If they can see those things then the lights of Dublin are
indeed irrelevant,


You are very bright are you? The lights of Dublin guided the bombers to
Liverpool, the tower told them they were there.


So do you believe they could see the tower from Dublin ?

note while the Anglican cathedral was
started in 1904 it wasnt completed intil 1960


Competed in 1979 with its work force off to New York to work at St.

John's.
The tower was complete in the 1920-30s

so I suspect the highly visible waterfront
was rather more of a clue at night.


The tower was the giveaway.


No lights needed then

Fact is Luftwaffe bases were in Norway and France, they werent
about to fly across the entire width of England, cross the Irish Sea
and then come back again. Its just silly.

You obviously don't know. German bases were well into France and they

flew
up the Irish Sea to get Liverpool, Belfast and Glasgow.


Indeed which meant turning right and following the coast of Walese
not turning left to Ireland.


Go away! You don't say. You figured that one out!


Seems you didnt

The Norwegian based
planes would go across the North Sea.


A route that hardly goes via Dublin


You figured that one out too! You are hard of thinking.


Better than some it seems.
