Firestorm Over Dresden Documentary WWII Allied Bombing and Destruction of Dresden Germany (1:17:32)
Allied Bombing and Destruction of Dresden Germany.
In this (one hour amd seventeen minutes) video, the insane bombing of Dresden in 1945, by the RAF and the USAF is shown. Churchill had decided to order the RAF to attack German civilians, and this incredibly stupid decision was made because the Butt report (Butt was a Jew who revealed that RAF bombing was highly ineffectual) showed that targets were hardly ever hit. The Luftwaffe had highly sophisicated radio equipment while the RAF had very little – dropping bombs by following the coast. The video shows the history of Dresden from early times. It was a "Jewel" on the Elbe river. Dresden was a historic city, with beautiful architecture. Great German composers like Richard Wagner, Richard Strauss, and Von Weber were prominent there. It was a centre of cultural life. Famous pictures by the masters are shown. Superb art is shown. The attack on Dresden by the Allied airforces made no military sense. Ordered by Churchill, the RAF and USAAF attacked the city over a week. The RAF attacked by night, while the USAAF attacked by day. This is a superb video, a MUST SEE. Sadly, after about a half hour, the video moves on to the incredibly stupid and useless attack by Allied bombers. This video shows that the allied raid was a criminal attack. Churchill rapidly distanced himself from the mass killing. The chief of the RAF, Harris, got the blame, even though he was ordered to do the attack by Churchill. To date, nobody has ever been charged for this war crime. The numbers of the victims is discussed, huge amounts of refugees were in the city. Witnesses talk of the horrific deaths of their fellow Germans. After the war, on the orders of Churchill, the RAF, were never given any decorations for being involved in this "terror bombing" campaign.
