I Doubt it though that this is the case with this but it seems the people are supportive of his methods so well they think it's worth the price so far but that'll change if he goes to far which I suspect he will one day.

Was the end of the war in Europe hastened by Bomber Commands attacks on civilian targets? Did Britain capitulate when the Luftwaffe bombed London?
