Lines: 10 Would any of you 'experts' be interested in reading about the fire raid on Dresden, Germany? You want to talk numbers and outrage, look it up. Very interesting. While your at it, read 'Slaughterhouse 5'. Your figures on the Japanese raids don't even compare to the raid on Dresden. And this was pulled off with conventional weapons. Ever see a pillar of fire over a MILE high with winds sweeping into the firestorm at over 200 miles per hour, sucking all of the oxygen out of the air and dragging everything in its path into the fire? That,s horror.
