Also, it was more like a couple hundred thousand murdered. Not 25k.
The 25k number comes from the SS themselves. The propaganda numbers literally just added 0's on their versions of the reports, which was then used for propaganda purposes. That's what got circulated to the press and other agencies, but the death toll was never even close to 100,000. Even the actual extent of the bombing shows this. Dresden, as a whole, was not targeted. Only specific sections of Dresden were targeted, and most of the city was not destroyed.
That fact that everyone here believes the lies from WWII is simply, well .. believable, actually. Especially for this sub.
... The SS lied about their number to themselves?
I suppose the Nazis were just another ZOG, right?
Couple hundred thousand? That's a lot, where are you getting that from?
History books? If you've read something else, you're reading propaganda.
Which history books? Provide references if you can.
he doesn't know what he's talking about. the casualty figures for Dresden are well documented. We know for a fact that the dead were somewhere between 22,000 and 25,000 for the Dresden raids, based on German statistics at the time.
The US did kill hundreds of thousands in bombing Japan if you add together all the firebombing and nukes.
I don't consider Wikipedia a trustworthy source, but I have to agree that 200,000 and 500,000 is too high. The highest I've heard is in the low 100k.
The actual German authorities said 22-25k. Goebbels lied and added a zero, because that was his job as propaganda minister.
It's obvious to anyone who knows about strategic bombing of cities to see that even the 22-25k figure was high, and it really isn't conceivable for it to be higher under the circumstances. The firebombing of Tokyo, for example, was far, far more destructive, on the same level as an atomic bomb (it killed more people than the actual nukes) and yet it only killed about 100k.
