This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My point was that they were trying to pick epicenters that would do maximum damage to military facilities such as shipyards, ammo depots, command centers.

While there was no dedicated areas specified as a military base these types of logistical facilities were still located in the city, just like every city in Japan at the time.

And I wasn't trying to deny that attacking civilians wasn't a factor (as I said, there was a factor of racism and revenge). I was pointing out that strategic military thinking was still a factor in the target locations.

But I doubt you care about any of that, since you're focussing on a single factor to push that the whole argument is black and white
