There are real people on the other side as well. Don't forget them.


I'll give you some food for thought.

During WW2 Allies bombed 3rd reich's weapon factories, and occupied French cities. A lot of civilians died, really a lot.

Do you think semi-enslaved German citizens working in 3rd reich's weapon factories wanted any much less to have these factories bombed?

Do you think French under German occupation wanted any much less to have British bomb the occupied cities?

No, survivors recall it seeing occupation government buildings bombed the most joyful moments, which led a lot of people to regain their spirits, and join the resistance.
