If we want to compare the Fire Bombing of Dresden , the nuking of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to modern day Terrorism I can certainly draw many valid comparisons. Bombings are fucking terror from the sky. Just ask the kids. As far as the aggression of Germany and Japan during the war there is no doubt they needed to be stopped. My thoughts about the strife in the Middle East today are that if we stripped religion out of the equation the political disputes are solvable. So, religion is the aggressor this time.
