>>He was trying to explain to me that the Americans probably killed lots of Jews in their bombing raids.<<

The Germans enslaved not only Jews but non-Jews from all over Europe, and worked them to death in factories and defense plants, so yes, there's no doubt that Allied bombing (American, British, Soviet) killed non-combatants who were enslaved by the Germans.

But Allied bombing did not kill as many as the Nazis killed by mass executions. Not just Jews, also Poles, Russians, again, people from all over Europe. My recollection is that 75% of the Polish Army was killed. Millions of Russian POWs were deliberately starved to death.

By the civilized, cultured Germans and their allies.

I don't know how many Chinese, Koreans and Manchurians the Japanese killed.

It was a brutal, bloody war, but we were the good guys. Nobody except the Jews seem to remember what the bad guys did.
