Yes

Bombs do that, incendiary bombs are very powerful.

bombers that would've needed to carry more than twice their maximum loads to hit the total given

no look

thermite burns at 4000 degrees fahrenheit

the average cremator burns at 2000 degrees fahrenheit

it takes a cremator several hours to burn a body

in an isolated space

with heat on all sides

a bomb in open air burning for 30 seconds cannot char a body

twice the temperature does not give you an over ten fold increase in speed

bruh..

But you're ignoring that a crematorium takes time to reach its maximum temperature, this is literally a chemical explosion.

Also, there's no way the krauts could've pulled off a hoax this big. Immediately after war? Being humiliated on the world stage? Their expatriates locked up in POW camps? Even today, mentioning Dresden or having anti-interventionist views regarding WW2 is regarded as soft Nazi apologia.

the soviets completely covered the area afterwards and they were the soviets

in fact, the east germans played a major role in inflating the death toll

look if you can accept that the holocaust was fake then how is a single city completely infeasible to you

Because, again, krauts literally didn't have the influence to propagate such a myth.

it would've looked very good for the soviets post-war if they could spin the firebombing into the evils of the west

and the soviets were no strangers to editing the truth

they kept the afloat the myth of hitler being alive, when they had his teeth all the time

I can imagine stalin telling his advisors "twenty thousand? I'll see you half a million! They used a thousand bombers! Who cares how impossible it sounds?"

You think Soviets would've felt sympathy for the Nazis they were told to hate the entire war? It was much easier to tout the famine in India or the lynching in the US as an example of evils of the West.

How many media companies were owned by krauts post-WW2? Meanwhile, Jews are building their own nation, and are desperate for foreign military aid, they had every reason to propagate the myth, and the means.

I'm not gonna step right out and say that stalin and the soviets directly were in charge

but the east germans most likely clamped down on the myth

with some aid from soviet intelligence to spin it into a convincing little story about how the west flattened a city

and boy oh boy did they get gibs out of it

there was one church in dresden that cost 180 million euro to repair

Hardly. East Germans were basically told to pretend they weren't German, just part of the Soviet Union. The USSR didn't want them to think they were another Socialist country like Yugoslavia, just part of the Union. Invoking Dresden would encourage nationalist fervor, and weaken the influence of the USSR over Germany.

they did it all up in gold and put in a massive organ

all to pay for the alleged bombing

give us your gold, anglo

Why would East Germany propagate the myth and demand money for destroyed churches? Would seem rather uncharacteristic of them to ask for money to repair churches, considering the USSR's atheism.

money and pity, mostly

To rebuild churches and famous landmarks that invoke pre-Soviet Germany?

I don't think anybody wanted to pity the Germans, and if you asked any Englishmen if they felt bad about Dresden, they'd probably say it's payback for the bombs they dropped on us.

I could've been sentimentality that drove the bombings, or more likely, a form of shock and awe, to convince the few Germans still fighting to surrender.

Never forget the rape of Berlin

@hey.free. wifi Wouldn't've happened without allied support, either. The Union sucked, and without our significant military aid in the form of weapons and vehicles, and attacking Germany from another front, they would've fallen to the Germans and the Japs.
