dresden.

60 years ago british and americans bombed dresden, a city full of refugees, wounded, sick. there was no reason. no military value. no sense. at least 35.000 were literally vaporized. the power of the heat-bombs would burn them to ashes before they noticed. as much as other cruelties during the war, dresden can never be forgotten. but it can be forgiven. a german author said about dresden “let’s forgive in the name of a city that showed us how close mankind came to suicide”.

i believe.
