	Strategic bombing during World War II - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In the interwar years, British calculations of the likely effect of a strategic bombing from the data gathered during the German campaign suggested that a strategic attack on an enemy's cities using the latest generation of bombers would knock an enemy out of the war without the need for the stalemate of trench warfare.
		So when the war broke out in 1939, Britain's RAF had just 488 bombers of all kinds, mostly obsolescent, with only about 60 of the capable new Vickers Wellington: many of the remainder had insufficient range to reach the Ruhr (let alone Berlin), had negligible defensive armament, and could not carry a useful payload.
		He accepted area bombing, knowing it would kill civilians, because it was a choice of area bombing or no bombing at all, and area bombing would mean dropping large quantities of bombs into an area full of activities and industries being harnessed for the German war effort.

	A Brief History of the U.S. Army in World War II
		World War II was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind.
		Waging war with the implacable ruthlessness of totalitarian regimes, both sides committed wholesale atrocities—mistreatment of prisoners of war, enslavement of civilian populations, and, in the case of the Jews, outright genocide.
		The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 and 9 August and the Soviet declaration of war on 8 August forced the leaders of Japan to recognize the inevitable.

	Bombing of Tokyo in World War II information - Search.com
		The key development for the bombing of Japan was the B-29, which had an operational range of 1500 miles (2,400 km); almost 90% of the bombs dropped on the home islands of Japan were delivered by this type of bomber (147,000 short tons, 133,000 metric tons).
		Unlike the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which were at least partially intended to force Japan to capitulate immediately, fire-bombing, which killed more civilians in total, was carried out as a long-term strategy to destroy Japan's ability to produce war materials as well as undermine the Japanese Government's will to continue the war.
		In the context of total war, the large number of Japanese civilians killed by strategic bombing was seen as acceptable by the American administration.

	[No title]
		Aerial bombing during World War II was a crude and controversial form of aerial warfare, especially the aerial bombing of cities.
		The fact that the mobilisation of civilian industrial resources was essential to win a war against an industrial state led to the claim that the destruction of the enemy\'s civilian infrastructure would reduce the materiel available to an enemy for waging war.
		This led to concepts like Strategic bombing where the target was the strategic reserves of the enemy and in which the destruction of civilian and military infrastructure was blurred to the point where no distinction remained.

	Bambooweb: Bombing of Dresden in World War II
		It has been claimed that the bombing was at the request of the Soviet Union, to attack a German armoured division in transit through the city.
		The US Strategic Bombing Survey says nothing about Dresden but says: "On three nights in late July and early August 1943 it struck Hamburg in perhaps the most devastating single city attack of the war; about one third of the houses of the city were destroyed and German estimates show 60,000 to 100,000 people killed.
		The Dresden bombing is a strongly debated decision, and the action is still widely perceived as lacking military justification, even within the context of the controversial area-bombing policy pursued against Germany by Britain's Bomber Command in 1942-1945.

		This change of policy was agreed by the Cabinet in 1942 after a paper was presented by Professor Lindemann, the British government's leading scientific adviser with a seat in the Cabinet, proposing the area aerial bombing of Geman cities.

		For instance, the Strategic bombing survey conducted by the United States after World War II determined that German industrial production in aircraft, steel, armor, and other sectors had risen during the war despite strategic bombing.
