Patrick, can you release your greatest hit parody songs on national bugle? Lol

“Who but a Jew would drop 2000 pound bombs on unarmed civilians?”

F.J.P. Veale; Advance to Barbarism (1968); Chapter 6:

“Mr. Spaight is not content merely to admit that upon Britain rests the responsibility for starting the practice of bombing civilian populations, but insists that to Britain must be awarded the entire credit for conceiving and carrying into effect this practice…. Finally, he agrees that Hitler only undertook the bombing of the British civilian population reluctantly three months after the R.A.F. had commenced bombing the German civilian population….”

“[I]n March 1942 … the Bomber Command was placed under the direction of Sir Arthur ‘Bomber’ Harris, who inaugurated civilian bombing in the Middle East and India in the 1920s.” — Sheldon Richman; “Killing Noncombatants” (The Journal of Historical Review; Vol. 18, No. 1)

Revilo P. Oliver (Liberty Bell; Nov. 1990; “A Cringing Lord”):

“And if the burden of guilt for satanically depraved crimes against his own people was not sufficient for Lord Hailsham, he specifically shared guilt for the agony and death of all the thousands of his fellow Aryans, innocent men, women, and children, who perished in the fiery holocaust of Dresden and other open cities bombed by Englishmen who had ceased to be human.”

“Aachen is the biggest German town in our hands. It is the most exhilarating sight I have seen for years. The town of some 170,000 inhabitants has not now a single habitable house left in it…. Ten thousand inhabitants are living like rats in cellars among the debris. One air raid alone caused 3,000 civilian deaths…. And it is good to think that what happened in Aachen happened, and goes on happening, in almost every German town.” — Report of British war correspondent, printed in London newspaper, Christmas Eve, 1944. (F.J.P. Veale; Advance to Barbarism (1968))

“The Boer War Remembered”; [i]Journal of Historical Review[/i]; Volume 1, Number 3:

“Lord Kitchener … ordered … a war of total destruction and ruthlessness against a whole people. That meant destroying all livestock and crops, burning down the Boer farms, and herding the women and children into concentration camps. Reports about these camps shocked the entire civilized world….

“In a very real sense, the Boer war was no war at all, but rather a military campaign of mass murder. While over 26,000 Boer women and children died in the concentration camps, only 6,189 Boer fighting men died of all causes during the war. In fact, more children under the age of 16 perished in the British camps than men were killed in action on both sides….

“Like the losers of the Second World War, the Boers had no International Military Tribunal which they could use to punish the victors for war crimes and crimes against humanity.”

Revilo P. Oliver (“The Yellow Peril”):

“Japan was not really ‘opened’ to foreign commerce until after a British fleet had bombarded the city of Kagoshima and reduced it to rubble, and another British fleet, with a few American, French, and Dutch vessels added to make it seem international, levelled Shimonoseki in 1864….”

“The despatches found on the body of Col. Dahlgren, who was killed near Richmond, will be quoted in disgrace of the name of the United States as long as our name shall last. They prove that the object of the last ‘raid on Richmond’ was to set fire to the city, full of women and children, without notice, and to murder its inhabitants…. This is not warfare; it is assassination. By the laws of war all who were taken in the act of attempting to execute such a plot were liable to be treated, not as prisoners of war, but as spies and assassins. Their lives were forfeited, if the Confederates had chosen to adhere strictly to the laws of war.” (The Old Guard, April 1864, p. 95)

“[T]he Second Massachusetts negro infantry, 700 strong, Col. Draper, a white man, commanding, with one hundred white cavalry, … started for the Northern Neck….

“On the route six negroes violated the person of Mrs. G. eleven times, she being the wife of a soldier of the Ninth Virginia cavalry….

“Where they went they were led by their officers and told, ‘You can go loose and do as you please.'” (The Old Guard, September 1864, p. 200)

“A leading organ of public opinion—of Northern, or New England public opinion—says: ‘We have the power to subjugate, or to annihilate, the South, and one or the other we are going to do.'” (the New York magazine The Old Guard, Feb. 1865)

“This malevolent and venomous spirit … pervaded … Northern society. It was not only the utterance of such mobs as, in New York city, adopted as their war-cry against the South, ‘kill all the inhabitants,’ it found expression in the political measures, military orders, and laws of the government; it invaded polite society, and was taught not only as an element of patriotism, but as a virtue of religion.” (Edward A. Pollard)
