Subject: Area bombing is not a dirty word.
From: Charles Gray


One thing that is often levied agaionst the bombing campaigns is the
fact that German production increased as the war came to an end (at
least until the last few days when industry was being overrun).

The reason German production increased is because we stopped bombing production
facilites and switched to oil knowing that they could make all they wanted
to,but without oil could never use any of it. So let them waste their labor and
facilites on turning out equipment that could never be used.
