While Churchill definitely was responsible for the destruction of Dresden, he hardly had anything to do with bombing Tokyo, though. Mostly unrecognized, however, MacArthur and his clear vision, when he on his own decided to keep Hirohito out of any war criminal proceedings by the victorious against Japan pretty much created the foundation on which to build the US-Japan after war relationship so important for the balance of in the Far East politics after WW II. Germany was different, and even since those days, the latent anti American sentiment can be widely heard at any beer table in Germany up to our days. Quite much so these days against Trump, just like in the haydays of Reagan, that "trigger crazy cowboy style nut"! The Nuremberg process? Well, IMHO at least to 50% nothing but the winning party's revenge against the opponents. Jodl and Keitel, after having received their death sentences by The String and with their appeals to having those converted to Death by Execution squads denied: "Yes, while we expected no less than the Death Penalty, we do not deserve this!". A deal had been made before that with the Russians explicitly confirming the String to be it and thus denying the German officers a soldiers death by a rifle command. Sick, sicker - and sicker! /Taro
