like to hear opinions and solutions as to how the situation should be
handled.
I will give the real solutuion that was imposed during the war after a week
or
so when many opinions have been offered.

There was a large factory producing torpedo gyroscopes and timeing
devices
for the German submarine service. It was located in the midst of a very
populated area where the highly skilled workers lived with their families.
These workers were near irreplaceable. It took many years to learn the
needed
skills, and without these workers production and quality would have been
dramatically down graded. One more point. This factory was not in any
country
with which America or England was at war. What would you have done?
Remember
these German torpedoes were slaughtering American and British seamen and
denying food and arms to England. What would you have done? Opinions?

Bomb 'em, claim it's an accident, blame it on weather, inexperience,
confusion and other stuff. Offer lots of cash as reparations. Tell 'em
you'll make a "no bomb" zone that you'll try to stick to.

They are selling war material to the Nazis, why bother to be "nice". Just
destroy the factory and the workers.
