>Then you repudiate the actions of the Canadian War machine in the First and Second World Wars when Canadian planes dropped bombs in huge quantities in the hopes that it would end the wars. Canadians killed hundreds of thousands of poor German Civilians, whose only crime was to be born German. Will you start by apologising to the German people for the Slaughter this country imposed on the poor Germans because their country was led by a madman?

I'm glad you brought this up. I don't support or justify the burning of Dresden by Britain or the fire-bombing of Tokyo by the Americans. I don't support the Soviet Union executing large numbers of Germans who surrendered. It was that sort of action in previous times that was the fuel for new wars to begin, and how could such inhumanity be justified? If it were me, I would apologize to Germans for the burning of Dresden because it was a war crime. Firebomb Hitler, firebomb his army, do not target civilians and say it is justified.
