The firebombing of Dresden, and the other deliberate bombing of civilian targets by the RAF and the American Air Forces were every bit as much evil war crimes as anything the Germans did. The nuclear bombing of 2 Japanese cities were worse. At least that generation had the intelligence not to go after low ranking soldiers who truly did follow orders. The persecution of these 85 year old men in Germany now (after 65 years) is politically correct insanity.

I can't do nothing but agree with most of your points here. These old UK soldiers were terrorist in the eyes of many, they had no problem killing women and children. It is insane to have the young soldiers on one side be prosecuted, while soldiers on the other side are consider heroes for killing innocent people. A lot of these creeps knew what they did was wrong, that is why so many of them became drunks. Anyone who thinks what they did was heroic or great is a brain dead nationalist.
