20. Carpet bombing was a feature of the Vietnam War that
was so despised by antiwar folks. Did we also carpet bomb in WW2?

I guess my point is that if we look back on WW2 with nostalgia for the "greatest generation" we also have to look back on it realistically in terms of the death and destruction of innocent civilians that we decried when Israel did the same thing (and for the same reasons)that we did.
