one of the most sinister of all time. Sadly, however, Churchill, who ordered the slaughter of up to a half million innocent people in this horrifying tragedy, was knighted by Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.
The British queen made Churchill a knight of the Order of the Garter, Britain’s highest order of knighthood.

Interesting that you posted this, just recently, I was speaking with a Jewish person about the war crime of Dresden, much to my surprise, the Jewish person said: “The Germans deserved it – for killing Jews.”
Made my heart very sad because the term, “Lest We Forget”, seems to only apply to “Jewish suffering”, and, collective punishment is then supposedly okay, that is, if Jews have suffered, according to this warped, ethnocentric point of view.
No matter the spin, Dresdin is a war crime as is the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
What do think of Palestine do they deserve it… ??????????
Iraq..????
Afghanistan..???
Pakistan..?
and so on ……….
According to some “Jedeo tribal ideology”, there is no greater suffering than that of “Jewish suffering”, so in that warped, mentally deranged, racist thinking, the above are also not war crimes.
My friend Gilad Atzmon, writes about and exposes the toxicity in this “Jewish Identity Politics” issue very well:

I would say their is no greater suffering of Palestinian which is recent… Do you know Israelis sell the body parts of Palestinian prisoners as well… you need to watch or perhAPS READ world nes apart from CNN or Fox or some others.. have your own investigation and find the facts.
Of course I know all this: I was saying what a Jewish person said to me.
CNN and Fox, are not news, either – it’s mind control and misinformation, Press TV is real news:

Did you check the link to Gilad’s site? He explains the tribal thinking of “Jews”, I say “Jews” in quotation marks because the mental-tribal-identity of people who call themselves “Jews” is based on thinking that Ashkenazi Jews are “Semites”, or another way to say it is: They think that they are direct descendants of the Biblical Jews, which they are not – Ashkenazi Jews are converts.
My apologies if i misunderstood you. Srew them who think it is the biblical myth. Firstly they have to prove if the Bibal is God word or not???? and who is the real author, why the doctrine was done Constantine, he wasnt God right hand man.
Every war is ugly …. too ugly, we had war so long as we (humans) have walked on this earth. Wondering why???!!!
Yep I agree…..:(
No it is not forgotten, never never forgotten.
I am glad we didnt…..:)
you mean you are glad we did not forget , don’t you . Yes I am glad we did not forget I do hope we have learnt the lesson. xxxx
nope we didnt learn yet otherwise US would have never supported the dictators……. and distributed the ammunition to feed the americans……
You mean, then the Americans didn’t learn?
ok let me out it this to make you really understand that western world so called…….
Yes I know and I don’t want to argue. xx
You have right to ask and to have an opinion. but one should bot deny the truth and the fact. And it is not an argument……. it is a pure historical fact.
Yes I agree , but I must away to my bed now. I am glad that we can discuss such things without prejudice we must have evolved a little. night night. xx
offcourse when you right i should agree with you and if i have doubt i should ask u to clarify or perhaps give chance t answer as well u know……. 🙂
