Sorry, since when did anything other than land invasion end the European theater of wwII? I'm pretty sure it's not widespread knowledge that Hitler killed himself in response to the bombing of Dresden...

The fact that you can't tell the difference between a music festival and the kind of infrastructure important to warfare that were bombed during WWII doesn't surprise me in the slightest, but it does sadden me.

This is so absurdly nitpicky I'm not sure what to say. The bombings of Germany DEFINITELY damaged their industry, which helped end the war.

Are you really implying that no innocent civilians were butchered by the ground invasion of Europe? (Also, hilariously, you left out that Japan was literally defeated without a ground invasion of Japan. Same war, buddy.)

You just seem like you can't accept wars mean violence against a people, not a military/government. It's a child's propaganda understanding of warfare that you have.
