Dresden was an entirely civilian target though, they bombed it for fun. To quote Churchill right after: "It seems to me that the moment has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the sake of increasing the terror, though under other pretexts, should be reviewed". Dresden was not the only city being bombed to shits, Cologne, Paderborn and Japanese Hiroshima and Nagasaki. All that needs to be remembered is that the allies aren't only "the good guys" is what one should take from this.

It makes sense to bomb tactical places like factories etc, bombing civilians for fun is what America's done for decades though, just look at the shit Obama's done.
