In this episode, I discuss the bloody and destructive Allied bombing campaigns of World War Two. I'm doing this because much of the world has taught WW2 as a black-and-white conflict—a crusade against the evil Axis by the victorious Allies. While the Axis most definitely fit the role of the horrible bad guys, the Allies haven’t always been good guys either. This season we will look into the ferocious, deadly, and destructive allied bombing campaigns of WW2. In Italy, Germany, and Japan, Allied air forces wreaked havoc in residential areas, killing thousands more civilians than the Germans ever did in the blitz. In this episode, we will be taking a look at the bombing campaigns against Germany focusing especially on Dresden. I hope you find this episode interesting and informative.
