if it happened today it will be called a “genocide”

Waging war to prevent genocide is not itself genocide.

There’s waging war and then there’s firebombing a city with little military value, murdering 25000 civilians.

Actually it did have military value.

If only there were a name for crimes committed during wartime, a term that doesn’t necessitate calling it a “genocide” when that has its own, separate meaning.

I’d disagree that Dresden in particular was strategically insignificant. The bigger issue is however that Germany and Japan were engaged in Total war, meaning all production capabilities were aimed at furthering the war efforts. Considering they didn’t pull any punches when it came to killing British civilians (~100k give or take) it was more than justified to do the major firebombings.

Should you ever choose to visit Germany I’d highly recommend talking through this with some locals. Current day germans who aren’t outright nazis usually don’t resent the allies for it. Nazi Germany had to lose the war by all means necessary and personally I’m really glad we lost it.
