Were the Allies Justified in Bombing German Cities?
The sole purpose in the role of the country is to protect the citizens of the acres that is exactly what Great Britain did for its nation and for the end of worldly concern War II. Great Britain had to do what was best for the country and should be justified as a result from the barrage fire of the German cities in account of the nations pride, a misinterpreted perception of morals and also due to being forced into a faithful situation. Although the casualties and ostracize impact that Germany faced, Britains actions in bombing the German cities should be justified due to the position they were in.Britain did not want to allow Germany to walk all over their nation that they had taken pride of and knew the consequences of the feasible outcomes if they had not acted against Germany. People of Great Britain would be hurt and the country had just wanted to protect its citizens (Document 5). Britain saw that there would have been a larger negative effect if they had not bombed the Ge rman cities compared to if they did. They perceived the bombing to have been a last chance to end the war.After the conflict in the midst of Russia and Germany, the Allies had seen Germanys air force as a Achilles heel which resulted in the bombing (Document 4). If they had not acted against Germany, Operation Sea Lion would have continued to commence and casualties would near likely have resulted the same towards the British (textbook p. 229). The product of Germanys determination to take over Great Britain would have meant to enable Hitler to have full govern over Europe. We would think that the countries would play along the rules implied in the war between the countries but that would be another sad misunderstood perception.From the beginning of the war, there was no real perception to what was wrong or right there were no morals once a country entered the war because they must do whatever precautions they would do for the best of their country. This is exactly what Great Br itain did. Their actions should not even be justified compared to Hitlers past decisions and false promises he had made with the Allies. The war itself had no limits because Hitler had already surpassed them all. The fault of Hitlers decisions was taken upon the citizens of Poland when Hitler decided to backstab a nation and take over the country (Textbook).Because of the false promises that were not lived up to, the trust between the Allies and Germany slowly slipped further away. Even though attacking them was not the best method, it was the only thing to do for the sake of the nation. They were merely giving Germany a taste of its own medicine due to the past decisions made by Hitler. Dont talk to me about morality in war, there is no such thing is quoted from a soldier from the Bomber Command veterans in 1975. This represents how nobody considers what is right or wrong in war and how they would sacrifice anything to do what is best for the nation (Document 8).Even if they did ha ve a fair understanding of morals, they still had to consider the consequences if they had not shot for the opportunity. In any difficult circumstances, a country must look past the harsh side effects and do what is best for its nation despite of it. The Allies were put into a tight situation and could not just stand by and watch their country take the negative impact by Hitlers actions. The one who had made the front move was Germany as they attacked Britain by sending plans to bomb London in order to seize control over the country.Germany is to blame for the reasoning behind the instalment of Great Britains actions towards them (textbook p. 228). Britain could not just sit back and watch so naturally, they returned the favour that they given them this would give them fair ground that they deserved in their stance. As a natural human reaction, they retaliated against the Germans and fought back which resulted into the bombing of the German cities (Document 6). Hitler should be at fault to put the civilians through the wrath of the British and should be the right to blame rather than the country that is merely defending itself (Document 7).
