Expert my rear-end. Apparently the "expert" has no clue as to the degree of destruction of cities destroyed by the allies during WW2. Berlin, Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki ..... were virtually obliterated.
Guess Stalingrad and Berlin were minor skirmishes.
AP news….
Agit-Prop
Not to mention Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The headline says “in history”.
I guess these “experts” have never heard of Carthage.
Ghenghis Khan anyone?
“Guess Stalingrad and Berlin were minor skirmishes.”
The article is written for the younger brainwashed generations that not only know nothing of history but have no desire to learn it.
The context in which the stats they give are hard to follow.
Another little goodie they should compare to is the A-bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Off hand, for single strikes, I’d say they were the most destructive is history in terms of both buildings and people. And those that survived had to deal with the radiation which killed many thereafter. I’m not saying those bombings were wrong, what I’m saying AP is full of BS with their propaganda.
And the Japanese were not exactly little angels when it came to the massive slaughter of Chinese in WWII.
The German military was in charge of the Holocaust, so I’d say that was a military campaign. For a military to kill civilians massive quantities, it does not matter if they shoot them, blow them up or gas them, it’s still a campaign.
AP is full of BS up and beyond their gills.
Entire German cities reduced to rubble. But hey, most of AP’s readers don’t know history.
Good! I guess hamas will turn in their weapons and surrender now and release the hostages? I suppose that breaking the cease-fire was not such a good idea after all. Starting the war and taking hostages might have been a worse idea.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki no big deal? Dresden?
Not to mention Hamburg, Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki.

They must have forgotten to mention Ghengis Khan.
Was thinking along the same lines. I’d even add the Russians lost more in the early battles on the Eastern Front.
