I was reading this post in the world news forum and it got me thinking, if Palestinian resistance groups are regularly branded as terrorists for firing "dumb" munitions at israeli civilian areas, then by comparison, the allied forces in WWII were just a bunch of genocidal bloodthirsty terrorists.

Between 1939 and 1942 the policy of bombing only targets of direct military significance was gradually abandoned in favour of a policy of "area bombing" - the large-scale bombing of German cities in order to destroy housing and civilian infrastructure. Although killing German civilians was never explicitly adopted as a policy, it was obvious that area bombing must lead to large-scale civilian casualties. |

The bombing of Dresden, led by Royal Air Force (RAF) and followed by the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) between February 13 and February 15, 1945, remains one of the more controversial Allied actions of World War II. The exact number of casualties is uncertain, but most historians agree that the firebombing resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of people. |

The difference is that we won the war, the Palestinians didn't. Therefore, we get to twist history as we see fit. Simply the way the world works.

To anwser ur question simple, yes they were terrorist.
The bombing of Germany during WW2 is one of the biggest war crimes ever.
It had no purpos what so ever to bomb the cities.
And what happend to the fuckers who did it? Nothing. They should all be hanged!

Interesting, it goes both ways you know. London was regularly bombed during, funnily enough, the "Blitz".

2 wrongs dont make a right
when i grew up in germany you could still see churches and other buildings in ruins still , i could not imagine a whole town looking like that with 40000 dying in one night cause of fire bombs.
It was wrong what the germans did , but the british/us werent any better by doing that , not to mention how conventry/london doesnt compare to the dresden hamburg berlin bombings.
anyway , at least we in western europe learned from it.

In this context, isn't dropping nuclear bombs in Japan much worse than anything else?

History is a matter of facts, not a matter of opinion and the fact is the Allied forces had to destroy the war machine which ravaged the world, basing their regime on power, genocide, glorification of death. there were those who tried to negotiate with Hitler, one of them is Chamberlin and history will always remember him as they remember spineless scum.
In a war there is evil and there is the lesser of evil, just remember that because of those "terrorists" you are here typing your opinions and not marching in uniform some place.

if not for hitler stalin would start same shit, it's just hitler was first
unlike h [who was sitting in his bunker scared shitles] stalin actually gave direct orders to execute ppl he needed to get rid of for his personal paranoia
i'm not saying allies were terrorists, after all it's war ffs they kill us we kill them back, thats how it was and always will be

What Stalin was never Expansionist before Poland. Opportunist yes. But he never planned a war against Hitler. Hell they were supplying them with Coal, oil and other raw materials before Barbarossa/
