And the difference between a war criminal and a hero ? One belongs to the losing side, the other to the winning side.
For someone to be a criminal it has to be against the law.
Since the topic is WW2 and bombing then crimes are a difficult subject. Under a rough application of the other laws which could be sort of utilised then Dresden ticks all the boxes as a legitimate target.
The laws which should have applied were never drawn up and agreed and the provisional agreements went out the window in the invasion of Poland, that provisional agreement and any attempts to reintroduce any form of new agreement was killed outright with the bombing of Rotterdam.


As for the anniversary itself wasn't it good to see the people again turning the neo nazi nuts efforts in the city into a pathetic little side show.
